Also did this before the pandemic. Took me two years to sell about 100 cards in my collection. In 2021, I used all the proceeds to purchase just Ohtani and Curry cards. Now my collection is only composed of 16 cards from those two guys. I feel like by consolidating, it cured my collecting addiction. 😅
Hey Scottie thanks for sharing. I love the movement and trades you did with those. I extremely think that judge rookie auto logo man is the best and to me one of the top ten favorite cards to whay I look to collect. All the other ones like Soto and Mookie Betts which I know you have been collecting his cards for a while now since watching your channel were amazing and the red gold Schmidt is fire man.
The best thing about your collection is you cn move it with straining your back, I like the concept of a small collection and mine isn't giant, but could do with further consolidation. My collection is in twom parts... about a crate of baseball and a crate of vimntage non sport from 1930-1990. Most of my non sport is complete sets from the 50s to the 70s.... so I think they should be easy to move when the time comes. I have my eye on getting a big card by my standards next year that I want to pay for with card money just like hyou did.
I like some of these, don't like others, but love the red Goldschmidt you picked up! I'm impressed with your ability to move off very rare cards of guys you PC, to pick up other rare PC cards. It's tough to ignore the emotion to look at the bigger picture.
I both like and almost hate your pickups at the same time! I think thats the beauty of it. The one thing that is inarguable is that the Mays Aaron is an absolute grail and worth consolidating for. The Judge is by far your riskiest add and I'll be interested to see how it turns out for you!
Nice moves. I’m not sure I like the dual auto more than the 51 mays. I also think you should have maybe kept the Jose ramirez superfractor. He’s criminally underrated and acknowledged by the hobby-but I think that as he gets closer to retiring-that people will realize how great he was. I also think you should trade that mustache away. lol
its important to diversify your investments and to never put all your eggs in one basket, trust me on that, lol. guys love to talk about trading up to one card through multiple cards. be careful guys. baseball players are still human beings
What you say is true regarding baseball players are human and that carries risk if they do something (example:Wander Franco). I don't look at cards as investments. I am a pure collector and I think Scottie is too looking for mainly PC cards. It's nice knowing that if you buy certain cards, you're really not throwing away your money if you buy vintage or HOF players. Worst case is they don't appreciate, so low risk overall. My PC is Nolan Ryan and been collecting him since 1988. I know his cards will either hold or go up, so that's the only risk I'm willing to take 😂

Hadn't seen that Mays/Aaron auto before. That's a grail right there. Awesome video.

As long as you enjoyed the ride 👍

Nice pickups!
Nice 90's pick ups 😎👍
Great stuff! Love trading, in fact I just did similar. Well done
Both collections are great, but definitely like your end of year collection better. I miss the 51 Bowman Mays on your behalf.
Man, this was the coolest video I've seen in a while on RUclips. Nicely done on the trades and on documenting this.
Geek monster
Dude, again with the mustache?

@floridamaddogg well said.
That pennant on your wall looks like its impaling your neck, very distracting.
Great video! Would be very interested in how you go about facilitating trades. Do you use insta or FB pages?
rockies fan, thats gotta suck
