Cards people who buy modern don't care about

I was trying to make something out of my time at the monthly card show and ended up at a seller's tables where his father usually tags along to help out - I don't ever really get to know the individuals behind the tables, but this guy seems more of a card shark where he busts all sorts of basketball, football, soccer, maybe non-sports unopened along with primarily with higher end singles in his showcases.

His material at the lowest end consists of $0.50 boxes, mostly for other sports - but he brought out his other boxes [which were quarter cards] where he may have had a bigger table setup and had his family hanging out as well. 

I tried to dig through the baseball row of his quarter boxes, even though it's probably just older material from 2020 rather than newer stuff through 2021 - I like the idea of rummaging through cheap-o cards where regardless of value, see legitimate star power in my probable take home stash.

I may have to cap the total number of cards I end up with where I don't want to necessarily blow my wad at one spot - I came up with 36 assorted cards for $9, including some NFL and NBA stragglers that somehow made it as keepers.

  1. Looks like a lot of great stuff for quarters!

  2. I would imagine that lot of collectors are doing well picking up the leavings from sellers like this. I haven't been to a show in a while, but do fully expect to see a bunch of these tables whenever I do get to one again.
