Have you ever had a moment that made you question the state of baseball card collecting? Recently, I stumbled upon a surprising find at a Walgreens: trading cards not locked away in a glass case! This got me thinking about the evolution of card availability and the places we least expect to find them.
What are your thoughts on the accessibility of baseball cards today? Are drugstores like Walgreens stepping up their game, or is this just a fleeting moment of nostalgia?
I remember a time when you could walk into almost any store and find a pack of cards without having to navigate a maze or ask for assistance. With the rise of online shopping and the decline of brick-and-mortar stores, do you think we’re losing something special in the hobby?
And speaking of surprises, I opened a pack that contained a numbered Giancarlo Stanton card. It made me wonder: what’s the best unexpected pull you’ve ever had?
Let’s also talk about the future of card collecting. With the introduction of mystery packs and the ever-changing landscape of card designs, what bold predictions do you have for the next few years? Will we see a resurgence in local stores selling cards, or will online marketplaces continue to dominate?
