Official 2015 NSCC Thread ~ Chicago, July 29-Aug 2

[TNTtoys]

All,

It's that time of year again, and I can't believe there is not a thread for this topic yet...

Are any forum members planning to attend this year's National Sports Collectors Convention in Chicago?

I will be there from Wed to Fri if any forum member would like to meet up and say hi.

I look to be there Thurs.-Sat., health permitting. Just look for the 6-foot-8 guy with the mostly gray beard and the political T-shirt.

I was there last night, slim Pickens on game used stuff. Onyx has a table with some minor league gear, JT Sports has there booth as well and a pretty sick collection of Trout bats. He also has 3 Abreu bats at $899 if anyone is looking for one. He is also starting to dable in photo matching as I took my 1st HR Avisail Garcia bat there with my JPEGs and he authenticated as such. Fan graphs has some Rizzo and Bryant items if you have some cash to burn as well. A bunch of the bats in random booths were over priced for who they were. I saw a Ken Camenetti bat for $1400. All the auctions that were represented there had some pretty sick displays. I enjoyed seeing the golden auctions set up with the Gold gloves.

Gotta agree with Helf, was there today and was pretty slim pickings re: game used stuff. Definitely a bonanza if you're a card collector, though. Loved the Goldin booth for sure.

Anyone wants the exclusive topps redemption Bryant card for $10, or the set of three (Bryant, buxton, correa) for $19? Exclusive to the national when you buy a box of 2015 topps, limited supply. Shipped prices. Way cheaper than eBay.

There was a Big Mac bat towards the middle back if anyone is looking. I just glanced at it not sure if it has correct markings but there is one out there. Also found a Frank Thomas worth bat but the handle was flat and not sure if it had the right stamping. I took a photo of the knob if anyone wants to see it.
