The 2028 National Sports Collectors Convention will be held in either Atlanta or Detroit! The two Cities are finalists to host the biggest event in our hobby. Let's take a look at the venues being proposed.
The National Sports Collectors Convention is where all of our hobby dreams come true. Just Collect proudly sets up multiple booths each year at the show and offers the best vintage cards you'll find for sale. From rookie cards of Mickey Mantle, Michael Jordan, and Wayne Gretzky to historic discoveries such as the 1909-11 T206 Hindu Back Collection, the Just Collect booths will be a must-stop for you at the show! We can't wait for the 2025 show in Chicago, which is just a few weeks away. Just Collect is so excited, we are already looking ahead to not just 2025, but 2028!
Atlanta or Detroit have been chosen as finalists to hose the 2028 National.
A decision will be made around September 1st, after the show takes place this Summer between July 30th and August 3rd. The venues being prosed are The Georgia World Congress Center for Atlanta, which hosted the 1999 National, and Huntington Place for Detroit, a City which has never hosted the National.
While we aren't certain where the show will reside in 2028 just yet, we do know Just Collect will be at the show, buying and selling cards and collections!
Flashback to when our owner, Leighton, interviewed Derek Jeter at the National!

If you can make the trip here like the son from my hometown did for this collection- we can make a deal at the office. We once met a father-son duo that drove eight hours from Virginia to meet us to sell a Michael Jordan rookie card stored in Tupperware since 1986 - great read here.
We keep a LIST of card shows we'll be attending. Come stop by the Just Collect table and chat.
If you have a valuable collection and want us to come to you, we'll hop on the next plane out.
If you're near New York City and would like to meet in a public place, our owner, Leighton, would be happy to meet you; read all the information here.
If you choose to mail your cards for an appraisal, we will evaluate your cards for FREE still. If you choose not to sell the cards, we'll ship them back shipping fees paid by us! We can offer our FedEx account with 2-day shipping, fully insured, all covered by us. Simply contact the office to set up this option.
We've run into a wide range of people and collections over the last 25 years. Although Just Collect is known for buying vintage sports cards and especially vintage baseball cards, we are also extremely interested in buying non-sports cards, too!
Every collection and every collector is different and we treat EVERY collection with the respect and attention that we show for our own collections. We understand that many have put their heart and souls into building their collections. So when you're ready to sell, we understand the feelings that you're going through and will work with you to help you reach a decision that is a WIN/WIN, because if you're not happy, we're not happy.
Whether you have vintage cards or modern wax you want to sell, you can reach out to us any time!
