A blog post a day until the 2012 National in Baltimore! 

- ** July 24, 2012
- **

The Yankees got Ichiro! I love the trade, and think Ichiro will thrive in NY because he doesn't have to be the entire team. Exciting news for the Pinstripes (even though they are losing right now), but its 11:30 at night and I still have a ton of work to do. At least I have Seinfeld & Sportscenter on in the background. Today was a very long day at the office, as were was open from 8am until 8pm. Some of the staff was busy processing the nearly $40,000 worth of vintage cards we sold last week. The balance of the staff was mainly doing data entry or organizing our inventory for The National. Right now I'm working on launching some more auctions tonight for a 5-day auction, ending this Sunday, including a 1969 Topps Football Uncut Sheet and some high-grade 1936 G-Men cards. I would love to be able to write more and make this post a bit longer, but I'm exhausted! PS- On our justcollectcards eBay account, we are having massive, no reserve vintage ungraded card auction, with over 400 cards starting at just $0.99! It all ends this Sunday, and we can't wait to see the results!
