Here is how you can schedule your appointment to meet Leighton:


We are always buying vintage cards of Hall of Famers such as Mickey Mantle and Hank Aaron. Complete sets are always on our wish list! Maybe you have a complete 1959 Topps baseball set you'd like to sell. Leighton isn't just buying baseball either! We know this is Cooperstown, but he'll be buying baseball, football, and hockey cards, too! Last year in Cooperstown, Leighton purchased a collection that not only included Mantle and Aaron cards, but rookies of Michael Jordan and Wayne Gretzky!

Here is a video of the The Cooperstown Collection.

We offer many ways to evaluate your cards other than or using our website, too.

  • Travel to Us

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.

  • Come to convention

We keep a LIST of card shows we'll be attending. Come stop by the Just Collect table and chat.

  • Meet in-person

If you have a valuable collection and want us to come to you, we'll hop on the next plane out.

  • Meet in New York City

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.

  • SHIP your collection

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.

OUR BUYING PHILOSOPHY

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.

CONTACT US ANY TIME

Whether you have vintage cards or modern wax you want to sell, you can reach out to us any time!
