Whether you have complete sets, single vintage cards of stars and Hall of Famers or rare and monumental tickets, we would love for you to stop by. 

If you're looking for booth 2102, you can find the FLOOR PLAN right HERE. We will be posting live from the show, too, and will share photos of where the Just Collect booth is placed in the convention center.

In 2023, we have proudly purchased collections such as the Joe McCord Family Collection that includes over 400 vintage tobacco cards, and the Tampa Collection that has a 1952 Topps Mickey Mantle rookie card. Come bring your cards, autographs, and stories (we LOVE hearing the background of your collection!) to Just Collect at this year's National.

  • 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

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.

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.
