Upgrade & Join the Club

This week on the Gordy Bonker show, I talked about some of the big results that came from this past weekend’s REA auction, this weekend’s upcoming Heritage auction, and dive a little deeper into some of my deals and upcoming eBay live show.

Then, I turn the episode over to my interview I did at the National with Drew Hester, from Greg Morris Cards talking about his views on the hobby, what it’s like running one of the biggest consignment businesses in the industry, and more.

To listen to the episode, check out the Gordy Bonker show where ever you get your podcasts (and please give a 5-star review!)

As a reminder - I also am always happy to help you guys selling your cards or collections, and have made plenty of personal introductions to the team at Greg Morris.

Email me at bonkerscards@gmail.com if you have cards or collections for sale, and I can take a look at what I think is best for you to do. I typically will buy any HOF graded vintage cards, and will also make the introduction to Drew and his team for vintage sets and common cards.

Just this past week, I sent another large collection of raw cards that I purchased, and have been consistently really impressed with how they handle them and the auction results they get.

I just sent out the invite for next week’s Bonkers Cards Club meeting over Zoom! If you are looking to join the community and meet other vintage collectors, as well as win free giveaways and learn more on the vintage card market - consider joining the Bonkers Cards Club and unlock the rest of the benefits of a membership!
