Default Meelypops @ the 2018 Cleveland National

(UPDATED 7/30)

It's that time again! What up to everyone in the Blowout Community!

National 2018. Cleveland. Card Chaos at its finest.

My 4th consecutive year. Lots have happened the last 12 months, opened a store in Gainesville FL a month ago. Picked up tons of new things. Can't wait to share with everyone. (If you get a chance to leave our FB page or Google or Yelp page a review, from an online perspective, would be awesome... just google 'meelypops')

BOOTH NUMBER: 1651/1655 (NEXT TO PRISTINE AUCTION & BECKETT & JSA)



If you are going, check us out! Will have a large space (The Meelypops Shop) and will be right on the border of corporate booths (the fancy carpet area wow) this year. It's always poppin at our booth and will be very easy to find!!!

BOOTH DETAILS
-->Like always, we try to have something for every collector at each level of spending...
1) Roughly 15-20 All State Glass display cases with mid/high end (all sports / non sports) MODERN AND VINTAGE (always have awesome stuff!)
2) Memorabilia: JSA & PSA authentic Autographed photos/flags/balls, certified game used jerseys, rare photos, much more!!
3) At least eight '$1-$10' 3-row boxes with tons of low/mid end sorted by sport, lots of solid stuff
4) Trading/Gaming Cards (mainly Pokemon & Yugioh) w/some rare stuff. I should have (unless someone buys it) a BGS 9.5/PSA10 Charizard 1st edition base set at booth.
5) Deal Boxes 25 cent cards organized by sports and teams!!! 100 for $20!!! These are not the typical ‘.25 box’ cards, much better!
6) Other surprises!

*please note I do a lot of business on set up days with other dealers so the above content is subject to change

*BUYING*
I AM BUYING/TRADING THE ENTIRE TIME I'M THERE
-If I can use it, we will make a deal.
-I buy everything, from high end and large lots to bulk jersey/auto, inserts, numbered cards, always fair and treat people right, ask around!
--> all sports, non-sports, pokemon, trading cards, certified memorabilia, graded comics, you name it!

*SOCIAL MEDIA*

Will do my best to stream live and post a lot of pics to facebook & insta, maybe even on this post...
Instagram: @shopmeelypops
FB: facebook.com/themeelypopsshop

FEEL FREE TO MESSAGE ME IF NOT GOING TO NATIONAL OR WANTING TO MAKE SOME SELLS BEFORE THE NATIONAL. I BUY ALMOST EVERYTHING, ANY SIZE LOT, I JUST HAVE TO BE ABLE TO USE IT AND DEAL NEEDS TO MAKE SENSE. THANKS FOR LOOKING!

Here are a few pics of what we have been up to the past year...









Here is my thread from National last year that went sticky in here, check it out...

Year after year this is my favorite booth at the National. Not only does he and his team have some of the best priced material on the floor but they are hands down the best dealer to talk to. Their sell prices are great and their buy prices are more than fair. See you Wednesday at 3:30 )
