Long-time collector who grew up on cheap wax packs in the 80s and now buys occasional boxes. I rarely sell (don't buy enough to need to clear space), but always happy to chat and talk baseball generally.

Welcome to the boards. Awesome that you have not become addicted to collecting a bunch of little white boxes filled with base/insert cards.

I do buy them occasionally, but I just picked up a nice box of 1990 score and pulled *two* of the Bo Jackson #697 card (football pads and baseball bat). I've wanted it for 30 years and now have two. Not bad for a $20 box.

Welcome, fellow New Yorker!

I'm in the upstate region of the state, however looking at the turnout ITT, it seems as though NYC is well represented.
