I went to the show on Friday (wanted to go before the storm). I spent about 2 hours there. Pickups include a nice group of T206 upgrades, 49 Bowmans, and some nicer 50s Topps baseball. I was also above to snag a vintage non sports collection from a patron.
Initial thoughts from the show:
1. Show was very well attended. Saw a lot of collectors and a good amount of kids.
2. Raw sells . Dealers with raw seemed to be doing well. Graded items were mostly Sky high prices and not moving.
3. Modern dealers on phones the whole time.
4. Funniest overhead statement. Dealer to a patron - “VCP? I don’t care what VCP says. The price is the price!”
Philly show never disappoints.
