It was that way for me as well. No one card in particular but just hanging out at the shop seeing the cards and asking questions. And they were very good to me. I wanted a t206, but didn't want to spend the whole weeks budget on one card (A whole 1.50! ) They got in a batch that had a pretty awful Beckley. One large corner mostly torn off and reattached with clear tape. But it was a bargain at just 20 cents. Later on they gave me a totaly wrecked P2. Not exactly what a dealer would do today but it paid off in the long run. I'm still buying stuff from them 33 years later.
