Hello. I am totally new to this board, and have used many other forums before.
However, I tried to figure out where exactly where to post this, but could not figure out where???

Maybe someone can point me to where, or a moderator can just move it for me.

We are a company and looking to purchase Steeler cards. We are looking for years of 2012 to Present.
Any cards. We are currently paying .25-.50 per card. Of course if there are autos, jersey, serial numbered etc, we pay more.

We ONLY do bulk buying. Meaning we will purchase a MIN. of 100 qty.

-----------------------------

We are also looking to buy entire collections, entire sport card stores for cash. We have a warehouse in PA & MD.

-----------------------------

Little bit about myself - I started collecting sport cards at the age of 8. I got hooked right away. My parents started buying me boxes and boxes of cards.
I must of ended up with approx. at least 1 million cards at age 15. I ended up selling my main collection at age 15 MINUS cards I really wanted to keep. Some original Ruth, Mantle, Robinson Etc. That is mainly what I collect, except I personally collect autos, serial, jersey, inserts now.
I sold my 1st collection to start a landscaping company. To buy my first lawn mower, car, weedeater all the tools etc.
Longgggggggggggggg story short, all lead to another from selling a sport card collection. I ended up opening up 3 landscaping/plowing companies, a landscape supply center, 23 Subway Franchises, Concrete/Fencing company, Property Management company, and other small numerous companies...... This was all at the age of 26. I sold all these companies at age 28. I did marry at age 20 btw lol.....
I was hit by a drunk driver in 2004 head on and I got MANY health problems from it. I had to sell out all our companies at age 28 like I said. Between my wife and my doctors meeting with my wife, attorneys and myself thats what we decided to do.
With over 500 employees you can imagine it was TONS of stress running a 24/7/365 business. Never a day off, ever.

So, currently, Im 34, I have a much easier life. I have 8 partners in my current businesses. We own a very large wholesale/distribution company. We sell/stock over 110,000 products.
Have over 27 Retail/Discount stores. 57 Dollar stores, 7 Furniture Stores, and 2 Restaurants. Our company helps out ALL our employees to the fullest. I personally have always helped out each of our employees by giving $100 Christmas bonuses. If you work xmas, New years, you get time and half. Not many companies do that anymore. I do not believe in not doing that. Im happy my partners agreed with doing this when I bought into the businesses.

We are getting ready to start selling our products online - we were approved for walmart.com and other big sites like that. Ebay, Amazon, Etsy, Wish.com, ETC. Over 50+ Sites. Also will have a website of our own.

Since I had sold my cards at 15, I had bought well over 3 million cards that are over 2 of my homes I live in. And some are at my mothers home.

Now my 9 year old started collecting lol!!!
He only has maybe 2,000. But hey, its a start. Im hooking him up though!

-----------------------------------

Reason for buying the cards:

Since I had such a success in business thus far and had a wonderful story by selling my cards and starting a business at the age of 15-16 I want to start a nice sport card shop for my son.
He already has a small fundraising business I started for him selling items to schools. Of course it is in my name and my wives, since he is only 9. But, he made a pretty nice chunk of change last year! Wants to buy a new Mustang. He is almost half way there already, just from his sales last year!!!
Like I told him though, I worked for everything I had in life, and he is to. (Even though I would give him money to help him out) Dont think im rude. He has enough in the bank already almost saved up!

Back to why I'm opening up the store.
I want to open it up for him, since he shows a lot of interest and have him start working in it. Hoping I will have enough inventory here by next year. Figure around 8-10 Million cards should be a good start for an awesome shop.

So if anyone wishes to sell Steeler cards, entire collections, or if your retiring and looking to sell out, let me know. Not sure if you are aloud to post your email on here or not?

Welcome to SCF!

Yeah it should be fine to place this here. There is a meet and greet section where you can introduce yourself and if you want to sell or buy anything just click on the sport that you are looking to buy or sell from and then inside of that should be a subforum that has all the buying, selling and trading threads.
