Ross Uitts, Owner
I sold my collection of T206 cards to Old Sports Cards, LLC. Ross was very helpful, professional and gave me a very fair price for my collection. I enjoyed working with him and would highly recommend him to other sellers.

I contacted several dealers/buyers without much success until I found Ross Uitts. Ross was professional, informative and offered me a fair price. He came to my home to inspect the cards and purchased the collection to my satisfaction.

From the initial contact through the delivery, grading and compensation process Ross was nothing short of awesome. The entire process was transparent and timely. I can honestly say that it couldn’t have gone better.

How I Started
I began collecting sports cards as a kid in the late 80s, during the height of the infamous “Junk Wax Era.”
And nearly every other kid I knew did the same…
The market was booming and sports cards were everywhere.
The small Indiana town where I grew up even had a couple of hobby shops.
Fortunately, one of those shops was close enough that my friends and I could ride our bikes to it.
Using spare money from chores or birthdays, we built our collections pack by pack.
Beckett magazines were our go-to source for the latest hobby info and market pricing.
We traded during and after school.
And we proudly displayed our cards in top loaders and three-ring binders.
It was an incredible time during the hobby and I’m grateful to have lived it.
As I’ve grown older, my passion for collecting has continued to grow.
And now I’m happy to share it via the many articles on this site.
