I have started collecting again with my kids and I have renewed my goal of opening my own card store in the future. Since I was a young boy I dreamed of opening a card store of my own. It is a dream that has never really left me, just been put on hold numerous times. I have been watching YouTube videos and reading countless articles about the hobby and I am motivated to work on this project. I am not sure if it will ever come to fruition or if it will fade away as the world we live in changes. Nonetheless, I am once again working towards this goal. One of the more exciting things about it has been that my kids are starting to get into card collecting and I am trying to include them in this project.
It seems that one of the first steps is establishing an online presence of some sort due to the technology available today, and also in part due to the issues we are seeing as a result of COVID-19.
I currently have an eBay store with no items for sale, but a store nonetheless. I have also started selling cards on COMC under the user name BubbaHuns. I am excited to see how this service works and how I can continue to increase my overall sales volume. One of the next steps is deciding on a name for the eventual store. I have several ideas and I will look for feedback when the time comes.
One thing that I am very interested in are parallel sets. There are so many card variations these days, I really want to focus on building, collecting, and selling parallel cards. I hope to write several articles on this topic in the next few months. If anyone actually reads this blog and has any instight into the parallel set world please send me a message or hit me up on Twitter @BrianHuens. Well that is it for now, more things to come.
Thanks as always for reading
Bubba
