Yeah the Blaster ended up just a tad above a local place that just sold out.

Definitely trying to keep it local first and foremost.

Good on you man. I would buy locally if i could. Card shops disappeared late 90's in the newcastle area. Not even one in sydney. So have always just dacard world or the odd buy from another state

I used to have like 10 card shops close to me in the early/mid 90's. It was a great time to grow up.

Going to the shop and buying a box of 1990/91 Hoops and other junk era cards for $19.95. Going to Myer, Toyworld and Newsagents etc and buying packs!

You would think we will see a return of card shops with the boom. Surely

Think the southern states probably see enough people getting involved with afl/nrl and nba. Would certainly think nsw could do better with nrl. Seen packs at local servos and woolworths lol. Odd big w kmart nba packs but sell quick and not really my game the newer stuff anyhow.

Takes an establishment to get a deal with the card companies to really give a shot at decent price and amount of product to be viable

Ended up getting another Prizm blaster and found the retail box for $1500.

Next on the list, Hobby Jumbo, Mega box and a couple of hangers

Definitely happening already, biggest issue is everyone is snapping them up to flip on the second and third markets - eBay, Facebook, razzes etc. At inflated prices.
