Baseball Card Exchange – This shop has been operating in Las Vegas since 1995 and has a very good reputation in the baseball card community. They are located right on Charleston Blvd and have thousands of cards both in their retail store and also available online. Their expert buyers can give you a fair cash offer on almost any card or collection. They specialize in vintage cards from the 1950s-1980s as well as modern rookie cards. If you have big money cards like vintage Mickey Mantle or Trout rookie cards, they will pay top dollar.
Card Shops on Maryland Parkway – This stretch of Maryland Parkway has multiple independent card shops that are good options to sell cards. Places like A&J Card World, Roll Dice & Cards, and Gamers Paradise will buy individual cards or entire collections. While they may not pay as much as the larger stores, they see a lot of foot traffic and have knowledgeable staff that can properly value cards. This is a good option if you just want to liquidate your collection quickly without having to deal with the bigger stores.
Rose’s Comic Book Store – While primarily known for comics, Rose’s has a large selection of sports cards as well. Their buyer Greg Crocenzi has over 30 years of experience and can provide fair cash offers. They pay top dollar for rare and valuable cards, especially vintage baseball from the 1960s-1980s. If you have cards signed by Mickey Mantle, Ted Williams or other legends from that era, you can maximize your profit selling to Rose’s.
Online Auction Sites – A popular option these days is listing cards individually or in lots on eBay, COMC, or other online auction platforms. This exposes your items to collectors worldwide and allows the market to determine the price. There are listing and selling fees involved and it may take time for high-end items to sell at auction. For beginners, selling to a local shop may be less hassle. But experienced collectors can maximize profit using online auctions.
Local Card Shows – Keep an eye out for advertised baseball card and collectible shows held around Las Vegas. Vendors come from all over to buy and sell at these events. If you have a big collection, it may make sense to set up a display case and sell directly from the floor to other collectors and dealers. Many shows have dealer buylists posted as well so you can sell to them at their pre-determined prices to avoid setting up as a seller.
When selling cards locally, make sure to do research on current market values, especially for rare/Hall of Famer cards, to make sure you get paid properly. Pack items securely and be sure of a buyer’s reputation if shipping cards. With some legwork, any of these Las Vegas options provide ways to sell baseball cards and cash in on your collection. Just be sure not to get low-balled by exploiting a lack of knowledge on card values.
