About Us
About Kurt
I am a sixth-generation farmer from Iowa. I am married and have two beautiful kids who both love the farm.
Farming is a 7-day-a-week job, but I also manage to find time for another passion of mine: baseball card collecting, and in particular unopened baseball card collecting.
I have been collecting cards for over 25 years. Some of my favorite products to open as a kid were 1994 and 1995 Fleer Ultra cards – I loved the inserts!
I never really left the hobby; even through high school and college I continued to collect. As I’ve gotten a little older my collecting has grown into the vintage unopened market.
I have a large supply of great unopened boxes and cases from the 80s and 90s, along with a ton of 70s packs and boxes. I even have a large stash of 60s packs and some from the 50s. This is where my passion has turned into helping other people enjoy the vintage unopened market.
One great thing about the farm is that I have a large-climate controlled shop to properly store all kinds of unopened wax and boxes. I take great pride in offering clean and properly stored and handled, unopened product.
Everything I do in the hobby – whether it is selling a box or pack outright or facilitating a group live break – is about honesty and trustworthiness.
We try to source and rip material that is affordable and offers the participants the best chance of hitting the cards we all want to see. We try to offer from a sealed case product whenever possible so we know that the hits will be consistent.
There is something so fun about getting a group of people together to share and relive the experience of opening a 1985 Leaf Box, or a 1992 Bowman Box, or a 1979 Topps Rack Pack, or even the occasional older 1960s pack!
I hope to share and participate in the incredible fun of unopened cards with you.
I also love to hear from people. I always try to accommodate requests for breaks and am open to suggestions on how to do things better.
About Brandon
My love for baseball first drew me to cards. In 1988 my dad Dave purchased my first pack of cards for me. My brother, dad and myself went to shows all the time and the drive to build sets made me love collecting even more.
I am a set builder. I have sets from 1955 to present and the hunt is what makes me continue. I currently build, sort and fill sets with my son David. As a farmer and a parent I need a release nowadays, so I really enjoy the relaxation of collecting.
I love cards, and there is no better feeling then to help another collector finish their set. I hope we get the chance to fill your want lists!

Live Breaks
Join us for our Live Breaks, when Kurt and Brandon “break” factory-sealed cases to reveal vintage cards. Everything is streamed live on camera, and the cards are shipped to participating members after the break.
Media Attention

From personal and estate collections to old card shop inventory, Brandon and I are always looking to purchase unopened product.
