I opened my first Topps pack at 6 years old in '91 and still have a Julio Franco card from that pack.  I have over 15.000 baseball, football, basketball, racing cards and others.  I still love opening packs, sorting, sleeving and finding error cards.  As a 90s kid from Oklahoma, I loved Michael Jordan, Bo Jackson, Greg Maddux, Nolan Ryan, Emmitt Smith and Barry Sanders, but I've always just collected EVERYTHING.  I've been picking up a good mix of modern and wax era cards lately from my local card shop, All Star Cards in Santee, CA, and I love both for completely different reasons.  I love finding HOFers and personal favorites in the wax and rack packs, but there's something addicting about all the parallel and numbered cards you can find in modern packs.

Now that  I have a family, I want to get everything I have on record so that my son doesn't have to start completely from scratch with my madness, and also try to sell a few cards when the  I've tried to use some other apps and sites, and I'm sure this won't be a one stop shop, but I like a lot of benefits that this site uses.
