I\u2019m a college student, sports fanatic, and avid collector of sports cards. Like most of you, I opened packs as a kid, but rediscovered my passion for the hobby back in 2015. While in school in Los Angeles, I was able to collect some of my favorite teams and players when I wasn\u2019t studying or in class. Soon after, I realized that I could flip some cards for profit to help pay for my Starbucks runs. The more I learned the game, the more I realized the potential of sportscards. I decided to create this website to document my journey, share my experiences, and provide tips and tricks to get the most out of this amazing hobby, while always remaining a collector at heart.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-89133b3 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"89133b3\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-2725061\" data-id=\"2725061\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b5e43e3 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"b5e43e3\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figure class=\"wp-caption\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/thecardbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Me.jpg?fit=300%2C300&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"attachment-medium size-medium wp-image-73\" alt=\"About Me pic\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/thecardbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Me.jpg?w=640&amp;ssl=1 640w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/thecardbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Me.jpg?resize=300%2C300&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/thecardbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Me.jpg?resize=150%2C150&amp;ssl=1 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figcaption class=\"widget-image-caption wp-caption-text\">Griffith Park in Los Angeles, CA<\/figcaption>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hi, I\u2019m Marco!
