Orioles Cards

[MarCakes21]

Hey everyone, mods feel free to move if this is off topic.

I used to collect a lot of cards, mainly Cal Ripken, but others as well. My son is now interested in getting into cards. I’m looking for the best way, other than eBay type sites, to acquire Orioles cards, and when he wants general packs of cards if there’s some packs that are better than others?

And if there are any members who are looking to pass along cards to a young collector please reach out.

Oh, I thought this was going to be about the 1982 World Series that should have been.

I will keep this in mind. I live a long way from where I grew up, but at the family home I still have thousands and thousands of cards, mostly 1979-1998. Most aren’t worth that much since the market caved years ago(other than the odd Murray or Ripken rookies), so I would be happy to donate some cards.

I’d love to help. I could put together a package with some unopened product as well as a mix of some starter cards, including some O’s - past, present and future. Feel free to shoot me a message.

I have a ton of Orioles cards and memorabilia, including cards, balls, autographs of all the greats (Ripken, Murray, Brooks, Palmer, Weaver, Robinson)).  It was my hobby for 20 years and mostly focused on Orioles stuff since I grew up in MD.  I asked Tony if there was a place I could offer these items as I think they would be better in the homes of active Oriole fans.  If anyone is interested in some great stuff, then please let me know as I'd love to put these items on display on this site, many of which I got from Roy Firestone.

I sent both you and @scarey1999 a note, appreciate the potential help.
