The sports memorabilia Boca Raton market is pretty huge, but it’s no wonder since many items can rack in some major bucks. Don’t believe me? Recently a Babe Ruth jersey sold at an auction for $4.4 million and Lawrence Taylor’s championship ring from Superbowl XXV went for $230k. Like I said, bug bucks. Those are some of the more extravagant pieces being sold though. Here are a few realistic memorabilia that can be found in pawn shops.
Sports Memorabilia: Buying a Piece of History
Baseball cards. If you’re searching for a certain card to add to your collection, you may be lucky and find just what you’re looking for at your local pawn shop.
Autographed photos, balls and other items. Who cares if it’s made out to Alan and your name is Andy – chances are the super star player who signed the item probably had terrible handwriting, so no one will even notice.
Collector items. There are so many different kinds of items in the world or sports memorabilia. You’ll find anything from bobbleheads to championship Waterford crystals. How lucky you get finding a deal on these items all depends on the shop you go to.
Super Bowl and other championship rings. Can you believe that football heroes and baseball legends actually sell their championship rings? These pieces are probably pretty pricy, but you’re going to have a hard time finding a piece of history for something less than expensive.
