Local Card Shop Visit: How I Traded Up At Nash Cards

My son Max and I went to visit Chris at Nash Cards in Mt. Juliet, TN after the Nashville Card Show on July 10, 2021.  It had been nearly 30 years since my last visit to a Local Card Shop.  Much like my trip to the Nashville Card Show, I had ZERO expectations of Nash Cards. I mean, I had heard GREAT things about Chris and his team from different podcasts and people at the Nashville Card Show.  When I met Chris, he lived up to the hype. After I had my head in a $0.25 box of Bowman Chrome Prospects cards for about 15 minutes, Chris complimented my "Topps" t-shirt I was wearing and we immediately hit it off.  I explained that Max and I were in town from Spain, and looking to have fun and possibly trade.  My strategy was to introduce him to some La Liga cards that he had never seen before.  He was super patient with me and allowed me to teach him about some of the Messi and Ronaldo cards I brought with me.
