Authentics/Card shaq closing down 25 -50% off

[ace e]

As you may or may not be aware i frequently visit Authentics/Card shaq in the CBD here in Sydney. They are closing down and have 25% off boxes and 50% off packs (these are still pricey). what i though was a bargain was the Mcfarlanes NBA figurines (about 30cm tall) which are selling for $20 - $25 or 2 for $35 , i am happy to facilitate and pack and post at cost only. From memory they had Melo , Kobe, (TMAC and Lebron together $42), Drexler, Joe Johnson and more. There phone number is 02 9221 2499 call Omar and check if you like and tell him i will pick it up and post it. Let me know if anyone is interested or has anything on hold that they need picked up.

are the prices on the boxes any good? how about the packs? i know you said a bit pricey still.. so i guess that means still more than we could get somewhere else?

I haven't been in there for a long time. When exactly are they closing Ace, do you know?

Jerseys as in playing jerseys, apparel or jerseys in cards.

I am pretty confident that they don't have NBA apparel, I've been there many times.

They do have a signed photo of Alec Guiness if I recall I'll have to give them a call..!

Do they have a website to look at ?

no nba jersy's guys, they have boxes at 25% off but i still think ebay is cheaper. The nba figurines are a bargain but thats about it. They will be closing at the end of this month. They have signed frames of tyson , maradona, kiss all 25%off but they start at around $600.

Why are they closing....did they say?? Looks to me like Ebay has killed another business....or maybe they didn't keep up with the times??

 

[ace e]

cards was only a side business, framed auto's are there main business, the the store mustnt being doing to well (overheads etc)
i think they will focus more on the framed stuff and no shop front (13yrs of business)

 

[Lippo]

Its in Pitt St Mall, so the rent must be an absolute killer

I think where they are located has been bought out by corporate honchos. So Rebel and Hobbyco also have to relocate.

Well that's the story I was given :roll:

50% off means they are only making a 75% profit now.

Yeah, I spoke wih the guy there. The building is being redone or something and all the tenents have to go.

Rebel's got some bargins there also.

They are also going to go to internet business, and guess where........EBay of course. They won't be able to get the prices they have previously been asking for on EBay.

And also their '50% off' sale.............is only on some stuff.
