tinking of sending a bunch low-valus cards for grading what is yall opinion on this? good or bad?

My partner Tim and I hosted our first card show and it was wildly successful Over 1k attendees in a local Marriott ballroom Lines, down the hallways, out the door Marriott employees wandering around mouths agape, asking us how we did this and who we are. But most importantly our vendors Killed it. Dozens had one of their most sales day ever. I guess when the vibes are good, people buy. I should take it easy, but the other show runners all know MINTD now. I already saw a flyer that copied us beat for beat. They’re coming after us. Gotta make sure we’re ready. Thanks for all your support. I need to rest but more things to come. I’ll always give you the scoop here and we dive even deeper with more BTS and numbers in Cardboard Empire.

What are your thoughts?

This card seems to be getting pumped right now, I think on TCG it’s at $40 and it was like $4-6 a couple days ago. Almost looks like a political cartoon haha
