Bubble Gum Stains Card Shop

Collector-run card shop

The hobby, priced
like a hobby.

I'm a collector first. Everything here is card I've pulled, bought or traded that didn't make my personal collection — priced to move, whatever you're doing with it.

Big Blowout Packs

"My mission with the Big Blowout Packs is to deliver an experience the average everyday collector doesn't get to have — because sports cards from vendors like Topps have gotten extremely expensive." — Erik, Bubble Gum Stains
  • Built by a collector, not a spreadsheet. Packs are assembled by hand from real inventory — not leftovers nobody wanted.
  • The rip is the point. You get the pull-it-live moment that retail pricing has priced most collectors out of.
  • The $15 Fat Pack is the whole point. It's the cheapest thing I make and I keep it that way on purpose — a good rip shouldn't cost a car payment.

Series 5 sold out in under two minutes. Pick your tier before the 2nd — there isn't time to decide once it's live.

Series 6 — Baseball

Big Bubble, Bigger Hits

Five ways in, whatever your budget looks like this month. Every product on every tier has numbered cards, SSPs and community cards in it — that part is guaranteed. Autographs and the 1-of-1 community cards are the chase. The difference between tiers is how much you're ripping. Packs are sold only through the TikTok Shop.

Series 5 sold out in under two minutes. Set a reminder on TikTok — the tiers below are what you'll be choosing from, so pick one before the clock runs out.

Series 6 pack odds

Every tier, every hit, laid out before you spend a dollar. No guessing what a box is likely to give you. Pick the tier that fits how you like to rip.

  • Big number = odds per box. The small number underneath is odds in a single pack.
  • 1:N means about 1 in N. A figure like “1.6/box” is the average you'll find in one box.
  • Guaranteed hits are already counted in the odds, and autographs include auto-relic cards.

Odds reflect the intended Series 6 configuration. Final contents may vary slightly.

Every tier pulls from this same pool. A $15 Fat Pack is hunting the identical cards a Delight Box is — you're buying more swings, not a better list.

BUBBLE GUM STAINS Card Shop · Collector

Why this shop exists

I'm not in this for the biggest margin.

I came back to collecting after more than thirty years away. The hobby I walked back into was not the one I left. Prices had gone somewhere I didn't recognize, and the simple thing — buying a pack and opening it — had quietly turned into a luxury.

I'm a collector, same as everybody else reading this. The cards listed here are the ones that don't fit my own personal collection. Selling them is how I supplement the budget for the cards I do keep — and for getting into breaks myself.

That changes what the shop feels like. Prices are set to move cards to people who want them, not to squeeze a hobby that's already gotten expensive enough. Inventory gets updated almost every day, because I'm going through cards almost every day.

The name comes from where all of this started: gum-stained cardboard out of a wax pack. That's still the feeling I'm chasing, and it's what the Big Blowout Packs are built to give back to everyday collectors.

DivvyDecks · also from the shop

Your PC deserves better than a sticky note.

You spent real money on rips, breaks and singles — then filed the whole thing behind a bent index card. DivvyDecks are 3D-printed, jersey-matched dividers built to organise a collection with the same care you put into building it.

$19.99–$23.99 Eight jersey-matched colours across the three leagues. Printed to order, by me.

Why these grade out at a 10

Jersey-matched, not guessed The colour is matched to the uniform, not picked from a dropdown. Home whites, alternate navy, the throwback — your box ends up looking like a locker room.
Recessed text, not a sticker The team name is cut down into the plate. Nothing to peel off, and nothing for a toploader to catch on when you pull cards out in a hurry.
Built like a tank Thick, rigid, 2 mm solid. No creasing, no curling, none of the soft corners a paper divider gets three months in.
The clack Thumb through a row and you get that click-clack all the way down. That part wasn't an accident.

Fits: Monster boxes 3200 & 5000ct Shoe boxes Sort by team, set or player
