    Is Ebay Dying?

    I figured I would jump into the conversation as well, ah where to begin? Let's start with the E-Bay dying question, I think that the statement is a bit premature at this point in time. Is it changing? Yes it has no choice but to evolve and change, in order to keep up with competition form other...

    Why Do So Many People Here Think They...

    I do not have a problem with trading base cards for GU or Auto, if the trade is for cards that I can use to complete sets I am working on. I prefer to trade BV for BV and if the deal makes sense then do it if not you can always walk away. Just my 2 cents.

    IP Autographs

    I do not have any doubts about the auto, but I am thinking about it as a fan and as a investment. Let's say I buy the jersey and down the road decide to sell it, I would still need to get it authenticated. Would you as a collector buy a auto without some certification?

    IP Autographs

    I have an opportunity to buy a Derek Jeter signed Yankees Jersey from a collector I know personally. He obtained the Autograph himself at Spring Training back in 98 or 99. He has attended spring training for the last 20+ years and has lots of Auto's on mini helmets, jerseys, balls, photos, cards...

    Did I pay to much?,..opinions needed.

    Maybe I am wrong but I thought a negative was supposed to be reversed, but I can see the Cleveland written accross his jersey. Is this how all the topps vault cards were or is this a photo taken from the actual negative?

    Need some advice guys...

    I would have him stay away from boxes and start collecting complete sets. But that is only my opinion, but the choices you made for boxes are a good start if he likes collecting rookies and prospects.

    Wow, that is some shipping!!

    Just finished buying an auction from E-Bay for 3 cards as I was the only bidder the auction finished at .99 cents. Now I live in Canada and have bought numerous items from people in the US and all over the world. I was expecting to pay in the $3-$5 range for shipping. Boy was I surprised when...

    Caught off guard

    During the 1993 ALCS between the White Sox and Blue Jays, I was staying at the hotel in the SkyDome. Going into the elevator I notice Bo Jackson and since it was only the 2 of us in there I struck up a conversation. By luck we were both on the same floor and we continued talking for a couple of...

    Help me find a Josh Hamilton 1999 Bowman Chrome Gold Refractor

    I have a buddy who was trying to put the 1999 BC Gold Ref set together years ago. I helped him find over 200 cards including the Josh Hamilton, Soriano, Hudson, Mulder, Durazoand Dunn rookies. I do know that he gave up putting the set together and pretty sure he still has the Hamilton card. PM...
