Sold my collection...getting out of collecting...
...no silly not my Mark Brunell collection, but this set (below). Since 2005, I have bought and sold 100s from the 2004 SP Legendary Cuts Significant Fact Memorabilia Set which are all serial #1/1. Although each card is indeed a #1/1, the print run for each card was anywhere from 5 to 99...- jaderock

Happy to say, that I accepted a Job offer to work for COMC. I start Tuesday!!!!
Brian, Please pass my concerns along to COMC's hierarchy. In less than a week it will be October and COMC is still screwed up beyond belief...I had over a hundred different searches before the problems with Beckett happen. At this point, neverly SIX Months later, less than 1/2 of the searches...- jaderock

Why I Will NOT Accept Another Trade Involving PWEs
Honestly, the only time PWE should EVER be used is if the card is EASILY replacable by the sender! Otherwise, opt for a bubble mailer for protection.- jaderock

Best card chatter these days
Wow...everyone has hit most of the key points of the sites listed so far. Blowout - flame/bullying/troll heaven. FCB - mainly baseball SCF - decent for trading, but not much in the way of discussions CU - 90% talk on graded, unopened and wrestling cards. TheBench - used to be my goto for "card...- jaderock

eBay non paying buyer
Leave the "positive" feedback (ie: "buyer did not pay") BEFORE closing out the non paying case. I keep forgetting to do that as well. It helps just a bit when you realise the buyer has a history of non paying.- jaderock

I offer you fair market value for your collection... do you sell?
To answer the OP's main question, you have see what your TRUE intention of your "PC" is. If you honestly enjoy what you collect AND are financially secured, then it's a simple "NO". If you ever elvaluate/re-evaluate your interest level in your PC OR money is tight or in need, then I would...- jaderock

Some dufex goodness that came in today
Duflex technology back in the mid 90s was the BOMB! Football had many set with duflex that are still some of the most eye catching!- jaderock

Anyone ever just want to walk away from collecting?
Walk away -never! But I did loose a bit of interest for a month or so after my player got benched back in 2003. However, when that happened (benchiing and subsequently traded), more cards surfaced and I was quickly back in the game. Since then I love getting each addition as much as the next...- jaderock

Beckett Marketplace is a joke
Burbank comes up a lot. PROS: Massive inventory with lots of hard to find items. CONS: Older stock (90s-early 2000s) has been there for a decade. In addition, most of their items use stock photos or NO photos at all! Also, getting card specifics from their customer service is next to...- jaderock
