Ebay is the best bet. Do plenty of research. It can and will be very overwhelming at first. Opening a lot of boxes is fun, but if you are going to do that just buy a case. I only bought 3 boxes of each series when they came out mostly to get the base sets and inserts.
Not sure if you are collecting everything or certain guys. Ask if the needs section for particular cards you are looking for. And make sure ask questions. People on here are very knowledgeable and helpful. |

I gotta agree with this 100% if you hope to come out ahead. Lottery does not work unless you're lucky- I've probably opened more cases than any one, I would have been better off selling my boxes and buying what I wanted and not have a mountain of cardboard around here. I've made the most profit from timing things. Grabbing cards as soon as they're listed is the most profitable if they are inserted at a low BIN. Gotta love those 3 am auctions. Set your alarm, get up for 5 min, then go back to bed. |

Thanks guys.
Great feed back. You help more the you know.
I have decide how I am going to approach this now.
Guess it's time to read my how to EBay books. Can't
believe I have avoided EBay my whole professional career so far just to have it
part of my social life.
Thank again. You'll be seeing allot of me
around.

Buy the cards you really want for your collection of E-bay or other sources and only pay what you are comfortable paying. I don't buy many boxes because I have not had much luck getting what I want that way. Trading is a great way to get what you want. If you are looking to turn some cards for profit or to support your collection you should educate yourself so you know what prices are good buys so when you do see one you can snatch it up before someone else does. Watch E-bay auctions ending in the early morning hours when everyone is sleeping and you can get some great deals.
Good luck!!!!! |
