    Posted: 30 Mar 2010 at 10:34am
So I just started collecting MMA cards cause I am a huge fan of MMA. I went to UFC 94 last year and that was the best time I have ever had. I have only been collecting for about a week but have all the ufc, wec, and debut cards. I do have a couple autos and relics too but wan to further my way into knowing the best way to find other memberable cards. I know it is not going to be simple but want to just know what others are doing...

I think locating what you want is about knowing why you are collecting.   There are usually 2 camps.   Collectors who just want to own what they buy and then there are investors trying to buy low and sell high.  
The best advice I can give is to take your time, ask lots of questions and don't bid on emotion.   That will save you tons.

Buy lots when possible and sell singles when possible.  Give up the 1 card that people are overpaying for at the moment to get the 3 that you have been wanting for awhile.

collect what u like - best advice any collector can follow - if ur in the game for the $$$ then u will always be doubting what u spent or didnt on a card - if u collect what u like and never plan to sell then youll enjoy everything u have....though finding that once in a while steal that ends up being worth alot more then u paid is always nice too ;) LOL
