For may reasons, mostly being that the site takes a crap load of my time, attention and finances, a new VIP membership is being established to give perks to those who choose to support the site financially, so that in time, I will be freed up to give my attention to the site full time.   

What changes from here?   Not much for those who want to continue to use the site for free or visitors who are checking the site out.    VIP will still be encouraged to spend most their time in the Free Section of the forum to accomidate new members.   

Here are the major Changes that will take place when the VIP Membership starts.
VIP members may only list cards for sale in I NEED TO SELL THIS QUICK
Raffles will have a 10% fee
Only VIP members will be able to post box/case break results and make them available to sell
Some additional benefits for VIP Members will be
As above, you will continue to be able to post in I NEED TO SELL THIS QUICK
Your Ebay listings ending soon will show up in the bottom ebay widget
You will get 1 Free Raffle/year
A Sticky Ultimate Feedback that shows up on first pages of the ULTIMATE FEEDBACK
Entered into a Monthly Drawing for prize/Prizes
Participate in VIP discussions and be first to learn about Special Deals
Other perks that I decide to announce will be posted in the VIP section first
To activate your account to VIP, purchase your Yearly Membership here.
Cost is a little over $8/ month

Once you purchase, allow a day for your new settings to be changed.  

Those who have been around for a while know the value the site gives
them, and consider this VIP a way to give back and help me devote more
of my time to keep the site great and free from shenanigans as we
grow.   I give the site at least 40 hrs/ week right now and it has hurt
my main source of income, so in order to maintain the amount of focus I
give, the site simply needs to produce income, and shoving annoying
link and pop up ads in your face is not the direction I want to go.  Nor do I want to just set it and forget it.    The site is the best MMA trading card site because I give it my passion.   

The new VIP section will be located at the bottom of the forum.   
All current Raffles and NEED TO SELL QUICK threads will get to run their course before being deleted.

	There is now a Subscription button towards the bottom of the Forum to start or renew your VIP membership. Anyone who's been a VIP for a year may choose the monthly or Yearly subscription. This will save me from having to remind you on your anniversary or make you wonder why your settings have changed all of a sudden. Any questions, just send me a PM.
