    check out my cards question

    Make sure to look into the fees for getting money, unless you don't want any money. From what I understand it's good to sell there if you use the money to buy cards that are listed on COMC. If you sell your cards there and hope to get money back, I think they charge more fees than feebay, if...

    Scanning my PC... what to leave out?

    You would also clearly have too much time on your hands. With that much free time I think you could save the earth single handedly by planting trees or something... Or do a cover song of that awesome tune by Styx, "Too Much Time on my Hands"

    Scanning my PC... what to leave out?

    I don't think we can help too much, only with general advice. Like "do what makes you happy". I just scan as I need them, I just have way too much crap to scan it all. So if I'm having a discussion that requires a scan of a card that I have, I just go home and scan it when I get a chance. It...

    Are they really from 2003? Seems to me like they would be from 2005...

    2002 donruss originals aqueous

    They look the same if you scan them. I keep them in a penny sleeve/top loader/team bag arrangement. When they are all bagged up like that, they look the same. I had to take them out recently to tell the difference. You pretty much have to have them in hand and let the light hit them. Then...

    why do ebay buyers do this to sellers?

    dang mintman, that second story is sad. For the first story though, I think if they leave you a positive and some 1's, you can get the 1's removed...

    The world according to beckett.

    This was done by design by Dr. Beckett. There is a niche of collectors who use these crazy BVs to their benefit. For example, they can buy a card off ebay for $2, but it books for $20. They trade their $20 BV for another $20 BV card, but the card they get sells for $60 on ebay. So whenever...

    why do ebay buyers do this to sellers?

    I can understand why people do it. The shipping is $3, and you know that before you bid, but you don't know how the card will be shipped until you receive it. There is a certain card I love, there are 25 in the world and I'm trying to get all 25. One showed up on ebay, but the shipping was...

    What does your LCS look like?

    I don't think they spend much time on it. I saw the thing about an event being cancelled on Feb 5.... because of snow... when I saw it yesterday, I was thinking that might have been last year. :eek:

    It Pisses Me Off When eBay Sellers Can't Get Their Descriptions Right!

    Aahhhh, I see. I didn't think about that factor... Well, don't forget that if you want to leave 1s on the DSR you also have to leave a negative.* Seems like it would be worth a couple bucks for the seller to avoid that situation. Because you obviously aren't happy with the description, and...

    It Pisses Me Off When eBay Sellers Can't Get Their Descriptions Right!

    Did the seller offer a refund? If not, I think Paypal will take care of you...

    Have you ever given in to... BURBANK?!

    I'm sure that happens a lot. Many people enjoy hunting for cards, it makes finding them even more satisfying. I mean, I could go buy a deer head and hang it on my wall... but just going out and buying it defeats the purpose. Plus I think they're creepy. (The deer heads). Anyway, I shop for...

    Longest name of a card?

    Absolute Mem does have a good starting point, but so does 2004 Leaf Certified Materials Fabric of the Game Autograph Jersey Year M's Jsy Because Rickey is featured with 5 or so different teams in the set, Beckett was kind enough to put the team in there (on lots of different sets). Why does...

    2011 Topps Baseball Case Break

    That's a good suggestion! Of course, I was looking at CC's, and he's a Yankee, so that might have been why they sold for so much? Regardless, I was amazed at how pricey they were! You can't get $1 for a plain white jersey card #/100... but those went for over $20 consistantly. And the...

    Is Beckett.com being a pain for anyone else right now

    I think everybody should stop going there! When they ruined their site, I never went back. Now I get to sit here in bliss reading about all the problems and frustrations people go through while attempting to use that site. And to think, the sellers pay $250 a month for this privilege! I'm...

    Things I'll never understand

    I did my first 2nd chance offer recently. I had 3 of a card #/10, and sold one. I couldn't believe how much it went for! So I offered the second place guy one of the other two, and he let me know he only bid so much to make the winner pay more. I thanked him kindly, because I was the only...

    Another ebayer copy and pastes my auction description

    "imitation is the sincerest form of flattery" Nice sale!

    Things I'll never understand

    Crazy stuff like this happens more often in other categories on ebay. I shop for toner cartridges a lot. I do best when the seller starts them at $69.99. Nobody wants to bid that much. They want to bid on the one that started at 99 cents... even though now it's @ $110. They'll keep bidding...
