    Is Ebay Dying?

    I think the establishment of several potential rivals to eBay's sports memorabilia business is finally taking hold. BidStart, eCrater, COMC and even Amazon are slowly expanding their respective chunks of the market. It was a real pity Yahoo couldn't be bothered to fix the problems in their...

    Could anyone tell me how many cards these players have?

    SCF's database includes a couple of EY Jr.'s minor league cards that Beckett missed: 2005 Casper Rockies Team Issue #24 2007 Modesto Nuts Grandstand #1 And I know he has a card in the 2008 Tulsa Drillers set and the 2009 & 2010 Colorado Springs Sky Sox sets.

    Rusty Tillman (baseball) collector?

    If the Rusty Tillman collector I traded with sometime in the last few years would shoot me a PM, I have something interesting for you.

    need some feedback on this card

    Yeah, the set is recognized as being issued by Renata Galasso, though TCMA actually did the printing. And for the record, they are not any more glossy than your average 1981 Fleer card.

    What annoys you about EBAY sellers?

    A-men! The image should ONLY include the item you are selling in THAT auction.

    What annoys you about EBAY sellers?

    keyword spamming (listing tons of players in the description that have nothing to do with the item being listed) fraudulent eye-catching keywords ("eBay 1/1s") poor photos of the item misspellings flagrant misuse of words like rare, scarce and vintage (yes "vintage" is subject to wide...

    The baseball card hobby in Mexico

    It amazes me that with all the non-sports, soccer and wrestling (almost always WWE, not even AAA or EMLL) stickers available in Mexico that Mexican baseball isn't more represented in mass market junk. With the exception of soccer, it seems like most Mexican collectors would rather import...

    The baseball card hobby in Mexico

    Having semi-tackled Venezuela, with a little inspiration from member r2d2 (who has already helped out with several corrections), I took a stab at broadening the world's knowledge of baseball cards and stickers in Mexico...

    Made a baseball card blog, any opinions/comments?

    Agreed, by all means, when the mood strikes you go ahead and write them, but just keep them as drafts. Your individual posts will get more views if they're able to sit out there for about a day before posting the next one. Eventually you'll probably be picked up on the sports card blog roll...

    online checklists for Japanese, Mexican, Venezuelan and minor league baseball sets

    I've finally written up a not-so-brief blog post on my involvement in the Inventory Manager system over at SportsCardForum. And while this posting does relate almost entirely to another trading site, the emphasis is on the wonderful tool being built over there that I would recommend everything...

    Best Scanner out there for the price?

    Any model in particular? I own one of the LiDE line (not an option due to poor color accuracy), and all the scanners I see on their site are recessed.

    Best Scanner out there for the price?

    Does anyone know of a flatbed scanner where the scan surface is smooth all the way across, and not recessed? I want something I can use to scan larger items in sections, but not have them get bent and wrinkled from the scanner lid smashing the paper into the depression where the glass is. It...

    Teen Stabbed With Fork Over Baseball Card, Cops Say

    Or perhaps he misunderstood Yogi's advice about what to do when you come to a fork in the road.

    Beckett Forum Mess-Is this site ever going to be right again?

    As with most companies owned by a parent company that has no understanding of their business, the primary business model at Beckett seems to be one of continually cutting costs (eliminating staff, meaning writers, researchers, web developers, etc.) in order to drive profits. Their parent...

    Does anyone have a card blog for their collections?

    I haven't been posting much about my collection lately, mostly about other topics. Hard to get motivated sometimes. I need to catch up on posting about the smaller player collections again. I've fallen behind on Steve Howard and Dann Howitt.
