    Starting the year off on the wrong foot...

    Take a guess! How many are there?!?

    Happy 4th of July to all! Recently I cleared out the bunker and tried to organize my collection. Hopefully, the PC makes it into the Supercollector issue of Beckett. For 1 day only, the game used cards were "displayed" (albeit on the floor) all together. Boy did it take a long time! Shortly...

    I'm a PERFECT 2 of 2 NOW...ugh!!!

    In negative feedback...I wouldn't mind if it was "damaged due to poor packaging" or "doesn't communicate" or "fake" or SOMETHING, but to say I didn't get it when the tracking # shows delivered after 3/4 days after payment was made (in both cases)!!! OMG!!! Both times, buyer doesn't contact me...

    Sportsbuy/Naxcom sucks

    For me...Here's why, the sellers are clueless and sportsbuy's customer service and policies are horrible. Unfortunately, Sportsbuy, like Beckett's Marketplace, etc all do serve a purpose for my collection as there are always a "need" or a "want" on the site from time to time. I'm member 5193...

    Striving to be the best - ebay Seller's Detailed Star Rating (DSR)

    Selling anything on ebay is tough and selling cardboard...I mean sports cards is no different. What is "acceptable" to one collector may be "intolerable" to another; therefore, the wide range of varying DSR left for the seller. Trying to satisfy everyone is virtually impossible, but when you try...
