FYI - 2010 Bowman Chrome refractors
The easiest way to tell is without looking at the back.If the card has a border it will be "chrome" in color as opposed to white or whatever color the border is on the base card.- Go Fish!!

MOD...Please Close
There just doesn't seem to be enough cards of animals (living or extinct)."World Leaders" of 3rd world countries.Hoax and hoodwinked cards.I've probably left a few out i'm sure but there needs to be more of these type cards added..You know to keep the set builders happy..- Go Fish!!

Topps Gypsy Queen Baseball To Feature Extensive Relic Set
To each his own I guess..But on the same note all those "junk" prospects,well at least they are sports cards..I don't really see much of a demand for world leader or extinct animal cards among collectors or whatever kind of junk they put in Ginter..Oh I forgot to mention the "biggest hoax"...- Go Fish!!

Topps Gypsy Queen Baseball To Feature Extensive Relic Set
Not such a bad idea I think.I will say that I really like the retro designs but I loathe all the NON sports cards that are put into them especially Ginter.Just to name a couple of No Frill sets,Bowman and topps chrome come to mind..Even Tribute has non sports cards in it now..Pay $250 bucks and...- Go Fish!!

Being mainly a vintage collector,I have given up on trying to piece sets together and decided to just buy complete sets now when I find a good deal out there.Like stated earlier some things are getting harder to find and actually in the long run I think it is way cheaper to buy a set than to...- Go Fish!!

I'd like to chat with a card store owner
Myself and a friend of mine who also collects have been selling at local shows to more or less support our buying habits for the past year.Maybe you should try this first before taking the plunge.Get yourself a table top display case,put a few dollar boxes together with inserts and rookies(We...- Go Fish!!

My Trading Board Pet Peeve
I toatally agree with all the above and would like to add that what really gets my goat is when someone posts all for sale check my bucket.Almost always I get,"Well that one isn't for sale"..Why do traders always do this!! I won't even look at buckets anymore because of this....I love this site...- Go Fish!!

My Dimaggio auto- REAL or FAKE??
I hope you can find that guy to get your money back..The "D" is way off as well as the way it looks overall.It also seems way too small.I hope I'm wrong but I gotta call "BS" on that signature..- Go Fish!!

Get Rid Of The CMB Forum
That is the problem with CMB...Seems like 9 times out of 10 people who post CMB never update!!! If you can't update your bucket,what's the point? That's why I don't use one and will not check any..How many times have you heard my bucket is open and then when you ask about something it has...- Go Fish!!

Question on vintage cards - cutting/shaving
I don't think the problem is as prevelant as some collectors make it seem.I look at it this way.As long as you feel like the card hasn't been altered and you paid what you feel is fair for the card then it's all good.When collecting vintage if it doesn't seem right then walk away,You will always...- Go Fish!!
