This is something I have been thinking about for a while now, and after talking to my brother today, weve decided to go all out and make an online business out of my card collecting. I know the general gist of what I want to do, but does anyone (especially people that are doing this for a business) have any good startup advice?
Looking forward to any and all help
Thanks
Ed

i would get a wide variety of everything from vintage,prospects,inserts,rcs ect. if you go to shows you can usually buy alot of stuff cheap and then resell on the internet.

What are you planning on doing?

The first thing you should do is spend $99 on a great Business Plan creator. Plan everything out and make sure you have the cash to run the business for 2+ years. The problem with most people that fail is they don't plan.

Once your site is up and running get as many link exchanges to your website as possible. Make sure they are sport and sport card related. E-mail five websites a day and hopefully 1 will agree to a link exchange. That will get you nearly 400 inbound links in 1 year and get you traffic and help you rank well in Google.

That is my 2 cents for now. Good luck!
