Back in the Card Collection World

[ds1972]

Hi Everybody,
My name is Dale and I've just recently gotten back into collecting. It's been over two decades for me. I'm currently building a 2011 Topps 60th Diamond Anniversary set, and I'm also going though all of my old cards from the late 70's and 80's. Looking forward to trading with you and re-learning the art of card collection. My primary focus is baseball, specifically Topps brand and teaching my son (4yrs old.) how to care for his collections.

Hey Dale, welcome to SCF! If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask.

thank you Andrew, I'll take you up on the offer and ask my first of what will probably be many.
What's the best source for determining card value these days, It used to be Beckett back in my day.

Welcome to SCF Dale.

Beckett is still good for trading so you can work a trade that seems fair, at least in terms of book value. A lot of people use eBay sales to determine fair value for buying/selling. It really depends on who you deal with because some members prefer one over the other. If you have any other questions feel free to ask. You can also join us in the chat room tonight for our New Member Chat. It runs from 8-10 PM eastern time. Hope to see you there. :D

Will do mrveggieman, gotta get things organized again, it has to be 25 years since I've collected. Pulling out all the old stuff is very nostalgic.
