Where to buy single cards?
I'm collecting a certain player and wonder where you other player collectors buy your cards?
I'm aware of the following sites where you can find a bigger quantity of single cards from certain players:
Ebay
Amazon
Beckett Marketplace
COMC
Sportlots
Center Ice Collectibles
Canadian Hockey Cards
ABD Cards
Parallel Dave
Is there anyone with other suggestions on sites I should visit?
Thanks

Parallel Dave I'd avoid. He tried to come on here and sell at ridiculous prices and soon departed.
The other members here on SCF have the fairest prices of all.
You can try Hobby Insider, there used to be a lot of members there, but many have shifted over here.

Center Ice Collectibles is great. In fact I got two cards from him just yesterday lol. eBay, HI, SCF are all viable options.

Burbank Sports has great shipping. He will ship tons of cards for $2.00 but he charges $7.00 and $8.00 for OPC X-Metal parallels for guys that aren't in the league, and he charges premium prices on stars.
If you are a star and have a $5.00-$6.00 BV insert Burbank will charge you 50% of book very often, which is no deal at all no matter how cheap the shipping is.
From 1999-2004 Burbank sold every insert and parallel at 15% of book and less. He has gone way up in price from 10 years ago. He used to be one of the cheapest on eBay. Not anymore, he's nowhere near Parallel Daves high prices, but he's creeping up there.

I find that Burbank's price are way too high. That said, they do have a great selection.
My best sources are comc and sportlots
I've also bought many cards from djsportscardscp on eBay. Great selection, reasonable prices and combined shipping.

Thank you for your answers. I've just made one deal on this forum but I hope to make more in the future :)
Parallel Dave I also just made one deal with but I have good experience with both price and handling.
DJ Sports Cards I've never bought from even if I know they got cards I want. Their prices are way too high in my opinion. On Amazon they listed cards from double the top Beckett value and on Ebay the same card could cost 4 x the Beckett top value with the Buy it now function. And this is for non rare cards...
I will make a try at Hobby Insider though. Thanks for the tip. And keep coming with more suggestions :)

You can also check out armchair Sports cards. Mostly minor league cards though.
