    What do you do with unwanted base cards ?

    Well as the title states... I'm wondering what does everyone do with their unwanted base cards ? I have stacks of them that i could care less about. Trying to figure out a way to get rid of them.

    I usually give them to hobby card shops. Most of the time they accept them and give them to the kids that come through.

    Just make sure they give them away for free :)

    Most of the kids around here are too good for base, save some trees and put them in your blue bin.

    i have been taking base cards for fundraising purposes, there are still people that use the base. I know people have donated base cards to their local Childrens hospitals as well.

    Perfect example of why today's kids are spoiled brats (well, not all). When I was a kid I'd be thrilled if I bought a pack and got an insert w/ a $2 BV!

    The above suggestion are some of the most common. I also use base as fillers when I'm shipping cards.

    I stick them in team bags, add a jersey or auto card (season ticket holder so I get a lot of Caps autos) that I dont need, and give them out for Halloween.

    Cool idea! Doesn't work out well for me as I live in a 21+ no kids condominium. Definitely keep that in mind tho.

    Also, if you have time, you can put them into team lots and sell on eBay. Won't get you much $, but at least youre not throwing them away.
