Hello from Edmonton

Hi

Just joined this community and wow, pure awesome. I never knew something like this existed, where people can actively trade their hockey cards online.
As alot of people, I collected cards as a kid/teen, and then stopped collecting for the past 20 years. With the McDavid rush, I've been part of the trading card resurgence boom and have been going nuts on buying limited edition Oilers cards.
I bought my first Upper Deck series one box, and was feeling down for spending 150 dollars on cards, until I opened the 5th pack from my very first box, too see a Connor McDavid Young Guns.
Since then, I've spent well over 1700 dollars on McDavid/Gretzky card memorabilia. My wife wants to murder me for such an act, but it took alot of persuasion to convince her that these are investments =) (Even though I have no intention of selling these, ever).

But in spending this much, I have acquired over hundred memorabilia/autograph cards that I would like to put up for sale/trade. Mainly trade.

I've been browsing around, the inventory/store area, but cannot seem to get any traction on where to start.
I want to start out by uploading all my cards for trade/sale. Can anyone direct me as to where to start?

Any help/direction would be greatly greatly appreciated

Thank You, and hope to contribute to this community

Cheers!

Welcome to the online community! Welcome to SCF!

I would suggest scanning / taking photos of your collection and uploading the images into albums on Photobucket or another 3rd party site for images. (You could also use the SCF Inventory for this as well)

Once you do that, post the link in your signature, and post up a trade list of all your traders, this way you can show off which cards your have for trade, while also letting collectors know what stuff you collect too. Trading sites like these are great for showing off your collections, and just talking hobby with fellow like-minded individuals. It's really fun!

Best of luck, and welcome, welcome, welcome ! :)
