Hello i been looking for a place to get some feedback on things about cards .i have got back into cards after years of being away ,about a year now i been collecting tom brady cards mostly his rookie lower end card up to like $200.00 like the bowmen 2000 an some of the 2002 cards sp upperdeck ,patriots players cards james white an alot of others ,i also thought if i am going to get into this i have to exspand to other teams mostly football right now paxton lynch excites me ,kenneth dixon .tj watt among many others the low # Auto cards duke johnson . ,right now i sell on ebay .i seen a thread from 2010 that caught my interest ,i get all my cards graded couse i feel like the customer wants mostly .to know what they are getting. i used beckett a few times ,but found there cost was not what i want to pay ,so went to GMA an after 15 years in business i found there are just as good ,if not better i have stayed away from a few cards i seen that were minted 10 from others with corners clearly dinged ,anyway i have some back round in jewelry so i think that helps with getting a good eye on gradeing an sell on ebay too,i been geting 30 cards per month graded an have like 3000 cards so far about 500.00 auto #s cards where the money could be i am finding it can be kinda of a bet with cards too ,other then TB 12 so far ,i been a patriots fan for 45 years an turn 50 this month thanks

thank you i plan to get some pre 80s.s cards over time,its kinda like jewlery in alot of way as there is so much to know ,i need to get a price book of sorts for now i kinda price things based on other card sellers an some guys i notice are looking for short term.quantity sale ,an others are looking for a card that will go up in value with time ,cards seem to have lower numbers from like the 90s too now a card may have been numbered to 2000 to 7000 ,i am seeing cards only as high as 500 for some players ,i am .thinking increaces value faster with a good player like Dak prescott his cards are up there ,is kinda what i hope with paxton lynch as well as jimmy g an others,i am going for cards some underdogs an guys i know will do well,like under 250 numbers wise or 500 if i can get a card cheap enough.one thing for sure cards prices have gone up for alot of players in different sports of all kinds

Welcome! You've got alot of great questions. Recommend you create a thread for some of them individually in the Football Forum to get some specific responses. There are also some recent threads especially on anything Patriots/Brady and Dak Prescott. Good luck!
