    This place looks amazing!

    Hey guys, I just got back into collecting baseball cards, and am very excited. I’m trying to keep my budget as low as I can, but I still want to have fun. I heard about TTM autographs and I was very intrigued. So I bought a bunch of cheap packs from the junk era, specifically topps from 87-91. I just got my first returned autograph from Greg Gange. Anyways, an tips for a new collector on a budget? Thanks

    Hey there, welcome to SCF! And one tip I will pass on is if you're on a budget don't be afraid to pass on a card that you want. A lot of times it will pop up later down the line for a cheaper price, depending on the card.

    Best of luck !

    See https://www.ebay.com/usr/nine_pockets's Items on eBay Instagram:

    Welcome!

    If you have any cards that you don't want, you can also try to trade them to other SCF members who can then send you back cards that you do want. That can definitely help keep the costs down.

    Check out the specific trading threads for that. And have fun!
