    Need some opinions

    I'm wondering how valuable (in your opinion) is it to have an online price guide. ive been finding recently it would be nice to have one, but im just wondering is it really worth the $5 or w/e it is a month. wat ive been finding is people have been asking me when im trading what a card books at and ive been having to respond with im not sure, which in turn leads to me making a thread in here and not getting a reply. any opinions?

    You can always opt to buy the magazine once every two months that way you'll only have to pay $5 every other month or even less frequently if you want. And you get what you need most of the time. The articles are interesting too sometings.

    I think it's worth doing it, but I can just go to my library and pick up the most recent Beckett - and that is free! ;-)

    lol....maybe another library in the area does and you can request it? my library covers all over heck and gone, so I can request a book from a different library online, and it'll be in within a week or so usually. Is there a website for your library? Try checking it out if so!

    Walmart has them too, and they usually take 10% off the cover price, making the bi-monthly issue $8.99

    i have OPG, you can never go wrong with it and if you dont want it its as simple as not buying it again for the next month, but it is hard to make deals if someone dont know a bv of a card there trying to trade and likewise someone can scam another person saying its lower or higher than it really is, so either get the OPG or Quarterly which is $10 bux.

    i think it depends on the volume of trading. i splurge a few times a year to do the online one to just update my excel spreadsheet of cards.

    I just purchased an OPG for basketball. It was a little confusing to search at first but I'm now getting the hang of it. I like how you can add cards you look up to your personal inventory.
