Think about different things to write about and I figured I’d go for sharing one among many nuggets of wisdom in hopes it will help some of y’all newer collectors. It may seem obvious but don’t automatically buy the least expensive item in a group of cards or memorabilia you are looking at to buy on eBay. There are many factors of buyer needs to look at before actually purchasing a given listing.
I strongly suggest the price not be the first consideration one takes into account when buying a sports card online — especially on eBay. The first factor that a savvy buyer should look at is the seller’s reputation. Does the individual have bad feedback? If so does it look like there’s a good logical reason for the feedback?
Next look at the shipping costs as these additional charges can seriously destroy an otherwise good deal and end up making you pay more on the backend that you would have otherwise.
You’ll also want to make sure the seller has a reasonable return policy. You want to ensure that the individual take care of you have something goes wrong with the transaction.
If you take these factors into account you’ll have a lot more peace of mind when building your collection online. You might pay a little bit more but at least to me the extra peace of mind is well worth it.
