Best Places to Buy Cards?
Posted By: john henry
Im new to collecting vintage and rookie cards and I was wondering where to go to find the best deals on them...I was looking on ebay, but a lot of stuff on there seems shady to me....like this company Gem Elite...it looks like they grade and sell their own cards and have a GEM 10 or Mint 9 of everything, but I think they are a fraud..isn't that kind of like me opening a company called best mint cards and grading everything a best mint 10? Do you trust ebay for buying cards? |

eBay is a good source of cards, but you need to know what you are buying before you do so. The grading companies you can really trust, as far as vintage goes, is SGC, PSA and GAI. Beckett grades some vintage cards, but they are out of the element with them. |

Yes, Gem Elite sounds like they have a vested interest in their own opinion. The best way to purchase cards if you are not personally sure of their genuineness is to either buy graded cards from the services which Jay has cited, or to buy from our B/S/T, or from a trustworthy dealer; such as those shown in our links, on the Old Cardboard site, or other places or persons who you know that you can trust as honest and knowledgable enuff to know what he is selling. |
