Your �go to� vintage dealer(s) on EBay

Battersbox and Greg Morris.

Battersbox has mostly (if not all) BINs, while Greg Morris has mostly (if not all) auctions with low starting bids. Battersbox also has frequent inventory reduction sales that I've taken advantage of in the past.

I have bought many cards from Battersbox with no issues. Also, you can buy directly from their website where prices are usually lower than their listings for the same cards on eBay.

And you can find many cards, via other sources, that are much cheaper than the Batterbox as well, and that's not saying anything about their grading, which, imo, definitely could be a lot better.

OK Carl Woodward, let's hear about your sources.

P.S. I like that Sawchuck memorial card you have.

I've been very happy with both Batters Box and Scottsdale. Both have easy to use websites, discounts over eBay and accurate scans. As far as grading, I don't have complaints - I look at the scan and price, and if I feel they match, then I get the card, whether it's listed as NrMt, EMt or Ex+++ or whatever.

My go to person/business when I was purchasing 52 Topps cards at a feverish pace was Greg Morris Cards. At least 85-90% of my current collection, outside the 148 my father gave me, were from Greg Morris.

Currently, since I haven't purchased many 52 Topps cards in a while, my seller list is quite huge but that is based on collecting hockey cards from CDN sellers.

I have, and continue to purchase cards from texasholdem (EBay and possible member here still?) who sells both hockey and baseball cards quite regularly.

My experience with The Battersbox wasn't that great based on the card I purchased. It had both front and reverse wrinkling/creases that weren't described in their ad nor were visible on their scans. Granted, their grading system is different than most but describing creases, etc, should, imo, be disclosed. Shipping from GM cards is more reasonable as well.

One of the older guys, but I've always thought Kit Young was fair. Haven't checked him out recently, but he used to have a lot of BIN's.
