If I were to tell someone about FCB, what would/should I say

RandomH · Jan 16, 2010

Title says it all.

I'm thinking

-All 4 major sports
- Player Collectors/Team Collectors/Prospectors/Vintage/TTM/Set/ ECT
- Great atmosphere
- Group Breaks

IDK, I like to toss in a note regarding this site to people I trade with.

Googled for truth.

Just rambling, but:
Generous members, freebies, contests,
live chatrooms,
group submissions to BGS,
Magicpapa,
literal experts on seemingly every topic,
user friendly,...
add the word "amazing" to Player collectors

Has any scientist or archeologist ever uncovered a "big-boned" skeleton?

Guess no lunch for me today. Looks like I'm starting a diet after seeing that. Just threw up a little bit in my mouth.

Just tell them to read this post and it will explain any question they may have.

About the best thing to tell people is that if they really want to learn the most they can about the hobby and cards in general, this is one of the best places to come. We have some guys on here who have some of the sickest collections and who know more about the hobby and cards than a lot of others. You can come here knowing very little and after a while, you will know more than just about anybody you run into. I am constantly telling people at my local shops about things they didn't know. People who have been running a business for just about as long as I have been alive. Its wild.

I guess the only question is: do they really want to know? Some people don't care enough or are too causual to appreciate this site or the info the collectors here know. Its certainly not for everyone. Some people don't care about the hobby enough. IMO, to fully appreciate this place, you have to be sucked in tight. Otherwise you might spend your time here wondering what all the fuss is over this and that.
