Quick eTopps tips

[js0000001]

1. If you need to get a ton of eBay feedback easily eTopps is a good way to go. Never even have to go to the PO!

2. Buy when everyone dumps at the end of a season and sell at the beginning of the next season. Easy money

3. Cards from 2001-03 are far superior quality with the raised logos. The logo on the newest cards aren't even foil but just some yellow ink.

4. User generated fantasy games are awesome.

5. If your wife get pissed when she sees a ton of envelopes come in the mail. Go eTopps! they hold the cards so your wife never knows.

6. The price of the card includes insured indefinite climate controlled storage. and you can buy cards for less then a dollar often.

7. eTopps cards grade very well as they are uncirculated and sealed.


Am I forgetting anything?

Another one: when you get them delivered in large amounts, they come in a box thats perfect for storing cards!!

My favorite tip......

Save your reward points so that you never have to pay to have your cards shipped, and use your extra points for some great trade bait cards from the rewards catalog.

10. Dont try to buy a large amount at IPO thinking "just maybe.." as it will most likely only hold up your funds until they release them back due to a sell out.

11. Buy IPO on Mondays at 1PM. EST PST ? Sometimes minutes matter.

12. Many users have multiple ports so they can buy multiples as it appears during a sellout everyone only gets 1.

I dont collect etopps. Did the 1st year they came out and they all turned into $1 cards. I dont collect anymore but was curious and bought all of the MiLB this year to flip and have sold them all and made $16 after fees. From what I've read, it's not always like that.
