Recently I have been searching some auction houses/sites for HOFer autos and vintage Williams items. Have not won anything yet but they typically have AMAZING items that will make your eyes do this :shock: :shock:

eBay - 90%
FCB - 9%
Naxcom - 1%

I've bought quite a few cards and made trades on FCB, the rest I buy off of eBay, but I do occasionally go look at a higher priced, lesser selection at Naxcom.

Since I mainly collect vintage patch cards, my research mainly consists of looking at pictures on Ebay and here, and using Baseball Reference to check out specific years that players played and their stats.
