I do collect a lot of non-sports cards, but I don't think I have anything worth paying $5 to grade. Anyone going to send non-sports cards in?
Running an Ebay store sure takes a lot more time than a person would think!

    I am planning on sending in some Brady Bunch cards. In the 5 to 7 range.

    I have been out of sports cards since '91. I now mostly collect coins. Have enough sports cards in storage to fill the back of a good sized van. Nothing newer than '91. Oldest '54 of someone that played for the St. Louis Browns baseball team.

    Collect for the love of the hobby, the beauty of the coins, and enjoy the ride.

    I assume you looked over on the nonsport forum.

    It was fun when it first opened - I believe Lee aka Speeder was the driving force behind it's creation?

    I posted there but no one had any interest in what I displayed. I wrote a nice write up on the Dinosaurs Attack Topps set of 1988 and got only a fair response - I was disappointed since I took a lot of time on it.

    So, I stopped.

    Mark aka MorrellMan is a big nonsport collector. When I'm buying, I look for the British sets of movie stars since I find the price to be within my easy reach.

    I think the Germans did some unbelievable printing in the first part of the 20th century.

    Good luck in your collecting!

    Mike, I agree that the non-sport board is lame. No matter what I post, I never get any replies.

    I know there are some Mars Attacks collectors on the boards here. Someday I'll get that set going, but I've put myself on ebay probation for this month.

    I've got a few sets in progress and I'll be submitting some cards and hoping for the best.

    I collect non-sportscards (M:tG) and I have a pile of cards to submit, but I don't think I'll get to it this month; there's just too many cool things to buy out there image . I figure since I already have the cards and my membership has over a year left, there is no rush, right? Eventually I'll break down and send in some more, but for now I must give all my money to that evil eBay thingy... image


    BTW - I don't know how many of you are familiar with Magic cards, but in the ad for this month's special they picture the most famous one of all... the Black Lotus. This card, even in PSA 1, would be worth a couple of hundred dollars; the picture is just to the left of the line "valued $75 or less" image
