Get bored with the bay...

I'm getting bored with surfing ebay here lately. Everything seems way overpriced and in horrible shape. It's actually probably just what I'm looking at though. So tell me, when you guys and gals surf the bay, what do you type in to look for? Just curious and trying to expand my horizons.

    I look to buy raw post and jello cards.. mantle, clemente and maris...

    you??
  • I've never really been into vintage. Never thought about trying it out. I wonder if it would give me the same thrill as a modern game used or auto? I just recently found this on ebay for under $5 each.

    Felt pretty good when I got these.

    I am 34 and grew up in the 80's and 90's when collecting was at its peak...
    and before grading.. so vintage cards almost regardless of condition were off limits...
    especially on my non existent budget.. I just got back into this in the last few mos.. I feel like a kid again when these
    cards show up... I bought my first mantle a few months back.. and it was great...

    When I go on the bay, I first check out my favorite sellers stores. To see whats new. This usually does not take long since I look everyday. Then I check out PSA and SGC graded cards. Then I go to original autographs. Then I continue on to the several other hobbies I have that keeps me busy for hours looking and buying.
  • I type in the same thing: "2000 edge supreme". I'll finish set if it kills me.

    I've heard some collectors feel this way.

    I'm out of money this year except for some low end buying - so it's kind of moot.

    But, I know what ya mean - even commons for my 63F BB set are hard to find in the centering I want and the price I'm willing to pay.

    I've been looking for some odd-ball stuff instead.

    But, I'm one of the few "odd" people who'll buy it! image
