good point! i did not have ebay until 4 years ago.mostly doing shows and looking in phone books and beckett adds and calling around. it was tuff! Sam does not put scans because of his dial up! have any of you had a speed of 11 kb??? it sucks!!!!!takes 15min just to make a bid on ebay! been there done that! however in the 90's i could go to a show every day to find cards.every show had 100 tables or more with diff dealers around chicago.most of them travled the country to buy and sell.to me it was better then than ebay is now!! so to quit collecting in 95-well as the songs goes-"that dont impress me much"
