Just a couple days a go, a colleague from work showed me his collection of NBA basketball cards. From rare 1/1 to 1/500 cards that he had, I was amazed. In the numbers game, he told me he had spent close to $5K and his cards are worth more than double that. He purchased box-loads at a time. This inspired me to start collecting. Don't get me wrong, I have collected cards before as a kid, but never have I done it professionally. The typical Yu-Gi-Oh! and WWE cards were as far as I went.
What I want to know is - where do YOU! buy your cards from? I mainly want to collect vintage and current NBA along with football (known to most of you as soccer) and possibly baseball cards. I live in Australia but that doesn't change anything as worse case I will get the items dropshipped to my house.
Also, are there any collections that a beginner should buy from the word go? Cannot wait to hear from you all!
