New to trading & ready to learn!

Hi All,

I have always been a sports fan but never collected sports cards. Recently my boyfriend bought 21 boxes of football, basketball & baseball cards from a guy who just wanted them out of his garage. My boyfriend handed them over to me & said have fun.

I know nothing about selling/trading cards. I did get a Beckett for basketball because I have no idea how much these cards are worth. I have so many it a little overwhelming.

I would appreciate any advice and guidance. I have cards dating back to the 60's-2008.

Thank and I will see you all in the forums!

Welcome Celia,
Something he forgot to mention is that if you are trading on here you will need to mail in bubble mailers. Everybody will help you along the way, if you trade with someone, just ask them questions while it is happening everyone on here will help.
