Posted By: <b>Joann</b><p>The more I pick my slots for needed Detroit players, the more I tend to find them in the BST as opposed to ebay, although ebay is still big. Auctions a part of it that I expect will grow.<br /><br />Current (Last 4 months):<br /><br />50% ebay<br />40% BST<br />10% auctions<br /><br />Projected 1.5-2 years from now:<br /><br />30% ebay<br />40% BST<br />30% auctions<br /><br />Joann

Posted By: <b>robert a</b><p>Most of my cards come from guys I know (or don't know) through this board. I've been trading with many of the same guys over and over for quite a while.<br />Look forward to more. <br /><br />I try to buy mostly "out of the way stuff" on ebay like non-sports.<br /><br />robert a
