Hi Dusty,

Welcome. I'm in my mid-30s. You've definitely come to the right place. Here's my advice.

1) buy most of your cards on Net54. The "Buy Sell Trade" section is phenomenal. You will see items here you won't find anywhere else. You will see cards for sale here that are in great condition, but usually at a lower price than on ebay. You don't pay taxes for purchases on Net54. And often shipping is wrapped into the sale price. Most sellers here are honest. Although a bad deal happens occasionally here, Leon, the site host, does a great job of policing membership. It is safer here than on ebay.

2) if you're looking for vintage consider t206. There are so many collectors on this site that deal in t206, and especially the big hits you might be interested in. If you want some sort of financial security, you can't beat it.

3) I'm a Reds collector. When I came here to Net54, I searched the threads looking for Reds related material. I found other Reds collectors and we all post our finds on a common thread. It's fun to share your purchases with others who will appreciate the find and support you. You can also find threads for players, like Brooks Robinson, Mickey Mantle, and Roberto Clemente. Search for something you already know you're interested in and join the conversation. You will make friends on this board sooner than you anticipate. There are 4 or 5 guys i enjoy following.

Enjoy the ride!
