Hi, I would just like to take a minute to explain from the Buyers side. I have been buying and selling etopps cards for about 3 years. (without holding hundreds of cards) Cardtarget offered us a site to quickly (one click) without an ebay auction to buy and sell our cards. We would have an account where our money would be kept if we wanted to remove it at any time we could(also one click) I guess thats why we trust mike with our money. I have had no problem with there banking. As far as the cardtarget shares right now I have Basicly transfered my etopps cards into shares of what I consider to be better cards. I only have about $500.00 worth, by investing about 430.00 and if I decide to get out tomorow there are many buyers offers. I would make about 475.00 on a quick sell like this but for many of us this is much better then what we are used to with etopps. Plus in the future we will vote to sell the card and devide it's sale bu the shares and many of us feel the value will be enough to make us a little money. I know it must be hard for most people who are not used to dealing with virtual cards but I just thought i would try to explain a little where were coming from. Also i would like to add that since cardtarget started this project I have gained alot of interest in the lower grade cards and bought some. Thats what brought me to this forum in the first place. My stupid question about my first cracker jack card. I have started a little collection of old cards and am sure I'll buy more. This can't be bad advertising for the vintage card market. I'm sure this type of market is not for everyone but it can be alot of fun for some of us and it really does draw alot of interest in some great cards that many of us have never even looked into before. Thanks!
