Is this ebay seller legit?

Based on the feedback alone, I would stay away. Actually, I would run in the other direction. Yes, I think this is a case of it seems too good to be true.

If you are looking for particular cards, I'd start looking in our own BST. If you don't see a card for sale, start a thread stating what you are looking for. Be mindful of the other members, and don't bump your topic every other day. I think when I was selling, I bumped about once a week. That seems about right to me. Also, limit the number of topics you have on a particular board to just a couple. If you show respect for the few "rules" the boards have, and the other members of Net 54, believe me, you will be on the road towards getting what you need for your collection. The people on this forum are great, and want to help each other.

I advertise in my signature what I am building, and then start topics in the appropriate forum discussing what I am building. I have people messaging me privately offering to help me with my build, asking what cards I am looking for, and in what condition, etc. The people here are great in providing lists and pictures of what they have, their asking price, etc. I am working on the 1975 Topps set right now until I am able to spend a little more, and get back to working on the T206 set, so people are inquiring about what I need.

Become an active, positive contributor to the forum. The way I see it, you will get out of Net 54 what you put into it. "Pay it forward". If you can do something to help a fellow board member, do it. I haven't had a lot of money to do some of the things I've wanted to, but I try to do other things to help people, like giving detailed answers to questions I might find, or helping people with research, etc. This is easily the best forum I've ever been on, and I've been on a good number of forums. Sometimes people will bump heads here, but for the most part, this place is one big, happy (although slightly dysfunctional) family. I love it here!

If there is anything I can help you with, please do not hesitate to message me. I check this place at least a few times every day, the frequency changing depending on my pain level. But if you message me, I will always respond. I don't know everything, or close to everything, but I've learned a lot in the last few years because people have helped me, and pointed me in the right direction. I am more than happy to share what I have learned to help our new members out.

Have fun, and good luck!
