They have electronic baseball cards now. I’ll keep enjoying the paper.

I don't spend much time looking through the catalogs, but they do often remind me to go online and check an auction I may have otherwise forgotten about.

At least "sometimes" got some more votes.
Pretty evenly split. Nice poll questions.

AHs should encourage this catalog opt-out by providing incentives, just as H&S does.

I would probably do this for every AH except REA (depending on the incentive).

Whew!!!
I had a huge pile of catalogs building on the shelfs. It happens about every 3-4 yrs that I need to throw them away.
Yes, I receive many, many catalogs in like 15-20 auction houses over the yrs.
Now, just throwing away 2 garbage bags full, weighing like 200 lbs..I am done with it!!!
I wanna go green.
Over recent time, I been able to preview or look at the auctions before I get the catalog anyways. It only acts as a reminder when I receive it to maybe place a bid.
I also use auction reports frequently to view the calander or oldcardboard's site.
So I am asking---
Which Ah's have the 'go green' feature/option??

I'm a "sometimeser" as well.

What I do is scan through all of them to see if there is any full page photos of great historicity or Cubs affiliation, I'll trim it out and continue to decorate the back of my enormous desk I have in my office. I have nicely presented photos of Cobb/Ruth, Gehrig's famous speech, period Cubs jerseys, etc.
