2000 for me.

Pretty sure my first purchase was a Rescue Hero toy for my son that we couldn’t get anywhere in NY.

I registered in April of 1999. For several of those early years Jack87 was my bidding nemesis...my bids never could top his.

April 6, 1999

I miss the early days!

I remember back around August 1999 there was a T206 Drum back on auction that didn't list the back in the title and the card was posted under Tobaccania rather than Sports Cards (the search function wasn't nearly what it is today). I stayed late in work (back when you could get on ebay in a financial services job) because the internet connect was better than what I had at home. I was the high bidder at about $25 until there was 30 seconds left. I had a max bid of $500 (that was a lot of disposable income for me), but unfortunately it shot up to $520 at the last second. It still hurts!
