Poll: BST Activity for 2024

[B O'Brien]

Living in the south, means there aren’t really any shows and I’ve never hit the FB forums, so I do a considerable amount of buying and selling on the BST.

The bay fees and hassle are a pain, so I’d rather pass things along to board members when I upgrade or move things around. The BST also lets me do some great trading and if I find something that I need to charge until I can get some things sold to cover the tab the BST is the place.

I’ve spent anywhere between $30 and a few K on cards this year, from the BST, and I’ve sold about the same. I’m not trying to make $ very often, unless I got a steal on eBay, just usually free up cash when I make an upgrade or see something fun.

I do love the BST, but it was really awesome back during my first time here in 2008-11. Of course things were a lot cheaper then, so you could do a lot more deals without blowing your budget back then. There were far fewer auctions then, as well.

Long live the BST!

Love the BST community, the collectors and their collections here are unparalleled in the hobby. I've made connections with really great people here and have acquired cards that would most likely not make it to an AH.
The fact that we can trade/sell within our own community makes it that more special.
