They used to be on Rt 19 just south of Zelienople, but that location is now empty. That is a 30 min drive up 79 from downtown Pgh. I think they are still in the area. If you call them, I'm sure they will be helpful. Wayne and Bill are top notch. You should make the trip if at all possible.

Default Wayne and Bill

Wayne and Bill are two of my favorite guys in the hobby. I always enjoy spending time speaking with them. We have usually managed to have a meal or so together at the National too. Great guys and great for the hobby. They will work with you on pricing a little bit too. Just ask...they are friendly. If they can't do it then they will politely tell you that too. If the whole hobby were made up of Wayne and Bills it would be a more wonderful place.

Default Polite Folks

I've bought a few cards off of them at the National over the years and have thought their prices to be fair and in line with the prices at the time. I personally don't know any of the men and women who work their booth each year, but they are VERY polite and professional with you as a customer.

Wayne and Bill are two nice, fair and honest people, beacons of light in this hobby we enjoy. They stand behind everything they sell, are accurate in their grading, and are a pleasure to work with. Next time I'm in P'bgh I may take a detour to visit their shop.

Cheers, Mike

Once again, I agree with Leon's statement.
Bill and Wayne are legends and I'm proud to know them, as well as the many wonderful people that grace Net54 with their presence. Net54 is the leader in our industry and I'm proud to be a part of it.
All my best to EVERYONE,
Bill Hedin

Hi Bill. Glad you are posting regularly on the board again

As far as Wayne and Bill, I would echo the sentiments above. I have purchased cards from them at both National and through their web service and have spoken to Wayne on the phone. They are always very courteous and I have always been satisfied with the transactions. I know that if I buy a card from them I never have to worry. Their prices are reasonable but they are always willing to listen if a card might be priced a tad high. I give them very high marks and would never hesitate to buy from them.

I absolutely agree with everything said about Wayne and Bill, after having done business with them for many, many years. Two great, honest, down to earth guys.

Default Shoebox Cards

How can you possibly knock Wayne Varner's shoebox cards? Unquestionably, Wayne and Bill are two of the most respectable men in the hobby as well as first class acts. Every one of my dealings with them have been treated with the utmost professionalism.

Sincerely,
Joe T.
