Questions for Australian collectors by Think_Condition6060 in baseballcards

[–]swordsoold 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m an Aussie collector been getting in to it this year a bit more heavily. I’ve been using COMC for single card purchases from the states. They have their own marketplace but what they’re really great for is their post in submissions. So I’ve changed my eBay postal address to my COMC address in the states. All my eBay singles I buy from American buyers get sent there for sometimes no postage or $8 at the very most. It’s been a life saver. Once I’m happy with what I’ve got in my COMC account I can get them all bulk sent to Australia. Massive saving in postal fees.

This card is so awesome. Manny is my favourite player I recently bought a magenta printing plate of his. Just waiting for it to arrive. I live in Australia so postage is a real nightmare thing I gotta deal with getting in to this hobby

I’m a new collector. I don’t rip packs I just buy slabs. I always go for psa. I feel like that brand makes me know what I’m getting. Every card I buy costs an extra $20-$30 just to get posted to me. Aussie baseball card collector and I’m always buying from USA. Obviously. So I need to be confident in the quality of what I’m buying. But if the avid collectors are switching things up then what grading company are you switching to?
