The Sports Card Show is back with loads of information that you can use to help your collections this week.

Some news on the Box Break that will be happening in only a few days from now. Plus Giants51 won our Paul Molitor Jersey card contest last month! Keep you eyes on the Fan Forum for more information and prizes to win!

No Purchase Necessary (NPN) Sports Card Companies cover themselves from trading card becoming a lottery or a gambling game by giving away things for free, or no purchase necessary. Its a great thing to take advantage of because these companies have to do it. Check the back of packs and other company promotional material to find out more about these offers.

Different Kinds of Jersey Cards You have All-Star, Event Worn, Shooting Shirts, Former Teams, Player Worn…ect Seems like you never just get a plain old Game-Worn Jersey Card.  However, this does keep the prices down and the odds of pulling a nice card better which isn’t something to really be too upset about. Just be careful that when you buy single jersey cards you know what you are getting so you won’t be disappointed.

Collecting in the 80’s & 90’s Lots of factors play out in to why this era of cards is not nearly as valuable as what came before it and after. Over-Production, Steroids, and other things made these pieces of cardboard pretty much worthless. We’ll see what happens down the road.

Some big news and information around the hobby this week. We will preview many boxes that have been released over the last two weeks.

09/10 Exquisite Basketball will make its final run this year. Ricky Rubio, Tiger Woods, John Elway and more make it into the set. Sad to see such a great set come to an end.

Selling your cards at card shops is sometime difficult. Store owners tend to low ball you most of the time and we will discuss why they do this and ways you can get them to make better deals with you.

2009 Football rookies have done fairly well. Mark Sanchez has been playing great along with Percy Harvin. A couple of the other top picks (Heyward-Bay and Crabtree) haven’t done so well. All in all its been a good first three weeks to the NFL season and we’ll talk about some of the RC’s that have made an impact.

Plus lots of great product news and information. Plus MORE!!

Complete Show Notes and More

Topps announced an exclusive deal with Major League Baseball to manufacture cards after Jan. 1 2010.  Upper Deck counters with an exclusive deal with the NCAA and retaining MLBPA rights to player head-shot images. This will be interesting to follow going forward.

Hot Packs can be found on eBay all the time.  We talk about how these sellers find these packs and whether or no you should buy them.
