There’s a new website on the block for vintage hockey cards enthusiasts. Vintage Hockey Cards Report dot Com came to life mid-May 2011. The site hopes to stand out amongst all the sports cards sites on the World Wide Web whose sole purpose is to sell cards.
Vintage Hockey Cards Report will provide several articles each week following a few different themes:
· The men behind the cardboard. Features on just what players did during their professional hockey careers to make their vintage hockey cards worth so much money today.
· Rarities. The story behind rare card sets like the Dad’s Cookies set, Quaker Oats WHA set, 1960’s Coca-Cola cards, etc.
· Non-NHL cards. North American minors and European cards.
...and much more!
Another feature of Vintage Hockey Cards Report is the on-going database of actually winning bids of vintage cards on eBay. Currently, the sold cards are listed under the ‘Price Guide’ page on the site, in order of winning bid price. Soon, there will be an option to download a file so that the user can sort the cards by any category they wish.
Brought to you by the same hockey writers that constantly update OHLAlumniCentral.com, you can expect new and exciting articles at the site on a regular basis. In time, special offers will come available for buyers on eBay, including shipping discounts on eBay auctions by the operators of VHCR.com.
Another subject the site will cover is what exactly is behind the grading of hockey cards. Future articles will discuss the grading scale of poor to mint and the PSA grading numbers.
If you’re a collector of vintage hockey cards, this website is a must for you to check-out, bookmark and subscribe to.
