Affiliate disclosure
This site contains affiliate links to vendors including (but not limited to) the eBay Partner Network and other sports-card marketplaces. When you click an affiliate link and make a purchase, we may receive a commission from the vendor at no additional cost to you.
How to identify affiliate links
We use the standard rel="sponsored" attribute on affiliate links. This is the same convention search engines and browsers use to identify commercial partnerships.
How commissions work
- eBay Partner Network: We may earn a percentage of buyer activity for purchases made within their session after clicking our link.
- Other affiliate programs: We may participate in additional programs from time to time (PWCC, Goldin, Heritage, COMC, MySlabs, and similar). All links to vendor sites should be assumed affiliate unless explicitly noted otherwise.
Your purchase price is unchanged
Affiliate commissions are paid by the vendor, not by you. Clicking our affiliate link versus going directly to eBay or any other marketplace has no effect on the price you pay or the product you receive.
Editorial independence
We do not let affiliate relationships influence which cards we recommend. A card paying us 1% commission can — and frequently does — outrank a card paying 6%. Our rankings are based on investment thesis strength, not vendor payouts.
If we recommend a card with no affiliate program, the link still goes to the vendor's direct URL. We do not exclude cards from coverage based on affiliate availability.
Compliance
This disclosure is in compliance with U.S. Federal Trade Commission (FTC) 16 CFR Part 255 guidelines on endorsements and testimonials.
