OC at National Convention 2004, Cleveland, OH Old Cardboard will make our first ever appearance at the National Convention 2004 in Cleveland this July. We hope that you are able to stop by for a chat at booth number 2048. We will be demonstrating the various new sections of the website. We are also planning to produce hard-copy prints of type galleries for the more important pre-1950 card groups (N-cards, T-cards, E-cards, etc.) and will have these prints available for sale at the booth. We look forward to meeting you there. ------------------------------------------------------------ 2. New! database driven eBay sellers list posted on Old Cardboard A popular oldcardboard.com feature was launched last month called the eBay Sellers List. While it only encompasses eBay sellers auctions, it was the beginning of a who's who selling vintage cards on eBay. The list has been narrowed to focus on the "Top 50" sellers of early baseball cards on eBay. For each seller, the list includes eBay feedback ratings, amount of vintage material sold, shipping costs, direct links to each seller's current eBay auctions, payment details, and more. It is now database driven and will be updated on a regular basis. We hope that it will bring general awareness to the top sellers and provide a useful buyer's guide for eBay bidders. The Ebay Sellers List can be viewed at: https://www.oldcardboard.com/ref/ebay-sellers/ebay-sellers.asp ------------------------------------------------------------- 3. Overview of current Sponsors We thought we'd give special mention and brief introduction to our current sponsors. Without you we would not be where we are today! Currently OC has ten sponsors.
