reputable sellers

[Billyhoyle]

Who do you guys buy boxes from?

www.ocsportscards.com <-- Bruce is the owner. Can get in earlier boxes, just email him for prices. Charges exact shipping which is a plus. Can pay via PayPal. Very fast and reliable and well protected (and did i mention FAST) shipping via USPS. Will insure for a few extra bucks.

www.dacw.com <-- prices for shipping can be high, but they are reliable and box them up well.

I buy most of mine from Sportscard Central - www.sccentral.com
They are really good and have pulled some pretty good cards.

i reccomend Dacardworld, i buy my boxes from there. As Graham said there shipping prices are a little high but you know you are getting untouched boxes and that.

I buy from www.southernhemispherecards.com.au Sonny is a member is on here and ive pulled some awesome stuff. Hes a great bloke to deal with.

im sure sonny's a great bloke and everything, but any boxes bought from australia are going to be marked up quite a bit from the US prices. The cheapest, most reputable place for boxes is any one of the above 3 US sites.

try putting an '.au' on the end. his prices are expensive compared to US. for example, 05/06 reflections from sccentral: $77 US=$102AU, SHC charge $165AU.

its not his fault though, if he tried to compete with US prices he couldnt turn a profit and hed be out of business. sucks, but thats the way it is.

I dont mind paying a bit extra to get the boxes delivered in a day and they are not searched or dodgey like alot of boxes bought around here. Look at some of the crap that has been pulled on these boards over the last few months with jerseys missing and autos missing. If your willing to pay a little bit more atleast youve got a chance to pull something. Alot of boxes from ebay are crap. Just my thoughts.

All the dodgy boxes were from US ebay sellers. i dare u to find anyone who has gotten a resealed box from any of the above 3 US sellers (scc, dcw,ocsc). and 30-40% markup is not "a bit more". the majority of ebay boxes are fine, all boxes from edge8088 and allstar cards are 100% legit as far as i know, and ive never gotten a dodgy box from any us ebay sellers.

anyway, its obvious your doing some free advertising for your mate, and thats cool, but im just telling it the way it is

Im not doing free advertising i was just saying hes one of the cheapest ive dealt with in Australia and ive had no problems at all. And you always know that your getting your box straight away.

I don't log in for a day and I miss all the action

Are we talking about reputable or cheapest sellers? There is a big difference!

This thread should probably be a sticky, broken down into Aussie & US sellers with reputable and cheapest.

I know I've only been on these boards for 5 mins, but I have already seen a couple of posts:

You're right JZA, my reflections price is what is was worth when it first came out in November. I need to change alot of the site prices cause most are out of date, so I should really do it.

However, if anyone is SERIOUS about purchasing a box, they normally email me and say such and such is selling it for this much etc etc. Most times people agree to do a card trade + cash, and I've done it with alot of people from this forum.

Well that's all folks! :smt023

are the prices for boxers on the usa sites the same as you would pay for if you where to walk into a shop in the usa and buy a box, as my sister will be in the usa soon and i am thinking i might get her to send me a box over.

remember were paying shipping as well, so of course any boxes bought from a shop are going to be cheaper
