Trading Tip
Mail securely.
Putting a card in a penny sleeve and throwing it in a floppy envelope is not secure. You might laugh, but it's happened to me more than once. Needless to say, that was the last time I traded with them. On the other extreme, don't wrap cards so tightly in tape that they can't be accessed without damaging. You should leave some breathing room to let the cards out. You common sense when you send card. You don't need to wrap two common cards in a refrigerator box to make sure they arrive safely. For a couple of cards I put them in a top loader with a piece of Scotch tape across the top so they don't get out. I also fold a small tab on the edge of the tape so that it peels off easily.

Many people have different methods, which is great. Just make sure when you're getting cards ready to go that they're secure and stiff. If the trade involves some more valuable cards, bubble mailers and insurance is recommended. - tip from www.tradercracks.com


Frequently Asked Question
What is the most valuable trading card in the world?
The most valuable trading card in the world is the Honus Wagner T-206 tobacco trading card issued in the early 1900s. Reportedly, Wagner did not want children to have to collect his cards through an association with tobacco products, so he demanded that he be pulled from distribution. Through this “short printing” and the many years that have passed (and the countless number of cards lost or damaged), the Wagner card has become one of the most rare and desirable in baseball card history. This card was originally sold at a Sotheby's auction for $451,000, purchased by Wayne Gretzky and Bruce McNall. The card has since traded hands a few times, and has since been reported to have been privately sold for well over one million dollars. It is the only known T-206 card in the world of Wagner to be in this type of condition. Other T-206 cards of Wagner have not even come close to the price tag that this card has sold for due to their condition. Today, the card remains with a private collector.
