Trading Tip Don't jump to conclusions. Sometimes cards get lost in the mail. Human error can't stop it. If your cards don't show up, it doesn't necessarily mean you've been ripped off. Contact the person you traded with to see if they had any delays in shipping. Quite often there is a reasonable explanation. A couple years back I sent some cards that never arrived. The person I was trading with, a repeat trader I might add, started threatening to press charges and blackballing my name on all kinds of trading boards. I offered to return his cards, no questions asked. I also suggested he picked a new batch of cards. I even emailed every single person I had traded with in the past that I still had email addresses for to see if I mistakenly sent them the cards. After several more daily threats, he picked another batch of cards worth $43, the exact value of the original deal. When I sent the cards I included a note apologizing for the inconvenience. It was nobody's fault, just a post office mix up. I just felt it was best to be polite. Ten days later he sent me a message saying he got the cards and that I wasn't a thief after all. The damage was done. Name-calling and threats are impossible to take back. - tip from www.tradercracks.com |

Frequently Asked Question What is a decoy card? Unfortunately, there are sometimes aspects of the trading card industry that make it seem far from being a hobby for kids. Considering that some cards randomly inserted into packs are very rare or contain highly desirable elements on them (like Game Worn Jerseys or Authentic Autographs), there are some people out there who want to cheat the system and guarantee that the packs they purchase have such cards in their packs. These people conduct what is known as pack searching. They feel the contents of packs through the foil wrapper, use scales to weigh the packs for the slightest weight disparities, and use a number of dishonest tricks to cheat unknowing collectors and consumers by unfairly taking away the chances of finding the highly sought after cards. While the methods of cheaters are constantly changing with the times, the trading card manufacturers must now resort to adding decoy cards into packs that trick the dishonest from searching packs, as either every pack or several packs within the box contain a card that feels like it could be a special card worth searching a pack for. |

Glossary Term Insert ratio - These numbers are associated with cards that are not commonly available within the packs of cards. The ratio indicates what the odds are of finding such a card within packs. This is generally communicated on the packaging of a product with a ratio after a specific name, such as “Top Hitters 1:24,” which would indicate that the subset or insert set called Top Hitters is short printed (vs. the rest of the set) and will fall at an approximate ratio of 1 in every 24 packs. Sometimes, just the total number of cards produced for a specific short printed card is announced, as these cards are generally sequentially numbered and no approximate ratios are available at that time. |
