extensive trade
card category (over 100 000 items) including an Australian Football

section but it has a nifty feature which enables you to shop by image

| I am attempting to monitor the internet auction
card scene and advise of useful links. Postcard collectors are well
served. Trade card collectors are also well catered to by eBay and
Yahoo and the former has quite large listings of cigarette cards.
eBay
Australia was launched on 15th October 1999 (but with less categories
than the USA site) and is heralding a new era in on-line trading of Australian
material as more and more Australian dealers and collectors get on-line.
Other Australian internet auction sites still do not list many cards and
eBay remains the preferred on-line auction. eBay
New Zealand also has relevant card sections. |
