[POD] 11 Dirty Tricks eBay Sellers Use That We Hate! - Ep. 1.35

Beware of bad sports card dealers on eBay, as they try to sell you cards you don't want at a price you don't want!

Each “Happy Hobby Sports Card Podcast” pack tries to help sports card collectors working with limited budgets – like me!

Sports card sellers on eBay are always trying to squeeze every penny out of a card they’re selling, which is difficult when all of us buyers are trying to hold onto every single penny, when we’re buying cards!

In this episode, which is also a video on my YouTube channel, I share with you close to one dozen tricks that some nefarious eBay sellers try to pull on unsuspecting sports card collectors!

I also share another baseball card trivia question, in case you want to win yourself a free 1979 Topps Willie Stargell baseball card!

Patrick Imhoff shares another smart nugget about what he would change if he became CEO of Fanatics in 2026, when they unify all three sports card licenses.

And finally, we look at another one of those “Cards That Makes Us Happy!” This time, it’s from a card from not too long ago — the 2016 Topps Mike Trout card!

"Happy Hobby Sports Cards" Podcast!
Happy Hobby! We talk about sports card collecting hoping to help collectors working with a limited budget. With a positive, family friendly mindset, we discuss hobby news and recent releases, while also looking back and talking about vintage cards and players from decades past. It's like opening a pack of cards with 11 with different sports card subjects!
This podcast is essentially the read-out-loud version of the "Happy Hobby Newsletter," published every other Thursday on Substack.
I’m David Gonos, former Fantasy Sports columnist at CBS Sports, Sports Illustrated and The Athletic. In 2021, I was inducted into the Fantasy Sports Writers Hall of Fame. (No, really, that exists!) I’m also a sports card collector working with a limited budget, so I create content based around just that!
I got my YouTube channel going in 2021, and I’ve been posting two or three videos up each week ever since. It’s a fun, free, festive spot to talk about cards, collecting and … cards. I don’t take myself too seriously, so I beg that you don’t take me seriously either.
We also do a ton of giveaways to subscribers!
