Why do prices change on the website?

Due to the nature of sports collectibles trade, the popularity of players and teams can change almost daily based on their on and off-field performances, and this in turn may affect the supply and demand of certain products.
Example: You purchase a Marc Murphy Draft Pick Rookie Signature card for $100 today, and next day he is named the AFL Rising Star for that round or season, and the same card on the website has been changed to $125.

With older cards, its difficult to often judge the condition based on scans, what should I do if i am considering purchasing the card?

We have recently introduced a new, simple grading system guide from Grade 5 Pristine/Mint to a 1 Poor for older cards, which can be applied to Scanlens cards from 1963-1987, and cigarette cards.

We have also increased the size of the scans of each card to assist collectors when attempting to judge the condition of the cards themselves, especially when viewing important factors such as corners, edging and centering.

If you have further enquiries, do not hesitate to phone and ask for further details regarding the product you are interested in.
