Lots on Sportlots-Out for 5 Days due to illness

I apologize, I have had pnemonia for the last week or so, which has caused a couple of lots to be delayed in shipment. I had another person ship most of them, but unfortunately he did not know the location of all the items. I am just now able to get up and out of bed & wanted to let all know that any items delayed will go out ASAP tomorrow! AND once again I sincerely apologize.

We DO NOT conduct business in this way, as you know if you are an existing customer, and want to earn the business from our new customers, as well as continue the great relationships we have with our current customers. Please accept our apologies.

Also, to those that this has effected we will be offering a HUGE discount on next direct order. Please feel free to contact us with any type of item you are looking for and we will give you an offer you can't refuse!!

How to find Information on sports cards & memorabilia items on Sportlots

Often in description of our sports cards, sports collectibles and/or sports memorabilia we have listed in sportlots auctions we refer the buyer to go to Our Sportlots blog homepage for more information on the sports related item because of the limited characters sellers can use in the item description. Since html, which is a way you can place clickable links into a page, is not allowed, we just put the sportlots auctions & sports cards homepage link for the same reason: legnth restrictions-ex. the longer the link we type out, the more characters it takes up in the
Sportlots auctions
description.

The only problem with this is that our sportslots "homepage" is always changing with every post we make about sports auction lots, sportlots information, sports memorabilia for sale, or whatever the post may be. In most cases our most recent post will be the first post you will see on our Sportlots homepage, and you may be looking for a post on our baseball player lots, lots of autographed and/or game used baseball cards, single sports cards, wax boxes, or whatever the lot up for auction on sportlots or for sale as a fixed price may be. Fortunately, on the side of the page you have the option to choose "labels", which is basically the same as categories that the post falls in.

So, all you have to do is to look to the side of the page and click on the Items Listed link and it will bring up all posts with that label, which will contain the most recent posts first. These labels are also listed at the end of each post, but only if the post falls into that label, or category. Hopefully, as sportlots continues to grow it will allow more room for the description and the ability to place links into the description, but currently we would rather sportlots keep their format the same versus doing what Ebay has done and increase fees over and over.

Cheaper & Better Alternative To Ebay For Selling Sports Cards & Memorabilia

One of Best Alternatives to Ebay for Selling Sports Cards & Collectibles
Better Service and MUCH cheaper fees than Ebay
Save up to 85% or even more on FEES compared to Ebay

One reason we believe
Sportlots
is one of the best alternatives to ebay for selling sports cards and sports memorabilia, because you are able to save a ton of money on fees, not only do you save money by not having a final value fee, which sportlots does not charge on auctions, & listing fee, plus any additional features you may use on Ebay such as the featured auction function, which is around $20 or maybe higher now versus $1 on sportlots. AND you also save on the outreagous paypal fees associated with ebay because you are paid for each auction lot individually versus one payment from sportlots & the buyer payments are split between all the sellers a person buys from. And it is usually at least 2 or 3 different sellers if not more, so rather than the automatic 30 cents (may be higher now also) per payment plus the % of amount, you split both the 30 cents and the % with other sellers. So if there are 6 sellers you automatically take the initial 30 cents down to just 5 cents and are overall only paying about 15% of the amount you pay each time you make a sale via ebay. To put it into perspective, for ever $100 from paypal payments $15 to $50 on sportlots sales!! This alone enables us, and other sellers, to not only pass the savings on to the buyer, but also put sports cards with lower values up for auctions, which is just about impossible on Ebay without losing money!

Start buying and selling your cards today AND SAVE MONEY BOTH WAYS! Buyers save by sellers passing on the huge savings from the lower fees & buyers save, or make more, money by not incurring or drastically reducing the HIGH fees associated with Ebay & Paypal.
