JS Sportscards and Unisquare

For our less expensive cards, we will be utilizing www.jssportscards.com (Primarily) and Unisquare (secondary) for sales.  Unisquare seems to be treating sellers and buyers right, reducing the costs for each.  If they can attract buyers, they stand a good chance of being successful.  We will let you know more as time goes on.

The Auctions and Bulk Sales on www.jssportscards.com are going well.  We just need more time to get more Bulk Sales listed for minor league cards.

Ebay's Lack of Respect For JS Sportscards and Other Sellers means Reduced Listings and Reduced Sales - DSR, Feedback, Increased Fees, Photographs - where does it stop?

Well, the ridiculous again becomes prevalent and the Ebay  rule.  Feedback, DSR's, Increased Fees, Reduced Customer Service, now Picture Size.

Pictures must be more than 500 pixels on a side.

Pictures larger that 7 MB are prohibited.

So what is important - small pictures or large pictures.  Beats me and a lot of others don't understand either.  We don't have the time to review over 3000 pictures and determine if they are compliant or not.

If we could quit working the ever-changing Ebay issues on present listings, we could list more items for sale.  Isn't that what everybody wants, more listings, more sales? Well, apparently not, Ebay must have too many listings and Amazon must really be hopeful that more business will gravitate to them.  Some large auction houses started listing with Ebay but couldn't stand the frequent Ebay changes.  They believe in developing their own system and it works fine for them,  changes that only they design and implement.

We will be transferring much of our inventory to www.jssportscards.com and will be spending the fees that were paid to Ebay in the past, to promote the website. We will better serve our customers in this way.

We will use SEO techniques, Appropriate Advertising, and Email lists with regular notices to grow our business.  

If you would like to be on our email list, please let us know at jssportscards@gmail.com.  We will be glad to work with you.

Miguel Cabrera

Miguel was the top hitter in 2012 and is giving it a good run in the early part of 2013.  We recently found some 2001 Midwest League Top Prospect sets - this might be his rookie card but do your own research on that.  If you have questions, please direct them to jssportscards@gmail.com


Mike Trout

Mike Trout is hot right now - his batting average is currently around the .300 level and he's running the bases aggressively.  Could be another super year - hopefully no sophomore jinx.

We have ordered 2010 Midwest League Top Prospect, 2011 Texas League Top Prospect, and 2012 Pacific Coast League Top Prospects sets.

In addition we still have a few 2011 Arkansas Travelers cards left but they are rapidly disappearing

Please direct questions to jssportscards@gmail.com

Evan Gattis

Evan Gattis, Braves catcher, is one of the hottest "rookie" or prospect cards.  We now have only 2010 Danville cards, having temporarily sold out of the others.

We do expect 2011 Rome Braves cards soon.

Please contact us at jssportscards@gmail.com to determine the current availability of Evan Gattis cards.

The 2010 Danville set includes other future stars such as Andrelton Simmons.
