I have been doing this for years. I've sent many 1000s of packets like this. I never lost one. It's easy and it has a 100% success rate. Also, you don't get high customs fees, if any at all! I know how to send your packet by insured registered mail without you having to pay to receive it.

So, however you pay, the cards are sent by international registered mail, from France (100% success rate, 30 years sending, no losses ever). It takes around about 3 weeks to USA; up to 4 weeks to Australia, up to 2 weeks to GB/UK/Europe.

2. MORE THAN 12% off... more than 20% off? It may be possible for very large orders

Please remember, if you ask for heavier discounts, on very large orders, of more than 20% off, for cash, it has to be a great deal for me (in the thousands) or else I am liable to say no and even to raise prices after unsuccessful haggling. I do this to pay me myself for my time lost on many of these 'journeys'. Time is worth more than money and all cards will sell, sooner or later, anyway; and values (and prices) are always upwards for such rare vintage cards.

I treat respect with respect. I won't mess you around and I won't rip you off. 30+ years experience, well-known collector and seller of spare cards

3. I CAN SEND ANYWHERE WHEN

you pay cash or silver I can send anywhere, even to unconfirmed addresses and to P.O. boxes - as long as there are no postal sanctions in place.

4 PRICES

Prices showing "£0.00" are on sold cards - someone else got there first. 

5. QUANTITY -  only 1 of each card is available. The EKM quantity button is the platform's not mine. So, only 1 item available, no multiples, each and every card is a single item. 

6. NO E-CHEQUESNo "Echeques"! Echeques (typically Paypal E-cheques / E-checks) come with unconfirmed addresses and they are a disaster for sellers, 2 months to clear then all the risk so I no longer take Echeques, not even Paypal Echecks.You can send me cash, I take USD, GBP, EUROS, Yen and RU Rubles (to be agreed by Email, first) or you can send .999 silver coins, to be agreed by Email. Or, you can pay using commercial Paypal on site, at 100% full cost, plus postage s/h at full cost. Or, you can  SAVE 12% and get FREE insured registered s/h using  "friends & family"  off site - just ask me.

7. THE GOLDEN RULE is... 

...the GOLDEN RULE is ALL CARDS ARE "SOLD AS SEEN". This means you get what you see.

The seller of these antique & vintage, rare football soccer cards is the creator of the 1990s journal, "Football Card Collector Magazine", and writer of 2019's runner-up to 'Best British Sports Book 2020' award; and 2021's "An A-Z of Sporting Collectibles" book. With this background and history he is well-known and trusted. Most of the cards here are spares from the seller's own life-long collection, put together over 5 decades. Photos show backs & fronts of cards. Details below the photos describe the cards but "images rule". This means the image is what you get. So, all cards are SOLD AS SEEN. Most cards on this website are 1-off exemplars. When they are sold they are gone forever.
