Editorial Reviews

Review

Baseball-card collecting is estimated to be a billion-dollar hobby. Each passing year offers more stories of the spreading interest in collecting among savvy investors as well as young entrepreneurs. Green and Pearlman have written an easy-to-read guide to all aspects of collecting. While the subject has been covered by several other books, this is a nice volume to give as a gift or add to a serious collector's library. -- From Independent Publisher

5.0 out of 5 stars Card Strategies & How to make money off cards!!, October 3, 2000
By 
Wendy Bircher (Redmond, WA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Making Money with Baseball Cards: A Handbook of Insider Secrets and Strategies (Paperback)
The moment I got this book, I knew I got what I paid for! It has great strategies and explains good cards, and cards to stay away from. Donn Pearlman and Paul Green do a great job of telling the reader and sharing with the reader the experiences they both have had with dealing with cards. You could tell by the context and how well written it was, that both Pearlman, and Green know tons about cards, and do a great job of giving strategies to the readers and how and what to do to make your cards and their value rise! This book was enjoyed thoroughly by me, and if bought, I'm sure it will be by you too!

3.0 out of 5 stars A word from one of the authors, February 10, 2005
This review is from: Making Money with Baseball Cards: A Handbook of Insider Secrets and Strategies (Paperback)
Hello, I'm Donn Pearlman, and I happily co-wrote "Making Money With Baseball Cards" with Paul Green. At the time this book was published, way-way back in the late 1980's, it was precedent-setting and gave excellent "insiders' tips" about buying and selling sports cards.

However, Paul and I have not done an update, and frankly, much of this book is outdated: prices, grading services, online auctions, and so on. Still, there is a basic emphasis in the book that remains the same today: Be a COLLECTOR, or at the least, a collector-investor. Appreciate the sports cards first and foremost for their historic value, and maybe, in time, they'll appreciate in financial value as well.

Enjoy collecting!

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Making Money with Baseball Cards: A Handbook of Insider Secrets and Strategies (Paperback)
I bought this book through you used.

The book was outdated and not very useful. Nothing about selling online etc. It was too old. Wish I had not bought it.
