Collecting Tip
Always look at every table at a show before you buy your first card! How many times have you jumped at the first hot rookie card you saw only to see it half the price only a few tables down. Be Patient and pay attention! - tip from www.cowboycards.com


Frequently Asked Question
What is a subset?
Subsets offer collectors the opportunity to see their favorite players in a different card design and theme from the regular set. This allows for more variety in the cards that most collectors will find most, because they are generally among the most common in packs.

Despite their different designs from the regular base set, these cards, however, are numbered as a part of the regular set, which is what separates them from insert sets, which also have unique designs with more technology added to them (see What is an insert set?).

As products become more complex (and expensive by the pack), then subsets are sometimes short-printed and possibly even sequentially crash numbered (see What is crash numbering?) to make them more rare and difficult for collectors to find.

Short printing is generally done to the Rookie Cards of first year players (or players being featured for the first time in an official, League licensed product), as it brings more value to the Rookies Cards, which are generally considered the most desirable of every player’s cards. For more information on Rookie Cards, please see What are Rookie Cards?.

Super fast shipment and EZ transaction. Thanks.


Glossary Term
Crash numbering (also known as sequential numbering) - Adding numbering to a card front or back to make known the actual print run of a particular set. Cards are numbered in order up to a certain number either by foil stamp, ink jet printing, or by hand using a pen. For example the first card in the run could be "1/100," which would mean it is #1 of 100 total. The second card in the run would then be "2/100." The third card would be "3/100," and the numbering would continue up to "100/100."
