Trading Tip Stay organized. Possibly the worst thing you could do trading online is to lose track of all your trades. There no worse feeling than trading the same card twice. When you make a trade, write it down. Mark it off you wantlist if you keep one. If you plan on starting a website that lists your traders, do your best to keep it update. Trading online eats up a lot of time. Being disorganized will take up even more in the long run. - tip from www.tradercracks.com
Frequently Asked Question How do I know that the piece is authentic? Here at Upper Deck, we have a strict policy in purchasing game used equipment. Our sources for purchasing these items will either be directly from the player, directly from the team or from secondary market vendor that has a reputation for having authentic game used equipment. Each game used item that we purchase from these sources comes with a Certificate of Authenticity to ensure 100% authenticity for that item.
Most items used are game worn, while some are from practice or from league sponsored photo shoots. The authentication copy printed on the back of the card should indicate the nature of the item used on the front.

Glossary Term Insert ratio - These numbers are associated with cards that are not commonly available within the packs of cards. The ratio indicates what the odds are of finding such a card within packs. This is generally communicated on the packaging of a product with a ratio after a specific name, such as “Top Hitters 1:24,” which would indicate that the subset or insert set called Top Hitters is short printed (vs. the rest of the set) and will fall at an approximate ratio of 1 in every 24 packs. Sometimes, just the total number of cards produced for a specific short printed card is announced, as these cards are generally sequentially numbered and no approximate ratios are available at that time.
