Vintage Cardback advice

[robpmarsh]

Hi all,

As I'm only 4 loose figures away from completing my set I was thinking of Cardbacks as my next collecting task.

Looking at eBay it looks like a minefield of repros and fakes.

Is there anyone who comes recommended on the forum for these?

Initial plan is to get the Bounty Hunters and then move on from there until I have a complete set.

Will probably steer clear of proof cards for now bit you never know if one isn't too expensive!

Little to no repros in the world of cardback collecting. Any repros are easy to spit as they have no card rip from the bubble coming off.

Cardbacks are one of the safest areas of vintage collecting. Repro's dead easy to spot and sellers know this so 99% state custom or repro.

E-bay is a safe bet for buying these - blimey did I just say that :lol:
