| eBay - The Worlds Marketplace |
www.ebay.com |
Believe it or not, eBay has some of the lowest prices when it comes to wholesale lots of boxes and singles. If you are thinking about starting a sports card shop you want to use eBay both as a place to sell and buy. Buying from the wholesale lots section is a good place to find deals that are sometime below wholesale prices. |
| The Edgeman |
www.edgeman.com |
| I have used this distributor before and they are very reliable. The website is easy to use and the prices are competitive. I had a real good saleman named Sean and I do believe he is still with the company, ask for him. |
| Global Sales Wholesale |
www.globalsaleswholesale.com |
| This Sports Card Wholesale outlet paid my bills for many years when I was selling full time online. I have not used them since they were bought by a new company a few years back however they do have a large selection. If you are on the west coast you will want to contact this company. |
| Peach State Sports |
www.peachstatesports.com |
| I used this sports card distributor back when they were first starting out. They didn't even have a website and it was all done over the phone. They have grown a bit and are a good source if you are on the east coast. They sometimes get exclusive autographs from Atlanta Braves players and other athletes. |
| Big Apple Card Company |
www.bigapplecard.com |
| Big Apple is not really a sports card wholesaler any longer. However if you were opening up a physical store-front they have lots of other sports related items that would cross-sell well with sports cards. They used to deal with cards but I believe they only have other forms of sports collectibles. |
| DA Card World "Premier" Program |
www.dacardworld.com |
One of the largest online Sports Card Dealers also offers discounted prices to premier members who order quite a bit and/or have a wholesale resale license. Not a true "wholesale" sports card distributor, however prices can be as low or lower than your normal outlet. Check out their eBay store to see the kinds of things you can sell to make money.
|
| Gamus GTS Distribution/Talkin Sports |
www.gtsdistribution.com |
| A lot more than just trading cards here. Toys, hobbies and other games make up this sports card wholesale product line. This is one of the biggest companies as they have grown by buying up smaller outlets. You will find that you can make money on more than just cards if you explore their product line. A must if you are on the west coast. |
| PGH Sports Wholesale |
www.pghsportswholesale.com |
I have bought through this company a few times and have always had excellent service. Prices are about what you will see around the internet for the most part but its a solid choice if you are in the PA area. Check out the PGHSportsWholesale eBay store to see the kinds of items you can sell.
|
| The Topps Company |
www.topps.com |
Buying directly from the trading card companies themselves is not something I ever tried. More than likely you will need to make a large financial commitment in order to deal with Topps. Not a bad option if you know what your sales are going to be like, but you're better off finding a smaller outlet to buy your cards wholesale until you grow to a large company.
|
| Upper Deck Direct |
www.upperdeck.com |
| Upper Deck is much like Topps in that you must be buying at large quantities in order to be eligible to buy directly from Upper Deck. I know they have restrictions on selling their product online so really this is only an option if you plan to open a popular sports card store. |
| Blowout Cards |
www.blowoutcards.com |
| Another company that I have used myself. Very quick and prices are consitantly low and they will price match any other major retailer. Not the best option if you are looking to turn around and sell on eBay because this in not a "true" wholesaler and you will be competing directly with Blowout Cards who also sell on eBay. Good place if you have a store or want to get the lowest prices for boxes online. |
Magazine Exchange
|
www.magazine-exchange.com |
| A great option for both non-sports and traditional sports cards from all the top card makers. You will need a state re-sale ID to order from this company directly. The prices are going to be similar to the distributors above. I have never worked with this company directly, however they update the website on a regular basis so its worth giving them a shot. |

Buying Sports Cards Wholesale requires a state re-seller ID or Permit in most cases. Visit your States Tax Board to find out the steps needed to obtain this. Keep in mind this is a competitive business and prices are going to be similar across the board for the most part. Find a distributor that gives you the best price and the best service and you can make money. The better relationship you have with your sales team, the better deals they may be able to offer you down the road.
