Selling Guide
Where to Sell
eBay is the best platform to reach a global audience, especially Japanese buyers. Alternatively, Dodgers-specific Facebook buy/sell/trade groups.
Selling Tips
Highlight 'Low Numbered' and 'SSP' in the title. Take high-resolution photos outside of the top-loader (but keep in the penny sleeve) to show the refractor shine. Use a bubble mailer with tracking; do not use a plain white envelope for a serial-numbered card.
