Thread 'Pay it Forward - 2025 Edition'
If you want to participate, simply post in the thread with something that you need for your PC, that you think someone else might have sitting in a box somewhere. This might be a specific player, team, set, or anything else you can think of. Myself, and hopefully some others, will comb through our stacks of cards and, if we find anything from you list, we'll send it to you for free!
Thread 'Welcome to The Arena!'
Hi, and thank you for checking out Sports Card Arena! You've just stumbled upon what will hopefully become the top sports card trading site on the internet. Whether you're looking to just talk sports cards, trade with other collectors, or buy and sell your cards (with no fees or silly restrictions) you've come to the right place! The primary difference between this site and others, from a trader point of view, is the fact that everything that happens here is fully transparent. Each and...

SCA In 2025 and Beyond

  • Announcement date
Welcome to a new year y'all! I thought I'd take a minute to let y'all know how things are progressing with the site, and give y'all an update on where I'd like to see this site go in 2025.

First of all, the site is live! I'm even running our first ever contest, where someone will win a $50 eBay gift card! This will run throughout the entire month of January but there is no fee to enter and if you refer a friend, you can get extra entries into the drawing, with no limit on the number of entries you can get!

As for the site, and what's going on behind the scenes right now, the coding is going great! I'm working on our collector showcase and hope to have that ready for release soon. I'm still working out how I want to display a few things, and how some thing should work. I really don't want to share a timeline for this, just because I've set "deadlines" in the past and that just never seems to work out.

As for the future, I'm hoping to have at least a few more features added to the site for 2025, including another feature that will be completely unique to The Arena, and will also allow members to show off some of the cards in their collection!

Of course none of this is possible without y'all! So, please, register, post, interact, and just have a good time talking cards (or just sports) with other members of the community. This is a fairly laid back site, with few rules and no initial restrictions that you must abide by to trade. It's also completely free to join! So there's really no reason not to register for a free account today, even if it's just to sign up to win that $50 eBay Gift Card!

The Arena and What's Next

  • Announcement date
So last week we released The Arena, our take on a quick-sale marketplace. You can read more about that here.

But what's next for SCA?

I'm really going to be pushing for a family-oriented community here. One where the members truly want to help other collectors with their collections, where flipping and selling isn't the primary interest amongst the members. I realize installing The Arena so early on in the building of this site doesn't necessarily back that up but, as I said before, that was the primary thought heading into this thing, hence the name.

That said, the next few things I'll be working on are completely collector based. I won't give out too much information, except to say that if you're a team collector, player collector, or set collector, our next new feature (while not completely unique) will be geared towards y'all, and helping y'all gain some exposure on your collection so hopefully folks will be able to find you more easily and help you add to your collection.

I know things are moving slowly but, if you read this, I encourage you to keep checking in, at least weekly. I'm moving as quickly as I can to build up this site and, as soon as I get the primary new features built/installed, then I'll start working to get the membership hopping on here.

Thank you for stopping by and, again, please keep checking in!

Well, I figured I should probably introduce myself first, so here goes... My name is Mike. I live in a little podunk town in north Texas. I actually collected cards as a kid and loved it. I'd buy a pack of cards every chance I got, especially if they were basketball cards. I had a ton of cards. Then came high school (girls) and I completely forgot about those cards for years. Then, like a lot of the rest of us, when I decided to collect again I went looking for my cards to find that mom had either given them away or thrown them away. So, I started collecting again sometime in 2008. I was buy/selling cards on eBay until I stumbled upon these trading card forums. I eventually became a member at Trading Card Central (TCC) and made a home there. I chose that site primarily because of what I observed to be the most friendly atmosphere. Today, I still feel like I made the right decision there. I thrived on that site for many years, eventually becoming the Content and Graphics Team Manager. Shortly after that, however, the site's owner went awol. Even today it's been three years since he's logged in to the site. So, in 2012 I decided to branch out on my own and I started Trading Card Zone (TCZ). That went really good until my wife became ill and I closed the site down due to financial issues. Once my wife was well again I opened it back up, and it was rolling again. But then I purchased Sports Card Club (SCC) and merged TCZ into it. That was mistake #1 for TCZ. Mistake #2 for TCZ (now SCC) was I purchased The Bench Trading (The Bench). The Bench ended up taking all of my time away from SCC as I worked to get that site up and running again on some updated software. Once I had that site booming again I made the biggest mistake I've made in business and I sold that site. I almost instantly regretted that decision, making me want to quit the hobby. So, after contemplating just closing SCC down, I decided to give it to a friend I'd met on The Bench. I, again, took some time away from the hobby then decided it was time to jump back in. I contemplated, and went back and forth on just helping them over at SCC or starting my own thing. I, ultimately, decided that I'd rather do my own thing...and here we are...SCA was born. For those who don't know, I collect Tony Parker. I collect any and all Tony Parker cards as long as 1) I don't already have it 2) he's depicted with a Spurs uniform/logo and 3) it's not a multiplayer card. This has been my primary focus since re-starting my collection in 2008 and that remains today. I also collect graded rookie cards of Vince Carter. My goal is to eventually have a copy of all of his rookies graded at least a 9 (PSA or BGS). So, there you go. That's me and my collecting journey in a (large) nutshell. So, go digging through those commons and if you come across any Tony Parker cards (base, inserts, relics, etc), let me know and we'll see if we can work out a deal!
