    Willie O'Ree signed 8x10 photo

    I have several 8 x 10s signed by Willie O'Ree, who's from Fredericton (where I've lived since 1988). I interviewed him many times when I was sports editor of the city's daily newspaper. Always a class act.

    Duty-free Imports are ending, and Canada Post shipments will be impacted

    I got this message yesterday from eBay. Discouraging, as I've had thousands of successful transactions with U.S. collectors on eBay and plenty on HI too. The US has announced that the de minimis exemption for imports (the threshold below which imported goods won’t need to be...

    FCG Grading?

    Has anyone had experience dealing with Forensic Card Grading (FCG?) I can ship from New Brunswick to Ontario, where the cards are then sent to Texas with a one-month turnaround. The cost is $28 Canadian per card, which seems reasonable.

    SP Authentic scarce or...?

    My local hobby shop owner preordered two cases of 2019-20 SP Authentic Hockey. One person ordered a case, and it didn't take the owner long to sell the remaining boxes at $185 Canadian, taxes included.

    The Hockey News back issues

    I'm wondering if the HI community can help me out. I sent the email below to Ab D. cards last month (two email addresses listed), but haven't heard back. Perhaps, they're not interested but usually you would get a courtesy "No thanks" email back. I'm also wondering if they're still open (in...
