Affiliate Disclosure — Crazy Uncle's Card Notes

Some pages on Crazy Uncle's Card Notes link to eBay searches. Those links are affiliate links: this site is a member of the eBay Partner Network, and if you follow one of them and make a qualifying purchase, the site may earn a commission. It costs you nothing extra, and the price you pay on eBay is the same.

Where the links appear

Affiliate links sit in a clearly marked box headed with what it lists, for example packing supplies on the submission guide or graded copies of the cards a page discusses. Each box repeats a short disclosure and links back to this page. Card images in the card grids on set and card pages also link to an eBay search for that card, and the grid's caption says so. Articles never contain hidden affiliate links in the running text, and the site carries no advertising.

How picks are chosen

Fit with the page. A box appears only where buying something is part of the page's answer: the sleeves and holders a grader asks for, sealed product of the set a page covers, or graded copies of the cards a page ranks.
Live-listing checks. Before a link goes up we run the search on eBay and confirm it returns real, matching listings from US sellers; searches are re-checked regularly and broadened or removed when they stop returning matches.
Evergreen searches, not single listings. We link to an eBay search rather than one listing, because individual listings end. Check the card number, grade and cert on any listing yourself.
Typical prices, dated. Each pick shows a listing photo and the typical price range of matching US listings (the middle half of the asking prices), with the time it was checked. Listings change by the hour, so check the listing itself before you buy.
Never paid placement. No seller, brand or grader pays to be included or ranked.

What the links are not

A link is not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold any card or sealed product, and nothing on this site is buying, selling or investment advice. Prices quoted in articles are dated snapshots from the sources named on each page. This site does not sell cards, take bids or offer appraisals, and it is not affiliated with eBay, with any grading company or with the former Crazy Uncle Auctions / Uncle's Attic.
