Here are the promotions that we will be running at the National.
Free T-Shirt
Current buyers and sellers can get a free CheckOutMyCards.com t-shirt for hanging out at our both for an hour and showing people how they use the site. We will have a nice 22″ touch-screen LCD for playing with the site. Swing by booth #1432 early to sign-up for your slot.
You can buy CheckOutMyCards.com t-shirts for $10. The shirts won’t arrive until Friday morning.
$100 Free Express Processing
First time sellers get a coupon for $100 of free Express Processing that will be good through the end of August.
Extra Store Credit
You can pick up a coupon to get $5, $20, or $100 extra store credit when purchasing $100, $250, or $1,000 store credit by sending us a check or money order through the mail. We are only offering a limited number of each coupon (e.g. 8x$100 & 40x$20), so come by our booth early to ensure that you get a coupon. We will also have stamped envelopes you can pick up at the show. The coupons will be good through the end of the month.
$0.20 Priority Processing
You can drop cards off and get $0.20 priority processing with a 3 week guarantee from the drop-off date. There will be no additional $3 batch fee per 500 cards, and it is only $5 to have us ship as many cards as you want to drop off.
Drop-Off for Processing
You can drop cards off at booth #1432, and we will ship them for you. Processing fees are the same as stated on the website except for the $0.20 Priority Processing promo mentioned above. For everything other than Express Processing, there will be an extra shipping fee to have us ship the cards for you.

We are about 75,000 cards away from adding item #1,000,000 to the site. With our current rate of a little more than 20,000 cards per week, that means we will be posting item #1,000,000 this month.
I will deposit $100 store credit in whichever account item #1,000,000 goes into.
I talked to my employees about this to make sure that we don’t offer any favoritism as we get closer to this number. We will just process cards as we normally do. Anyone could win the $100. It could be someone who sent us cards months ago with our budget processing service, it could be someone who sent us stuff a few weeks ago with our standard service, it could be someone who just sent us priority items, or it could even be someone who sends us cards in the next couple weeks with our express service.
If you want to increase your chances of winning the $100, I would recommend using our express processing service in the next two weeks.
Express Processing Special
For anything postmarked in June, we will offer free express processing for the following items.
Limit 1,000 cards per account. Offer not valid for graded or jumbo cards. If this promotion is too popular it may take more than 1 week for these items to appear online, but we will get to them as a soon as we can.
To receive the free express processing, you must label the batch that is eligible for the promotion with the phrase “FREE EXPRESS PROMO”.
If you haven’t used our service to sell your cards yet, now is a great time to try it out. Here are the instructions for how to ship to us.
