Black Friday Sneak Peak

The full details of the Black Friday special won’t be revealed until Thanksgiving day, but you will want to be ready to buy, sell, and ship a lot of cards that weekend.

At last… I found the needle in the haystack. Wow, what a pain. We got our new email server all configured about 10 days ago, and it seemed to be working great for just about everyone. However, no one from with an aol.com email address was getting our emails.

After many many hours of searching I finally traced down what the issue was. This forum post from tek-tips.com was very helpful.

Quick Summary
AOL required reverse DNS to be configured for the IP address that is sending the email messages.

Full Details
This had all been configured correctly with our old email server, but when we migrated the the new email server, I had to change some of our firewall settings. The email server happens to accept request from a couple different IP addresses. So it was successfully receiving emails that were routed through mx1.checkoutmycards.com, but when it was sending emails it happen to go out through a different IP address.

I realized this by doing a “What is my IP” search and seeing that it didn’t match mx1.checkoutmycards.com. All I had to do was change one firewall setting so that outgoing emails got sent through the same IP address as the one that had reverse DNS configured.

I even created an @aol.com email address just to test the scenario and make sure things worked. Hopefully all of you at aol.com can now receive our emails.

I just noticed that Drtcards passed jseau and crossed the $100,000 mark.

Here are a few cards Drtcards has for sale.

Here is a story about David Vaughn. Long fall from riches to rags for ex-NBA player Vaughn

Barry from London, Ontario worked together with my brother Toby to launch a new site that combines game data with sports cards. The site is cleaverly named ScoreboardEh.com.

Here is a quick overview of the site’s concept.

ScoreboardEh is designed to highlight the day to day stars of the game and their cards. Each morning I’ll reveal the contents of one pack of cards. I’ll write about the cards I find and the players they feature. I’ll also write about the other cards of the same players that I have available in my ScoreboardEh store at CheckOutMyCards.com.

Here are a few of the cards for sale from ScoreboardEh.

I had to do this blog post quick because it is probably just a matter of hours before jseau dips below $100,000 again. With the price and selection that jseau offers, his cards have been flying off the site.

jseau has sold more book value worth of cards than any other seller. Here are the top sellers based on book value sold. He has sold nearly twice as many cards as the next highest seller. Back in August jseau became the first seller to surpass $100,000 in book value sold.

Here are some of the cards he has for sale. You better act quickly because they are sure to sell out soon.

Here are the 2009 Q3 stats.

We are extremely pleased with the growth. We are already starting to max out our warehouse and need to start planning for a move into a larger space.

mocards just became the #2 seller on the top sellers list.

mocards is also the first seller from outside of Washington state to pass up LowPriceCards. He did this in less than a year. mocards put his first cards up for sale on October 27th of last year. All of his cards have been mailed to us.
