Suggestion for the "Hobby Resources" section: a short guide to buying online. As someone just getting back into collecting after a years-long absence, it would be nice to have a short primer on the ins and outs of buying online in 2012. The major retailers (Blowout, Dave & Adam's, etc.), the different kinds of boxes (hobby v. jumbo v. retail), the secondary markets (eBay, COMC), and anything else I've missed. I'd be happy to draft it myself, but I've only been doing this for a few weeks, so I wouldn't want to post it without having a more experienced collector review it for accuracy.
