I got email about http://www.sportscardsauction.com . They must have just gone live. not much happening yet but it looks nice.

I checked into the site, but found that I didn't care for the fees. Unless they are intending to cater only to the high-end sports cards sellers it would seem that their fees are way too high ... especially for a new site. I'm not sure how listing/insertion and FVF's will go over with sellers unless the site is going to compete with a site like Beckett.
Also, when I browsed around in the site I found that things were loading slower than I expected them to be. If slow loading is a problem now, what will it be when traffic starts to hit.

This site loaded very slowly for me. I have wondered for awhile now if a card only site was coming. Niche sites can work if they are properly advertised. Wizardworld which is more a fixed price venue has done very well for people looking to buy comics. They do it the right way by advertising in comic price guides as well as many sports card magazines.
