Welcome to theHockeyNet, a web site dedicated to Hockey and Hockey Card Collecting. I have been collecting hockey cards myself for over thirty years now and actively trading and selling cards on the internet for over fiveteen years. My collection has got pretty large and a bit out of hand there for a while and one day I virtually liquidated most of it all on ebay. I still sell cards there from time to time but now prefer to do it here on theHockeyNet.com, so check out many of the hockey cards that I have available on the site for sale and/or trade.

I constantly got requests from people that wanted to sell their large collection of cards to me and have purchased a few of those large lots, but I certainly couldn't buy everybodys cards. So I created theHockeyNet.com classifieds and allow others to sell their cards on my site.

So become a free member of theHockeyNet.com site and start listing your hockey cards for others to buy or trade. You can manage all your cards from your personalized dashboard and best of all there are no fees for posting or selling your cards. All postings are also promoted through out theHockeyNet.com social networks.

Hockey Card Collecting

For those that are not familiar with hockey cards, well maybe this will help...
Hockey card collecting is a generic term for a hobby that involves collecting trading cards with a hockey related subject. They typically consist of pictures of a player with statistics or other information on the reverse. Hockey cards also began to appear early in the 20th century. Cards from this period are commonly known as cigarette cards or tobacco cards, because many were produced by tobacco companies and sold as inserts in packages of cigarettes. During the 1920s, some other food and candy companies started to experiment printing hockey cards to help market their products, but most production was effected by World War I and II.
