Dean’s Cards Introduces Advanced Search

By Dean Hanley
Founder and Owner, Dean’s Cards

Since I began Dean's Cards in 2001, my goal has always been to provide fellow collectors with a simple, cost effective and enjoyable way to build their collections. That’s why I’m proud to introduce a new advanced website search feature that will make it even easier for you to find the cards you need for your collection.

We are completing a project to assign “Specialty Codes” to our inventory of more than 1.5 million cards. So you can now go to the Search Box on the top of every page of our site and search for specific types of cards for all sports by their Specialty Code. (Please note that the Specialty Code project is ongoing so you may see some cards that have not been coded yet.)

The video below shows you the steps to follow to search for the following:
-- Hank Aaron Rookie Card (Code -- RK)
-- Willie Mays Multi-Player card (Code -- MP)


We have added the following Specialty Codes to make searching through our inventory even easier:
CL – Checklist Card
CO – Coaches Card
IA – In Action Card
DP – Double Print Card
HL – Highlights Card
HOF – Hall of Fame Card
LG – League Leaders Card
MG  –  Managers
MP – Multi-Player Card
PF  –  Playoffs
RB –  Record Breakers
RK – Rookie Card
SP – Short Print Card
TM – Team Card
WS – World Series Card

As you search for cards on our site, you will see actual images of the cards in our inventory. When you click on the images, you will see enlarged scans of the front and back of each card. This feature allows you to inspect and compare the condition of each card before you make your purchase.

Dean's Cards has made this continual investment in advanced technology because we want to take the guesswork out of your purchase. When you buy a vintage card from Dean's Cards, "What you see is what you get!"
