What's the Difference Between a Trading Card and an Auction?

It's very similar to what garrywee is doing with the fantasy football stuff, or with the trading cards. Kind of knowing which teams will perform next season, based on that, you can make your investments. So i'm kind of more on the observing side for the superer and the unique cards er. There are some prices, but i don't think it's ... noteworthy compared to what you can really make or earn with the cards or the players themselves.
