Hello. My name is Craig. This is a site that my friend Justin and I made because we're both huge 80's cartoon fans. As you might know,although it might be fairly easy to find allot of those awesome 80's cartoons it's not as easy to find honest and reliable traders/sellers. We've both dealt with some wonderful cartoon traders/sellers and we've also dealt with some very dishonest ones. This is a site to help you find those great traders/sellers so you can avoid the bad ones.

If you have any questions or comments about this site please
e-mail us.

BUYING 80's CARTOONS ON EBAY OR YAHOO AUCTIONS

Everytime that we have had a bad experience buying 80's cartoons it has been on Ebay or Yahoo. The majority of the people selling cartoons through online auctions are just out to make a fast buck. They buy a set of cartoons (usually from one of the sites listed below) and then just re-copy that set. As I said,it's usually just someone trying to make some fast cash so they don't invest any money into buying good VCRs,blank tapes,etc. Everytime I've bought a cartoon set on Ebay or Yahoo the tapes would come on low quality tapes,they wouldn't have a list with them listing which episodes were on what tape and worst of all-the quality was sometimes as low as a 3 on a 1-10 scale! I once even e-mailed a guy just to make sure the quality of his cartoons was excellent as he said in his auction and he e-mailed me back saying something like "You won't find a better set anywhere else" and they ended up being some of the worst quality episodes I've ever seen! I e-mailed him about this numerous times but to this day he hasn't replied.

I read lots of different cartoon trading boards and there's almost always someone on one of them complaining about the poor quality of a set that they purchased through Ebay or Yahoo so I know that it hasn't just happened to us.

Now I don't want you to get the idea that all sellers on Ebay and Yahoo are dishonest,they're not. I have purchased a few good sets through Ebay and Yahoo but you should know that when you buy cartoons through online auctions it's a gamble.

TRADER REVIEWS

TOON CENTRAL

Toon Central is definitely one of the best sites on the net for 80's cartoons (if not THE best). I have purchased 4 different sets from Toon Central in the past few months and Justin has ordered 2 sets so far. This is the only site that I have ordered from where the tapes come very professionally packaged with high quality professional labels,very nice episode lists (that are even on very high quality glossy paper ;)). The quality is definitely the best that I've seen also. The webmaster of Toon Central is Carole and she is very honest and friendly. The turnaround time on receiving the tapes is about average.

KATIE'S CARTOONS

Unfortunately Katie is currently not taking orders but if she has any cartoons that you can't find anywhere else she might make an exception (at least she did for me :)). She is one of the friendliest traders I've ever dealt with and the quality of all the cartoons that I've ever gotten from her has been great. She's got a very cool He-man & She-ra site too ;).

TON OF TOONS

The webmaster of this site is John. He's in Canada. He is very honest and reliable. He has lots of stuff besides 80's cartoons also. The quality of everything that we've ever gotten from him has been great,just as described. He is also very honest about the turnaround time of your order.

ROCKMAN'S TRANSFORMERS ROBOTS IN DISGUISE PAGE

This site is run by Jimmy. He has a section on his Transformers site for cartoon trading. He is a very nice guy with great quality episodes. The average turnaround time is very good also. He's got one of the coolest Transformers sites too ;).

COOL STUFF VIDEOS

This site is run by John. He has the largest selection of cartoons that I have ever seen. He has cartoons from the 60's,70's and 80's. At $18 for one 2-hour video ($19 if paying through PayPal) his videos are a little on the expensive side but what we have gotten from him so far has been exactly as he described and the videos come in very nice cases with cover,spine and back art. He also sells toys and lots of other items.

THE CARTOON VAULT

This site is run by Chris. He has taped all of his sets himself. I have ordered two of his sets so far and the quality of each was incredible. I received both very quickly and on high quality tapes. He is also very friendly and responds quickly to e-mails.
