I'm looking to get started collecting baseball bobbleheads. Can anyone out there point me in the right direction to find a shop/site that sells them? The MLB site has many, but I'm wanting to find a place that may sell older b'heads. Yes, I have looked at eBay; I'm looking for a baseball memorabilia type shop/site.
Thanks for any help in advance.

www.yawkeywaystore.com used to have a bunch of older player bobbles, pluse they were the company that made the generic team ones (the little kid face).

tmorss9 - Thanks for the guidance; they do offer some nice bobbleheads, but I'm interested in seeing dolls from more than just the BoSox.
Any others suggestions from the memorabilia gurus on BF?

I'm not a BF guru by any standards (just joined it...), but I really think that eBay is the best for bobbleheads. I've done extensive web searches myself and I found the official "Bobblehead store", but of course it's all entertainment icons and celebrities. Another thing you can do is try to get to your local ballparks if they have bobblehead giveaways. Those are usually very valuable, and are referred to "SGA"s on eBay (Stadium GiveAway). Type in "SGA bobblehead" on the eBay search and you'll find pages and pages of scarce bobbleheads. Some go for very good money, some you can get for steals.
Whichever method you choose, best of luck. I myself have close to 30 bobbleheads, pretty much all but five stadium giveaways from the Portland Sea Dogs (Red Sox AA). The SGAs are usually very high quality too.
Good luck.

Thanks for the advice, I'll try tweaking my search on eBay.
