Collections are highly recommended so that people can find your card easier, if you can't find a collection you think your item belongs in, let us know and we can add one! Product tags are still a work in progress but will eventually be used for customers to narrow down their search even more. Think of putting "rookie", team name, or anything else that might not be in a collection for your tag. Collections are a broad way to sort, while tags will narrow it down.
