I started to check some prices on Ebay a bit this morning and this is my conclusion:
The Football cards going for big dollar are the Autographed, Jersey, and Rookie cards (Graded at a 10). Even super rare/limited print cards that used to be worth Hundreds of dollars in the 1990's are only being listed for like $10-$20 now. If the card isn't authenticated at a grade of 10, the value becomes somewhat irrelevant. So I looked into grading.... and it costs $20-$50 per card? I mean, I get it... but ouch. I doubt mine would come back at a grade 10. ![]() Last edited by Molitoth; 06-02-2020 at 06:24 AM.. |

a lot of the auto market is hilarious. Twenty different kinds of autos from the same player, numbered /25 /99 or /50... which makes one believe that it is way more rare than it is.

All speculative bullshit. I hate it. It's not even worth the entry price. But I've felt that way on Bowman for years and it still goes up. |

I’ve watched stuff like this but does it really matter? https://youtu.be/c4Qzuo4PjYs Can you go over the cost of both? I’ve thought about the platinum. |

If anybody is buying, Id sell the 86 fleer basketball set I've been working on. straight psa9, the big cards still missing are Jordan, Wilkins, checklist, and Steve Johnson. its just under 50% and I have most of the tough commons along with all of the other star cards.
Just throwing it out there. |

From that submission, here are 4 cards I submitted for example. I sent in an old Chiefs card, a 64 topps Smokey Stover. Needed it for a registry set and didn't want to pay $200 for a common. So I had one I thought would get psa7, but it came back 8. I submitted (2) 2000 Topps Chrome john Abraham rookies. Again, another registry set need. I think I gave maybe 5 bucks per card. I subbed them both, thinking both would be 9. Got a 9 and a 10. sold the 9 for way too little apparently. It went within 45 minutes of listing on ebay. I needed to add one other card to finish the submission so I added an 89 score Barry Sanders. it came back 10. I had subbed other 89 scores in the past and never got a 10. this time I did, go figure. In any bulk submission or 6 card voucher, I never had the ceiling I did with the platinum submission. Maybe I just wised up and finally submitted cards that were solid? Who knows. I've got a bunch of mid-80s rookies that I would like to grade and would justify the signup costs. Thinking about doing it again to see if lightning strikes again. |

Why not try out SGC? I've seen a lot of people moving over to SGC over PSA lately. Their slabs sure do look and feel better than PSA. Their grading from what I have run across has always been spot on. |
