Re: Sports trading cards, neon sign, PS2, others
They make special books called Beckett, for each sport; that you can look up the value of the cards. I'd have to say cards aren't fun anymore, it's only good for trading with friends if they collect too. You'd be lucky to get .10 on the dollar for the value of most of them, unless a player is really hot at the time or it's a real valuable card of them. Only a couple of times have I ever got the value or more than the value for a card. One time was a ladanian tomlinson 2001 pacific rookie autograph base card. It was valued at like $80 at the time and I ended up getting like a hair over $100 for it, but he was real hot like a year ago when he got MVP that year. It books at $150 now so... I sold it for over the value but still in the end that guy still got a deal, it was good at the time for both of us. And stores like shinders wont give you shit for your cards, not unless you have a really good card of a hot player that they can unload quickly, but then you minaswell unload it yourself cause they're only gonna give you like 30% cash value for it or like 50% trade value for other cards for it. I'd just say either keep'em, trade'em with only friends or people that'll trade even values with you, or if your tight for money like me, take it if you have to.
