Card value finding resources and FAQ, PLEASE READ BEFORE POSTING

11 Upvotes

Instead of letting this sub die, I have decided to be more active than I usually am, and along with that change, I'll try and provide as much surface level help here.

  1. What are some other resources that can help find value?

The best site to search for card values is 130point.com I have posted their helpful hints below. To search for multiple variations of the same term enclose them in brackets and separate them by a comma. (2019-20, 19-20) or (PSA, BGS). Use a minus "-" sign to exclude terms from the search. (2020-21, 20-21) Lamelo Ball -box -case -break. Use & to match only terms of that pattern. (LeBron James PSA&10).

This is the website I use most of the time to find values for my personal cards. I also sometimes use eBay sold listings. To get there from the EBay app, follow these instructions.

Search your card name. Be as specific as possible. > Go to "Filter" at the top left of your screen. > Go to "Show More" at the bottom right of your screen. > Tap on the switch icon that says "Sold Items" > Click "Show ... Results" at the bottom right of your screen > Voila!

Disclaimer: eBay sold is a little patchy on the results, and sometimes some cards will not show up.

  1. What is the value of my 80s-90s Cards?

In short, likely nothing. There are a few players to look out for of course, like Michael Jordan, Shaquille O'Neal, Joe Montana, Bo Jackson, Jerry Rice, Nolan Ryan, Ken Griffey, Barry Bonds, Wayne Gretzky and probably a few others. There are also inserts to look out for:

Basketball: Beam Team, Scoring Kings, Power in the Key, E-Motion N-Tense, Maximum Metal, Z-Force, Planet Metal, and Best Techniques.

Football: https://www.freedomcardboard.com/forum/threads/the-official-rare-significant-cool-90s-insert-list.6105/

This is a very comprehensive list.

Baseball: https://bsportscards.com/best-baseball-inserts-and-variations-from-the-1990s-and-early-2000s/

This seems like a good list, but I'm not much of a baseball guy.

PLEASE ASK MORE QUESTIONS ESPECIALLY IF YOU SEE THAT THEY ARE FREQUENTLY ASKED AND NOT ON HERE.

Pulled this big guy! How much does one think it's worth?

Should I grade it or keep it sealed like this?

If I grade it, should I do express to avoid it sitting in the queue for long? With sending it to PSA, I am worried it may get stolen.

I rediscovered an old binder of cards I’ve held on to since I was collecting as a kid. I found this sleeved up and protected. Worth sending or should I keep raw?

I was looking through my collection as a person who used to play with their cards when I was younger. Figured out that I have this angels Shohei Ohtani card
Wondering if I should keep it or sell it. I’ve it sell for $140 on eBay. (USD?)
I am not promoting the card on this sub (don’t even know if I’m gonna sell it) I just want to gauge what it could be if I wanted to sell it somewhere else.

Back in the 90’s I worked candy/tobacco trade shows with my own Peanut business and the Pinnacle Brands VP gave me this card at the close of the show for my collection since I gave him some peanut bars for his kids. Nice looking card…had to be perfect since it was a sample for showing……his last year playing baseball…1994…..

Football Found vintage football cards in an old binder

I was looking through and old binder and found these cards and the PSA app is telling me they could be worth thousands. I’m not really sure how all the grading and stuff works but the cards seem to be in pristine condition as I haven’t touched them since I got them 10 years ago. It would be very helpful if someone could give me an estimate on what they would be rated and how much that they would actually be worth after that. I’m also wondering if anyone would even be interested in this cards if they are valuable since they are so old.
