I was gonna post this in the other thread, but it became another one of those koop pissing contests.

Anyway, I have A LOT of cards from when I was a kid, I have all sorts of cards, basketball, baseball, and Football mainly. none really older than 88..most are from the early 90's though, like Jordan, Magic Johnson, Pippen, etc. I have a collection of like 95 Nolan Ryan cards but I checked the becket and a lot of them werent even listed.

Anyway does anyone know what I should do? should I keep them till I'm old? sell them now on Ebay or what?

thanks

When you say that they're not listed, and correct me if I'm wrong, I think that it would be priced as a "Common Card".

poop on them

Put them on Ebay, and do complete sets as complete sets, and single cards as singles. No lots, it’s trowing money away. Put them on a couple of weeks into their respective seasons. You’ll get the most that way.

Well, if you don't really want them, sell any ones you can get a decent return on.

The rest? Cheap wallpaper.

they can be used to make your bike sound cool

My brother used one of my favorite Felix Potvan cards for that.

i once had the chance to sell a card that i pulled out of a pack for 500 bucks. i decided to hold onto it and see how high it would get in value. long story short, i lost the card and couldn't get braces for my sons teeth

hahaa nice, i used to do the samething.


anyways, prtysux, i'll take them all if you want to give them away

I have a lot of cards from when I was a kid. Mostly football, a bunch of Walter Payton cards, Montana cards, Earl Campbell, Marino, Elway, Rice, Young (NFL), Reggie White rookie cards, and a few from the 60's. Baseball I have Tony Gwynn, Mark Mcguire, and Roger Clemens rookie cards.

Most of these have high prices in the guides, but when it comes to selling them, I'd get pennies on the dollar. I don't think they are worth keeping either, because cards aren't really collected anymore.

So, I suggest selling them on EBay too. You might get some sucker willing to pay close to the guide price. Maybe keep your earliest Jordan card in case cards are worth anything in the future.
