With Bob Lemke now gone from SCD and Rich Klein gone from Beckett many years of experience have been lost in the editing of the annual price guides produced by those companies. While price guides are used by few as the actual worth of any card, I personally find them helpful in providing

I also use the guides as a benchmark, which, with the application of a percentage factor based on grade, provides a value I use in determining opening bids in the auctions I list on ebay. Does anybody else use these in a similar fashion.

Does anybody have any thoughts about expectations going forward with these two resources? My guess is that Bob and Rich may well not want to comment publicly, but some thoughts via e-mail would be appreciated.

I agree that the DVD is of no value to most of us, but older cards in such a format could be useful.
