Addie- I just went on vintagecardprices.com which is linked to this site, and found that the last transaction for a PSA 3 was $316 and an SGC 40 went for $391 (who says SGC cards don't sell for more than PSA?) |

It seems like a great site but I don't really want to have to register for it. |

I believe some of the information may be free. I think you can see the SGC price history since the site is linked to SGC. For PSA, GAI, and Beckett, you do need to register. Anyway, I find it among the most useful tools out there. It's a good thing. |

Even though there seem to be five specimens on the PSA pop report site and two on the SGC, the Alexander card is something you don't see everyday. I wouldn't be surprised to see them sell for substantially higher, if not now, someday soon. |

Dave, you are missing something, a few brain cells. When did I ask anyone to let me mooch off of their VCP membership? I asked a question about a going rate for a card, and Barry suggested I use that site for these types of questions but since I just have a single question, I don't see myslf registering. I don't remember asking anyone to let me mooch from their 9.99 a month membership. Perhaps you are trying too hard. |

I don't understand how I'm out of line, it was he who was attacking me because of a question I had asked and it is clear he has it out for me. Why am I immature but he is not? |

Addie...all of your posts are regarding prices of cards...you didn't want to take responsibility for the lost card in the mail. personally I think you should have had to pay the full amount...you got off easy. the tone of your emails is indicative of your intentions here...at least to me. to me this is immature behavior. dave is established here and contributes things of value regularly...you do not. |

It is him who is attacking me, I don't know anything about the guy so what am I to do? Just say, ok? What does my reaction to one transaction have to do with me asking about this GC ALexander card? Nothing. So what is it you have a problem with? I had a disagreement with you guys so that means I can't ask a question about a card? I am interested in the prices because I am interested in acquiring the card, what other avenue would you suggest? Aren't questions about cards values and rarity a major topic for discussion? Why am I not allowed to ask about them? |

this isn't a matter for the grammar police but the idiom squad should swing into action here. Addie writes "it is clear he has it out for me," apparently meaning that "he is hostile to me." The correct idiom would be "it is clear that he has it IN for me." To say "he has it out for me" implies the opposite of hostility. |

Peter I don't mean to give the impression I'm hostile towards you or anyone else, but if someone is going to post in my thread for no other reason than to attack me for something stupid then what am I supposed to do or think? This was a thread about a particular card and its possible value, not a thread to discuss personal differences or matters of opinion. You and anyone else can e-mail if you would like to discuss personal differences. This was a thread about an Alexander card and I wish it didn't turn into something other than that. |

Addie it pisses me off that you can come on here and obviously decide to sell your stuff w/ no guaranteed backing from you that your stuff will get to someone....you won't take any responsiblity for it. It pisses me off that the buyer had to come on that thread and say he would take 50% of what he is actually owed, because he is dealing with you. |

1- I'd think about $200 is reasonable, if not a bit high. I live in the past, though. |

My only recommendation is to do some research yourself, and when all else fails, tap the board. Googling has it's advantages. Before I buy anything, I google it, VCP it, eBay completed auctions it, and then make a decision. |

You guys, this whole thing baffles me. 80 percent of this thread has nothing to do with my transaction with another member and in no way has anything to do with the subject. If you have a problem then address me, this public showing off is strange. What do you get out of it? We don't even know each other and nothing you're angry about has anything to do with you. People are actually suggesting I'm some sort of crook for the loss of a package. I'm not stealing from anyone and its absurd that anyone would even suggest it. Ironically, it is the buyer who is least upset with the whole thing and I have already begun rectifying the situation. None of that has anything to with anyone else but me and him and because I may have different opinions than you does not mean I'm against you. Some of you have taken something that in no way involves you extremely personal and have personally insulted me or insinuated insults when we have never met and are total strangers. I have never antagonized anyone, or personally attacked anyone out of nowhere. I really dont understand that. These are harsh feelings and attitudes to have when we're talking about baseball cards and related topics. This was a thread about a particular baseball card and its value and rarity and somehow it managed to turn into a personal attack. Some people will pick apart what I'm posting but its not needed. I understand how you feel and if you don't like me or want to trade with or buy from me thats fine. |

I just got back from dinner to find I started a bit of a conflagration here. The only point I was trying to make is there are many resources on the internet to look up prices, and part of the fun of this hobby is to do a little searching. I'd rather do the work myself if I want to know what a card is worth. I would never ask that question publicly, as that is the easy way out. |

I don't like to use price guides because I don't find them particularly helpful or accurate and I don't have access to the PSA registry. I've seen many posts asking about PSA pop reports and I haven't seen anyone accuse them of being cheap or lazy. Cards could book for one amount but sell a lot lower and vice versa. I find it best to ask people who are very familiar with the hobby and its ebb and flow about what a good price to pay for a certain card is. To me, it was a good idea to ask you guys but it did not turn out that way. |

The V100 series is scarce compared with other issues and imo under-valued. |
