do you just sit and flip through old auction catalogs to find comparisons?

Here's an example:
If I wanted to sell my T206 Cubs team set (which I don't, and this doesn't belong on the BST ), how would I figure an asking price? or a value to reference as one of my holdings/assets of the larger collection?

Thanks in advance for your thoughts...

I doubt the subset you are talking about would hold extra value as a subset (much like my type card set) so wouldn't you just value it as individual card prices and add them up? There is no way VCP could capture group lot sales as who is to say which card brought what?
