What are the most liquid graded cards?
Sometime back when I asked general information about T206 cards, someone mentioned ANY t206 in ANY grade could be sold at any time for around fair market value.
Looking on ebay and buying a few here and there, I tend to agree. However, what others would be included in that? 33 Goudey maybe? My criteria would be: 1) stars AND commons 2) graded by PSA, SGC or BVG 3) within say 10% of recent sales 4) most "reasonable" grades grades for the time - say ANY grade for pre-war, but 5 or above post war, 7 or above "vintage" (pre 1980) I mostly look for T206 and late 70's, and can at least say, it better be a 9 or 10 to easily sell a 1978 Topps. 8 or below are tough, even for a couple dollars. Obviously something like the Murray rookie can sell fairly easily, Ken Brett, well... Thoughts? Last edited by silvor; 03-03-2018 at 03:08 PM. |

within 10%
I would say nothing is guaranteed to fall within your parameters. I would say the ones with the best chance are T206, 1952 topps (centered examples), national chicle football (nice eye appeal examples for the grades) all are relatively solid if you follow the caveats i added. i am only referring to psa and sgc. i do not sell bgs/bvg cards so i don't know their market.

I'd agree with 52ts, as there is always someone, somewhere, willing to tackle the set.

Generally speaking, whatever I have is not liquid at all. So the natural philosophy of marketing and sales indicators would be to buy my polar opposites.

This will be an interesting thread to read.
Anyway, I am personally not a big fan of graded cards in general, but I think everybody's right when you say, buy the card in the holder and not the number on the holder. So any great looking prewar hall of famers in PSA or SCG holders that are PSA 2 or SGC 30 or above are safe bets; well-centered, even better. To be specific, can't go wrong with T206's.

I'm not sure if they're graded by anyone, but on a hot day it would be the Nestles NBA chocolate bars from a few years ago....
Sorry, couldn't resist. |

As a longtime acquaintance once told me, and I believe it's true, everything will sell for a price. If it doesn't then the price just needs to be lower.

I understand the concept of a buyer’s market and a seller’s market, but in reality for each transaction there has to be one of each.

When I first saw the word "liquid" I was thinking T206 Red Cobb. Those seem to have fairly stable prices, in the short term, in certain conditions and eye appeal.

I think the focus on set doesn't really answer the question. If you need money like right now a T206 Cobb will sell immediately at a reasonable price. And SGC 40 Frank Chance yellow portrait may take some time, and a somewhat lower than market price.
