Questions for dealers

[savedfrommyspokes]

You can regularly purchase cards in similar condition as yours on ebay for around 50 cents a card for 60-65s, 33 cents a card for 66-69s and 20 cents a card for early 70s. If you sold them in lots yourself on ebay you would be lucky to clear $2000 BEFORE fees, etc. So for a dealer to purchase from you or trade with, you would be extremely lucky to get $1000, more likely than not, $700-800 would be generous.....most dealers would likely offer you less due to the time involved to resell(sorting) for a profit.


Having bought a number of accumulations such as yours to "resort" and then resell, the prices mentioned above would be my would be what I have experienced. You may want to consider selling in lots by year on ebay versus selling to a dealer as you will be better off price wise going that route.

SOLD. Met a great guy and dealer and got a 2000 World Series home plate signed by the Mets head grounds crew and a psa 3 1952 mays. Which I think was very fair.

Cool item. The eBay listing shows the Home Plate as coming from the Bullpen.

Yea he told me about how the MLB number doesn't show up on the site because when they redid the site it lost a lot of information. Very forthcoming dealer and one I plan on doing a lot of future business with. If anyone is interested feel free to shoot me a PM.

They would never have a logo on top of a home plate used in a game.
