A few wrestling card questions (Carnation and Parkhurst)

[Bored5000]

Thanks for the information, guys. Your information was very helpful. I had also done a bunch of Googling before starting this thread and found some previous threads each of you posted in about the Psrkhurst and Carnation sets.

I have been watching the Flair PSA 7 that is currently on eBay. The card originally started as a $350 BIN and has been steadily dropping in price each time the 10-day listing for the card passes without a sale. I am looking forward to the upcoming 30 For 30 on Flair. The trailer for the episode looks as though the program will be outstanding.

Are you getting into the market for each of these sets?

I would like to pick up a few of the major cards. I wish I had seen the complete sets of Parkhurst cards that sold at Mile High a few months ago. I realize the sets were lower condition, but $241 for a complete set from both years seemed like a great pick up for a collector.

I am mostly a non sports collector or sports outside the big four. I just finished the 1972 STP racing set. That is where the card in my avatar comes from. That is only an 11-card set, but there are a couple of extreme rarities contained within that set. I post most frequently in the "vintage racing" thread on the main board. Other than the '72 STP set, my collection is largely a variety of iconic/star type cards from a bunch of different sets and genres.

I like collecting racing (and cards outside the big four sports in general) because there are only a handful of cards that individually sell for over $500. I am always interested whenever the various wrestling sets are discussed on here, since I grew up as a huge WWF fan and faithfully read the Apter magazines each month.

I check out the auctions for wrestling cards on eBay at least a couple times a week. I am sure you know this, but so much of the eBay auctions for wrestling cards always seem to be modern autograph cards/diva cards.

Let me know who you are looking for and i may have some if you want to go that route....i'd say they are lower grade if i have them.
