Prices discussion

[Republicaninmass]

Still some major upside for a lot of undervalued cards. I just cant imagine prices going any higher. Hence why I sold!

There will definitely be a bump for Koufax and Mays upon their deaths. There was with Aaron and he was a lot more accessible.

Even a blind squirrel finds a nut!

What about single signed HOF balls? Any correlation with the signed card market?

Usually move in tandem with the players overall market. Signed cards may jump at higher multipliers depending on card/condition, but generally SS balls move up or down as the card markets do.

A bit more nuanced, but population plays into as well. There are far more signed mantle Baseballs than Cards in the marketplace, for example, so cards will tend to out-perform given population counts.

I think it'll depend on the player and their tendencies as a signer. For example, I'd be willing to pay a lot more for a vintage Hank Aaron than the big unwieldy signature he had at the end of his life. Same with Stan Musial, etc.
