Brooks Robinson and the Baltimore Orioles

[Chstrite]

Plenty of Brooks collectors. I am one. Depends on what you are selling, condition, and price. Show us.

1961 Topps Brooks Robinson. Comps on a PSA 4 is about $31.65, per VCP. Not sure there is a huge market for a PSA 4. In t is nice but just my feedback. Your price is at comp so that might be the issue given how plentiful this card is at a lower grade. Hope this helps.

Thanks. I'm not sure what VPC is as I've never heard of it. I just go by eBay comps. The last 3 (only 3 posted) on eBay sold for $40, $40 and $39. So those are the prices I used. But like you said not a big market for Brooks PSA.

These are the comps I used. Both were, of course, plus shipping.

A card priced at right around comp not selling within 24 hours on the BST is not proof of much of anything, but there's not a huge competitive market for lower grade 60's slabs. Brooks absolutely carries a very healthy premium, and has many collectors as this very active and lengthy thread shows.

Yes, Brooks is popular. I can tell by this thread. But I disagree with the part that it's priced right at comps. I've posted eBay sold comps to show this thing sells at $40. So asking $26 shipped is not even close to comps. But it is what it is. I appreciate everyone's tips.

I guess I'm going to have to look up VPC. Is it like 130point where it just gives eBay sold values? Or something different?
