Raw common prices -- help needed

[Archive]

Posted By: Scott Levy

I'm thinking of putting together a few raw sets and would like input from board members on what the underlying value of commons in say G or VG would be for the following:

T205
T207
1915 Cracker Jack
1933 Goudey (R319)
1952 Topps

Thanks so much for your input!!

try t205.org for the T205 prices. I think that someone on the board put that and t206.org together. I've been looking for a T207 price guide also and haven't come up with anything...

SCD lists $45 for a T207 VG common, but there are a ton of uncommon commons in that issue that bring a significant premium.

It really depends on how much of a beater you want. You can get T-205s that would be in good condition raw and a have paper loss or just a ton of wrinkles for $9 or $10.

Just search completed Ebay auctions to see the range that cards in different conditions sell for. For example search for - T205 -psa -sgc -gai. The seller's attempt to grade the card will usually be in the title or description, but what the card sells for will be based more on what the card looks like. There will be plenty of examples on all the issues you list so just find some pictures lining up with the kind of card you want and you'll see what they tend to sell for. Shipping cost will be a big factor here too so be sure to consider all costs.

I have sold these sets before, in this condition full book can be about 15% of NM Value as a whole. If you had a buyer for all then I would sell at 12%. Just a thought-- for the record, there is a gentleman looking for 4 of the sets, if you want to sell email so i can give you his number Scott.

I'm collecting both the T205 and T207 sets right now in approximately VG condition. If they aren't raw when I buy them, I set them free. And if the card was in a BVG holder, I usually have to bandage my hand afterward. A T207 common in VG condition will go anywhere from the low $20's to about $40. It's not tough to find a VG T205 in the $25 range.

I just bought a T207 in vg condition for $25. That's a pretty good price, I'd say.

The lower grade commons have taken a beating lately...I have seen commons sold on ebay for between $7-$15 in the p-fair-good range (In June of 2007, p-f-g commons were selling for $15-$20). VG prices have been a bit slow lately in raw...most go for between $20 and $40 depending on player, bidder, and overall eye appeal of card. Group lots have sold for discounts as well. I think the 12-15 percent rate is actually a good guide for cards in the g-vg range.
