Baseball Cards

angie_d_121074 asked:


I am a single mother of an 8 yr old boy. He has recently took interest in collecting baseball cards. I have no clue on how to help him. I how downloaded “collection explorer” and a price guide from tuff stuff website. He bought 300 cards and I have organized them using the software. There is one column that is labeled “set.” His this for his reference or were the cards made in sets? If so how do I know what set it is? Could someone please help me to get started on this journey? He has became an ebay junky trying to buy more. I know he is buying worthless items, but it is what he wants. I’m not going to stop him as longs as he doesn’t ask for a lot of money. I would love to hear any suggestions you may have.

The cards came in cereal boxes in the 70’s and continued for many years. There are not many cards in an entire years set. I was wondering why they do not seem to show alot of interest from collectors as I have seen in eBay! I would have to think that there was a limited number of them made at that time and you just don’t seem to see them that much anywhere. I was interested in getting a few would I be throwing my money away?

A little over 10 years ago my grandpa gave me a box of baseball cards with an assortment of cards from many different players. Some players within the box that I recognize are: Barry Bonds, Greg Maddux, and Nolan Ryan. A few years ago I borrowed a copy of the Beckett guide to look up the values of the cards. Some were as high as $8/each!! What I want to now is how can I sell my collection and get the most money for it?

Would someone who collects baseball card please provide me with some suggestions on what I can do?

Thank you

I have a collection of baseball and football cards. I’m looking for info like:
1. what % of book value could I expect to get from a collector?
2. from someone wanting to re-sell?
3. Any good price guides online that give you the same data as, say, Beckett?

The collection I have is mainly Atlanta Brave and Dallas Cowboy cards from the 60’s to the mid 90’s, some fulls sets, some partial sets, single cards, misc.

Since all cards, I assume, came from a pack, there is no such thing as an uncirculated card like there is with coins?
So is mint the top grade? followed by excellent, very good, good, average, fair, poor, and then maybe trash?

I am moving out of state in less than one month and I hoped to let them go at a garage sale this weekend. Would it be best to just ask “one price take all”?
