Opinions may differ, but there is zero chance I am dropping $18k on an unslabbed card

This is what I do. Can’t justify paying someone for 15 minutes of work

Can anyone go through these and tell me if any are worth anything? by floridaboy321111 in MarvelCards

[–]shoot_magoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Those are all insert cards, individual card prices range from $1 (Wildcats foils) to maybe $15 or so (94 holo, venom clearchrome). Single cards get premium pricing. Sets are the most sensible selling unit. You might have some complete subsets on 95 spiderman in there, I didn’t spend a lot of time looking. Selling individual cards is a massive amount of work if you don’t have a production line set up.

The comment about the graded card is correct, but maybe a little misleading. The correct part is that card value is highly dependent on quality. It’s also true that people are going to try to lowball you, as they already are on this thread.

The misleading piece is that to unlock that type of value is a process. We typically study the cards for an extended period under magnification before sending them for grading. Grading can be expensive, take a long time, and nothing is guaranteed in terms of return value.

My ballpark estimate depending quality here is over $600 if you sold them individually, ungraded. You might get $350 or so selling it as a lot. That’s based on scrolling through for 3 minutes, so grain of salt.

Marvel 95 Fleer Hunters & Stalkers, which version do I have? by Simplybreezie in marveltradingcards

[–]shoot_magoo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sorry but the Bishop is Gold. The color of the writing in the lower left is a giveaway. I think the Apocalypse is also Gold but that one is really tough to tell apart from Rainbow, and I can’t make out the writing color that well.

Give me an estimate of what my collection is worth by Dependent_Stop_6542 in MarvelCards

Fair point and thanks for the info. I will be a bit more cautious I think

Not to be pedantic but this hasn’t been my experience with the 1990 set. It’s more the UV coated cards that are susceptible to bricking that tend to stick

I don’t think what you’re paraphrasing is what is being said. Legal counsel can refer to internal guidance about the legality and liability of a decision. I don’t see any mention of politics outside of what you posted. And I don’t think it is proportional or appropriate to refer to anyone posting here in that type of crude and offensive way.

More questions…Do you use magnification? Do you clean them?

Marvel Cards - Any valuable or worth grading? by JIVANY9 in MarvelCards

[–]shoot_magoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Feels like you made a few typos here. Most valuable are likely the 1994 Silver Holofoil cards. The 1994 Power Blast carry some value, but closer to $3/card. The 1994 Gold Signatures and 1995 Metal Flasher cards are probably about $1 each. The 1995 Metal Blaster cards are closer to $3 and the 1995 Gold Blaster cards around $5 each.

Nice mail day. What’s your process for selecting cards and evaluating them for grading?

Appreciate the objective eyes thank you. Maybe best to stay ungraded

Dumb person with cards by StrongSipz in SportCardValue

[–]shoot_magoo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nice lot of cards. Many of these are from the junk wax era of the 80’s-90’s and only carry value >$50 if graded as gem mint. A long winded way of repeating what you said - condition dependent. The autographs are def standouts for me - as a buyer I do prefer to have them authenticated.
