Hi,
I have a few uncut sheets that I'm thinking of moving on, either selling or trading.
I was just wondering what the market value was at the moment.
I have..
IAOCP #205 of 250. Signed by d&d
Red crown v1
V5 s&m original. Signed by d&d
V6 s&m original. #20 of 250 signed by d&d
V7 carbon
Fultons casino orange. Signed by d&d, Fulton & dan Phillips
Fultons casino brown. Signed by d&d, Fulton & dan Phillips

If any of you could give me a ball park figure value on these it would be much appreciated.
Thanks
Jay.

  • Pick a card, any card...no, not THAT card!

Market value of anything is what someone is willing to pay for it.  Period.

Use my rule of thumb.

Go to eBay.  Do a search for the item you're interested in pricing, but filter the search to look only at "sold listings".  From there, check out the most recent sales and what they went for.  Sales that are too old may not be representative of current value, but if that's all you have to go on, well...

You won't always find the exact item, particularly if it's not something that hits the market often - that should be a partial clue about the value, since if you can't buy it, that's going to affect the value, right?  Make an estimate by finding something that would be comparable in value.

Thanks for the advice Don. I have been over to ebay but I just searched for those particular sheets for sale. I didn't search for sold items I so will do that.
As the market value is 'what someone will pay for it. What would people pay or trade for any of them?'

When you see the prices they've sold for recently, that right there should answer your question.  Since that's what someone actually paid for them, one can assume that's what someone will pay for them, no?

Speaking as someone who was trying to sell uncut sheets on Ebay recently I can answer your question as such.

Not Much

I have seen the IAOCP sheet go for as low as $25 and has high as $50 (with deck) recently

No one wanted to pay $45 for mine

Uncuts are trickier than decks - not the same level of demand, but also nowhere near the same quantities, either.  Many might exist in runs of 100 or less.
