(They just aren’t gonna get it.) Nothing stops a seller from using really high shipping rates (which might make a card’s value look lower than it actually is). Nothing stops a seller from asking whatever they want. Just watching any given eBay auction, or looking at “listing” prices in stores (whether brick-and-mortar, e-commerce, or otherwise) can be grossly misleading. (If you’re sufficiently nerdy to be into that sorta thing - as we are.)Ī market price needs to reflect what someone is actually willing to pay for an item It may seem obvious, but is often ignored…Ī market price needs to reflect what someone is actually willing to pay for an item we use the nearest thing we can to a “gold standard” method, by drawing upon auction results from a limited set of sellers (such that seller reputation does not introduce variance into the results) and, particularly, we focus on sellers that intitiate their auctions with low starting values. You can read a little about our data collection methods in our blog postings. Our models are also meant to be built upon reliable data sources: we exercise strict control over the creation of market value data. Please check out our statistical model’s estimates and pit those estimates against your own instinct. We also encourage you to be critical of what you see.
We share the modeling assumptions in the blog section of this website. Our models are also meant to be transparent. The models use something pretty wicked call “inference,” which lets us predict the prices of trading cards even if a particular card hasn’t sold recently. This means chasing down data based on auction prices - rather than asking prices. We use actual market data - rather than expert estimates, which can be prone to bias - in order to inform statistical models. Here at SportsCardValues, we seek to find the true market values of sports cards & collectables. Even if you aren’t into the hobby quite yet, you can tide over your curiosity about what cards are the most valuable.
Here, we offer a sports card price guide (plus, a supplementary gaming cards price guide) to estimate the value of your collectible trading cards. Be they Pokemon and Digimon gaming cards or Magic cards, etc. Or, more generally, what are my (non-sport) trading cards worth?.
What are my sports cards worth? … Be they Basketball cards, Hockey cards, Baseball cards or Football cards - heck, even golf or tennis or bowling.
