Opinions on a Very High End Card!!! Value?

shephech · May 7, 2009

Here it is:

Babe Ruth 5/10 Throwback Threads

I have no idea of a value... Any experts?

I was offered it for some of my highest items:

AROD 1994 SP Rookie Card BV-$100

Very tough decision indeed, on one hand I am giving some of my best items... on the other I would own 1 great card.

Thanks in advance for the replies!.

I'd do it. You're not giving up anything that's irreplaceable. There's a handful of A-Rod and Mays autos I'd rather have than the ones you do, so I'd do it for sure.

I would take the Ruth. The Ruth is easily a 350-400 card. Good luck!

Do it!

You can go higher. Really insist on high end cards in return.

Thanks for the replies so far!.

Strictly my opinion, but if they were my cards, I'd try to get that trade done minus the Cobb. I think that would be fair. The Ruth is a great card, but plain Ruth jerseys fetch less than pinstripe swatches. If you could do it minus the Cobb, I'd pull the trigger. Good luck with whatever you decide.

Trade it up man!!! The Ruth jerseys are tough to come across these days and thats just buying with cash!!! You can get another Arod auto...even the same one for around $120 or so and the Mays for another $70-$80. Don't know on the Cobb but he has a wide checklist for how old he is...either decision you are still left with nice cards

Thanks for the responses guys.

Is that a seam toward the top of the jersey swatch?

smapdi · May 8, 2009

The A-Rod is a 2007, correct? If it's a 2006, that might give me pause, but I'd probably still do it. The bottom line is Ruth is still king and jersey cards are better than bat cards. I'd think it's fairly even dollar-wise, though I don't value the Mays card very highly myself. I also would prefer a single high-end card to several nice but definitely lower-tier cards.

Quality > quantity. imo.

shephech · May 8, 2009

Yeah that's a seam, yep the Arod is 07.... so yeah I am leaning towards the deal too.

If it helps...I bet the seam at the top would add atleast a $50 premium on ebay/SV. Can't wait to see your decision

I'm on the same page with gracecollector. If it was a pinstriped jersey, do it. The way the trade is, try to keep the Cobb.

1st4040 · May 8, 2009

I'd be all for doing the deal.. Arod stuff has lost steam on the market and probably will continue to come down a bit more.. the Mays card may be nice but his stuff doesn't fetch top dollar either so easily replaceable and I don't understand why everyone is so hung up on the Cobb card exactly..

shephech · May 8, 2009

I never added a scan for the 1994 SP Arod Rookie... just wondering if everyone saw that as part of the deal too?.

Thanks for the responses.
