These cards seem to be really gaining in popularity and with the new sponsorship from Benchwarmer I am sure it will get even bigger. I am wondering if there is any kind of price guide out there for pricing?


Thanks,

Non Sport Update Magazine list prices for several series, but not all and they really never update old prices. They also don't list each and every auto, but an average price or set price. Really your only source of a good estimated value would be ebay, but like any trading card, the value will always depend on the demand at the time. One seller might get $100 and another might get $10, so pretty much have to decide for yourself what value you put on each item.

I kinda thought that may be the case.
Thanks for your input!
Appreciate it.

I have the last NSU if you were wondering what prices they put on certain cards. Just let me know what you want and I'll look it up, but like I said the prices are way off, either high or low in most cases.

Got the new NSU in the mail yesterday and it is a complete waste for Benchwarmer information. In this issue they decided for some reason to break down and finally list the 2007 gold set, but they already had it listed before. This time they actually listed each individual card, but they also referred to it as 2008. The prices they give on cards is absolutely insane and have no clue who is feeding them information. They list all the High Heel cards at the same price. There is no way that all the models in the line up would sell for the same price. They also give a set price for a signed high heel set at $2400 which would make a Signed card $10 more than an unsigned card. Give me a break! The cards are signed, numbered to 5, and are worth $120 more in total than an unsigned set????? What's funny is they always post the same disclaimer in each guide.

"This price guide is not an offer to buy or sell cards, nor does it imply or guarantee that advertisers in Non-Sport Update are obligated to sell at the prices listed herein. The sole purpose of this price guide is educational"

That last line kills me, seeing any one using the guide for educational purposes will become less knowledgeable about Benchwarmer trading cards when it comes to pricing or the cards in general. They still have the 2007 Gold Edition also listed under the 2003 Gold Edition and the prices are way different. So to save yourself brain cells, I'd highly recommend not buying a NSU for any information or pricing on Benchwarmer trading cards. You will only be left disappointed. Plus the fact is doesn't even contain certain releases like 2004 series 2 or 2005 series 1 which both have some nice autos/swatches/kisses is a joke.

Maybe someone on this board has some free time they could start the first true and more of an accurate price guide to benchwarmer cards. I mean seeing a $7 auto listed in a guide as $150 isn't very accurate or educational.

Sorry for the rant, but needed to be said due to the cards not getting the proper respect they deserve.
