    Beckett is a complete waste IMO. If you want to know what your card is worth go on ebay and look it up. Its not hard and takes about 5 seconds. Why do you want someone/something (Beckett) telling you what your card is worth? Especially when they aren't even accurate.

    If you cant find it on ebay then you aren't going to find it on Beckett either. Honestly I don't see why people trade with it.

    FREEBAY is definitely where you need to go if you want to see how much you can get for giving your cards away.
    The want list at this link features what I need of Gretzky, Roy, Ottawa Senators, and Miscellaneous sets. I also have a CFL want list on my page and if you have nothing from it I will consider other traders of current Ottawa Senators,Guy Lafleur, + trade bait.

    Beckett does seem to not be bothered with the plethora or cards from 1995 and up. It is a good guide for vintage or what base sets are valued at. Then again, these aren't even accurate prices to have collection valued at for insurance purposes.

    Not priced due to scarcity... c'mon, get with the times or take an example form someone else's book. Beckett needs to put out an annual or bi-annual book containing prices cards have went for and a reference. Like dealing with rare coins or coins graded to a certain level.

    An MS70 1962 Canadian Silver Dollar sold for x amount at yadda yadda auction on this date.

    A Sidney Crosby Patch /9 sold for x amount at yadda yadda auction/sale on this date.

    A monthy beckett that has no new information since the last release is a cash-grab and irrelevant in today's society. I don't know a single person who uses beckett as a reference. Beckett, or someone, needs to re-model the price-guide to reflect the fact that it's friggin 2015 and the internet has been around for 20+ years.

    Ebay can be a way to give your cards away if you do not know how to list them. If you use buy it now or best offer you will be pleased with your sales.

    The only use I see of the beckett is that I have old copies of the Beckett Plus at home and I can see the complete checklist of 90's products in them.
