Price Guides

Does anyone know of a good place to find values of Nascar Items.
I am looking for values of old racing programs pre 70's.
I found a couple at a yard sale and was curious of values.
I can't find them anywhere, I even bought the Beckett Big book for Nascar
for 2011.....what a waste of $$$$ they list cards in the check list in back then don't even list a value for them in the book???????

I also picked up a couple old phone cards and True Value cards that are still in the original packs and trying to find value of them. A couple of the Jeff Gordon ones I've never seen before but can't find a listing for them anywhere.

Thanks.

E-bay will probably be your best option.

A lot of the stuff I have isn't on there, as most of it is very old or very rare.

For example I have a limited edition Davey Allison Set that was put out by either Havoline or Traks, it's a limited set and the 1st card is autographed and certified.

I can't find a price listed and same with many of the older phone cards, and old programs. I can't believe there isn't a site where people collect Nascar Programs.

paper is heavy and takes up A LOT of space thats why most do not collect progragms. Also most people collect only the races that mean something to them. The big races that are significant everyone that collects brings down the value because there are a ton of them.

The old old ones do show up on ebay and even a great one can normally be had for under 50.00

I have seen the 76 daytona 500 one with lineup sheet go for under 20.00 they do not price guide these because there are a bunch and the value would never change. So once you did it your pretty much done for 10-20 years and very few collectors to buy it.

most of the phone cards are virtually worthless. If its a high dollar one you may get a tenth of the face value if your lucky. It was a nice idea but they were about 20 years late in the us for making them.

not sure which allison set your talking about but the one that was released in packs at the gas stations the autograph was randomly inserted. Very rare for that time frame but probably not so much on todays standards. I bought a PERFECT one for less than 80.00 since its his only certified atograph it brings that much money but not much more

tru value cards are not worth much at all unless its the iroc set and thats dropped a few hundred dollars since they were released.

They do not price a lot of this stuff because its insignificant to the hobby and do not sell often. when they do its cheap.

Thank you for the input, I just thought since the book I paid 30$ said
"The #1 Authority on Collectibles" and 19th edition and "Racing Collecitbles Price
Guide" 4.7 Million Prices and Complete Checklist for every driver.

It would have had what it advertised....silly me. Thing's huge but kinda worthless.
Some little tid bits like when I looked up a Dale SR card I found, didn't realize it was a prototype until I flipped it over....but the print is so tiny I need a magnifying glass to read this book.

Your welcome and I swear I am not being a smart butt. They assume that most people buying know that beckett does price guides for cards. They use the word collectibles because its less lettering than racing trading cards and diecast cars and haullers.

It does have what it states though thats why they put 4.7 million prices and complete checklist separate. There would be more money spent on ink than what some of the cards are worth so ne need in putting the prices for every card.

if its a early prototype the prices arent much different than a regular card previews are worth more, the beckett samples less and the prototypes almost a joke on todays standards

one old price guide tried to list the driver handouts but thats almost beyond impossible now.
