    Need Help Selling

    Im looking to sell some of my best cards and im looking for some advice on the best way to go about it. Off the top of my head, one card im looking to sell is my Ben Roethlisberger Topps Draft Picks Class Marks auto priced on beckett.com at $200. Is there like a percentage of the book value that I should be asking for? Any help would be appreciated.

    here is a good site for upcomming shows:

    as far as selling, ebay always works. however, many factors go into being able to get the most value out of your cards there. your feedback is very key, hard to get top dollar for high end cards without having built up feedback first. good scans are a must anytime you are selling something the customer cant handle first hand. keep your shipping prices fair.

    there really is no percent you can expect on average. really depends on the time of the year, player, players collectibility, etc. best thing to do is search ebay for completed auctions similar to what you want to sell. that will let you decide if thats the kind of money you are willing to accept for your card

    With that roethlisberger i would wait until he had one really good week or couple of weeks so that people would pay a lot more...like romo ect...

    bens a bit different than romo though.....ben's already a "veteran" in the league, tony was getting his first starts. it takes ALOT to make an established veterans cards rise significantly on the market, ie LT. also remember the year ben had last year (led the league in picks) and is dealing with a new coaching staff. dont see ben having any kind of a "break out season" this year.

    his spx autos are selling for about 70% book right now, not too bad. i think bens cards have more of a chance to drop on the open market than rise this season....just my opinion
