Cleaning out and going through things, hint hint, look at my classifieds!!!
Anyways, I found my boxed up Pokémon cards from the early 90s.
Put them up on Craigslist for $1200. A nicer person on there said I'm an idiot and gave me some advice not to sell as I apparently have some worth that alone.
Yes, 1 card or many that I have is worth some $1000-$5000 dollars!
I got all excited, up until I learned that in order for that value to exist, they must be appraised by a big time agency like PSA. With a PSA rating of 10 and a low population, it then can fetch those numbers.
Anyone do this card grading thing? It's something like $50-$250 PER CARD to appraise. Money I may not get back. It's essentially a chance I'd take, spending money to guess that my card could sell for more after appraised.
Apparently a few of the ones I got might be worthy to appraise. Im still not sold. If I could get $2000 as is I'd be A OK and call it a day.
Anyone who has gone through this please chime in!
Never thought these cards might be worth this much!
Seriously mind boggling…
