What's a good site to figure out what my 25yr sports card collection is worth?

Maybe I can sell off enough to poon a little. Thanks

Check what similar collections are going for on eBay and CL.

Ebay is probably your best bet

www.beckett.com - this will give you an idea of the value to collectors. As said above if you want to know what it will actually sell for then probably eBay.

There are a lot of price guides out there. I use the PSA one.

If you actually plan to sell cards, you will get a little less than book value, probaby 20-30% less

While I don't collect sportscards I DO dabble in comics and have found that Ebay is the best indicator of what things are ACTUALLY selling for. (Used to be a pretty hardcore seller up until a few years ago before Ebay/Paypal fees and Canada Post greed put me out of business.

These days Guides are wishful thinking books because the back issue comic book market has been depressed for years and only the premium, hard to find stuff is getting anywhere near guide value. Everything else you're pretty lucky to get 30-50% of guide.

I do have a few friends with feet in both markets and say conditions are pretty similar.
