Posted By: <b>Brian Weisner</b><p>Commons usually bring 3x-4x, and Hofers and short prints command around 2x. Most back collectors prefer to purchase vg+ or better cards without creases, so lesser condition cards may not bring more than a 2x mulitplier. be well brian

Posted By: <b>runscott</b><p>although I recently sold a PSA 3 Matty portrait brown Hindu for about $440. I bought a vgex Powers (short print) for $91 and thought I had gotten a great deal.<BR><BR>Brian didn't mention Hindu SL'ers, but I think they should get about 20 times book <img src="/images/happy.gif" height=14 width=14>

Posted By: <b>Brian Weisner</b><p>SHHHHHHHHH! <BR> As you know Scott I collect Sler's with Hindu backs, and would like to buy as many as I can at a decent price. I would think 8-12 times would be more realistic than 20, atleast until my set is finished. <BR>As usual, it's hard to get anything past this group.<BR> later brian

Posted By: <b>Brian Weisner</b><p>T206 MUSEUM LIST COMMONS AT 20X AND SPECIAL CARDS AT 5X. I PERSONALLY THINK THE RED HINDU'S ARE UNDERVALUED, BUT RECENT EBAY AUCTIONS HAVE PROVED OTHERWISE. SEVERAL NICE RED HINDU'S HAVE FAILED TO MEET REASONABLE RESERVES IN THE PAST 6 MONTHS, INCLUDING THE KLEINOW BOSTON HINDU I ALMOST PULLED THE TRIGGER ON. TIME WILL TELL. WHAT COLOR OF RED WINE MAKES THE BROWN HINDU TURN RED? MERLOT? CABERNET? PINOT? OR MADDOG 20/20? I'LL STICK WITH LONGNECKS.<BR> LATER BRIAN
