I was able to start off my back run by purchasing a lot of about 25 from a board member here a few years ago. They were all SGC graded in the 35-50 range and we agreed on $1 per "graded point". So, an SGC 50 was $50, an SGC 45 was $45, etc. you get the idea. However, I paid more for individual cards after buying that lot. Conor's estimates seem about right.
Keep in mind that there are popular players/stars that PCL collectors collect. For example, there's a PCL HOF, some players that made it to the majors, and some that can be found in the T206 set and those may carry a premium. Also with the T212-2's, there are around 5 back slogans that can be tough. I think there's enough people trying to complete a back run that will make those sell for crazy prices sometimes. I know I paid up for a couple to complete my run.
