Default PSA Graded 50s-60s; Mays, Cox RC, Ted Williams; Priced near or Below VCP Average

Well, my habit finally got too expensive, so I'm going to have to start dealing to support it. Have posted a little over at PSA's boards under username BRDSR for a little while, but have also changed in there to BINatVCP.

Chose this username because I'm tired of only being able to find cards at eBay auction or at a 50% markup over market price. I will never offer to sell at greater than 105% of the current VCP Average Price. Is VCP Average a perfect indicator of fair market value? Of course not. Is it the best, most objective indicator available? In my opinion, yes. My guarantee is that I will never offer cards at greater than 105% of VCP Average, and if a change in VCP Average makes my advertised price more than 105%, anybody who notifies me of that fact may purchase the card for precisely 105% of VCP Average.

I also recognize that photos and scans do not do cards justice. My guarantee is that I will always note conditions specific to a card (other than centering on front) which, in my subjective opinion, bear on its value. The condition may or may not affect the price at which I offer the card, but it will be noted. If your subjective opinion differs from my subjective opinion, I will accept refunds on every sale (see below).

My approach is going to be to move inventory quickly at a modest profit, continually reinvesting it and keeping a little profit to use to add to my personal collection. Should be fun for someone who enjoys the cards themselves, even if I have to ship 'em out in short order. To that end, the ten cards listed below are available for sale.

Please note that shipping is NOT included in the prices offered, and factor in $3.50 for the first card and $.50 for each card thereafter. In addition, all sales may be refunded for the full purchase price of the card, but buyer assumes the risk of shipping both ways (meaning that shipping cost will not be refunded, and buyer must pay to ship the card back to me). Finally, since I'm a new member, I'm willing to do a 50/50 deal with established board members to reduce their risk. Buyer pays 50% of purchase price, I ship the cards, and buyer pays the balance when the cards arrive.

Hope ya'll find something you like. PM me or send an e-mail to binatvcp@gmail.com if interested.

-1969 Topps #237 Bobby Cox PSA 8.5 - $95.00 (95% of VCP Average). Gorgeous...could consider submitting for a bump to PSA 9. Looks better than the two 1969 Topps PSA 9 cards below, IMO.
-1969 Topps #39 Dick Hughes PSA 9 - $22.50 (88% of VCP Average). Has barely noticeable discoloration along left front border.
-1969 Topps #632 Jon Warden PSA 9 - $41.00 (87% of VCP Average). Looks like a little rough cut on left border print smudge/spots (I think) in pink circle.
-1957 Topps #70 Richie Ashburn PSA 6 - $16.50 (82% of VCP Average).
-1954 Topps #89 Howie Pollet PSA 6.5 - $14.00 (95% of VCP Average). Solid 6.5 on front; effects of rough cut on right edge are apparent on green border of back.
-1954 Topps #197 Schoolboy Rowe PSA 6.5 - $23.00 (87% of VCP Average). Similar to Pollet.
-1954 Topps #83 Joe Collins PSA 6 - $15.00 (98% of VCP Average). Similar to Pollet.
-1961 Topps #579 Willie Mays All Star PSA 6 - $63.00 (95% of VCP Average). Good looking 6, IMO. Obviously somewhat OC, but not a big detractor due to newspaper background of card.
-1961 Topps #408 Mathewson PSA 8 - $28.00 (78% of VCP Average).
-1959 Fleer T. Williams #19 1942 Triple Crown PSA 8 - $18.00 On Hold(77% of VCP Average).
-1959 Fleer T. Williams #47 1953 Crash Lands PSA 8 - $17.00 (82% of VCP Average). Registration appears to be slightly off.
