Default How accurate is this T206 base price-guide?

Posted By: Scott

Their site is a great starting point for novice t206 collectors, but any "facts" and "data" should be taken with a grain of salt.

I would always go to the SCBC first for price guidelines, then tweak based on your own knowledge of the current market.

We once debated here whether or not a newsletter should be put in email, web-site, or printed format. My argument for print format is that it induces more accountability. Web-sites can easily be made to look believable, but in many cases have next to zero credibility. I think that when Art and Doug publish their t206 book the t206museum will be forced to do a major overhaul or risk becoming totally obsolete - this would kill their main purpose which seems to be to to buy cards cheap from novices who contact them with questions.

BTW - if you ever ask t206museum a question about a card you have, and their response is to ask you how much you want for it, put it on ebay or post it here instead.
