Selling Part of Collection-Which Sets Should I Drop? T202, T205, 33 Goudey, 34 Goudey

[ronniehatesjazz]

So, I need to sell a good chunk of my collection for a down payment. I collect a little bit of everything but have been really focusing on 4 sets as of late (T202, T205, 33 Goudey, 34 Goudey). I have decided to just focus on two of them and would like your guys inputs on which ones you would pursue. I pretty much have the same % completed on each set and similar amounts of key cards in each. Which of the two sets would you guys keep at it and which two would you sell?

You should keep the ones you enjoy the most, but if it were me I'd for sure keep the 1933 Goudey set going. One of the most classic sets IMO with the GOAT having 4 cards

I like the 33 Goudey set and the T205---34 Goudey doesn't have Ruth--and I find at shows the T202's are not popular now---Good Luck

[Stampsfan]

My favorites would be the T205 and the 33.

Goudey.... Keep the Ts

[KMayUSA6060]

I'd sell '34 Goudey and the T202s.

Keep 1933 Goudey and the T205s.


Good luck with the down payment!

I'd sell the T205 s and the 1934 Goudeys. The T202 is cool and has multiple Cobbs. The 1933 set has multiple Ruths.

I would sell any cards that i could come up with a price that they would sell for at market or what i could send to an auction.

All too many times people ask about selling their cards, not saying that is happening here...and sort of want a 'make me sell' type of offer....and they dont list a price and just take offers...and ultimately dont sell any cards..

getting out of the hobby guys do this....or guys selling for a 'friend'.....

Only thing I would say is that I'd keep one set from each decade.

[ronniehatesjazz]

Thanks for the replies gents. Still debating on what to do but for sure will be getting rid of the 34 Goudey's. Still trying to decide between T202 and T205 for the other one.

[rats60]

I echo the 33 Goudey and t205. Those are the two that I am collecting.

[Econteachert205]

As much as I love 05s and 02's there is a lot of redundancy there so I'd sell some of them.

33 Goudey - by far my favorite
T202- perhaps only collect one of each sub panel
T205
34 Goudey


Good Luck!

For purely selfish reasons I want you to keep the Goudeys and sell me any T cards I need from T202 and T205.

But my honest opinion is keep going on 1933 goudey and T202. But only if you have the funds to finish 1933 Goudey. If not I'd stick with the two T sets.

[kmac32]

How complete is your T205 set? Would probably be the easiest to move in my opinion if you need fast cash. This is especially true if you have interesting back types. I for one have a T205 Cubs reverse collection and many others collect T205.
