Help Needed - Going Prices for B18s?
 

Been offered a few B18s and not sure what the going prices are so I'm hoping a few might be able to help. While I don't have scans in hand, I've been told all are in EX+ condition. Those I've been offered include the following HOF'ers...

Cobb
Jackson (purple) (close enough to an HOF'er)
Johnson

Jon, I paid $145 for this one, raw, on ebay about a month or so ago.

Jon,

I watch Johnson B-18s, and they seem to go for in the same range as the Cobb--$130 to $150 for a well-centered clean one with little or no fraying.

Commons run in the 15 to 18 range, but can get into the low 20s if there are a couple chasers.

Thanks guys!

There are a few odd non-star players that regularly sell for more then the common colored Johnson and Cobb blankets.

Don't know who they are off-hand as I haven't been lucky enough to win any of those when they have popped up.

The Jackson usually goes between $700 and $800 at auction in EX + condition. I have been out bid at numerous auctions at this price. Luckily I picked one up on EBAY last week with a BIN of $400. It turned out to be really nice. So I was extremely happy. The prices above are pretty acurate. The different color combinations determine value as much as any thing else.
