Are all higher end nice eye appeal cards (let’s say valued 10,000 dollars and above) just going straight to Auction Houses for sale and not even being considered selling privately?
I tend to think so. Consider this…. You want a 1933 Goudey Ruth, card 144, graded 7. You have the means to buy it (it’s a 6 figure card). I don’t think in this day and age you could buy that card privately. I think most collectors and sellers see the auction house prices and are automatically drawn to them.
Now maybe the above card example is extreme, but I think it goes for higher end cards closer to that 10k mark as well. Am I way off base here? I would love to hear thoughts/experiences on this topic. |
High end cards are VERY available privately including a PSA 8 Ruth (see attached scan). You can see a bunch of other cards for sale here:
