Since everyone loves PSA and it's easy I'll just link and use them: https://www.psacard.com/priceguide/b...play-ball/1111

In a 7, everything over $500:
DiMaggio $19,000 (high, commons 20% more)
Williams $4,000
Reese $3,250 (Rookie card boost, high with commons 20% more)
Foxx $1,000
Gomez $650 (last card in set boost, high with commons 20% more)
Greenberg $600
Ott $545

Is Williams being 600% more than Hank Greenberg undervalued? Is being 400% more than Foxx undervalued? No. The outlier is that Dimaggio is heavily overpriced relative to performance. Just like Mantle, people say basically every single big player is undervalued because they are comparing to Mantle. The problem is the single outlier.

Those aren’t correct prices. You cant use the price guide.

Dimaggio: $18-19k up from $4k in 18-19
Williams: $7k in 2/23 up from $5-6k 2021 and $2-3k 18-19 but few have traded
Greenberg: $1900 3/21 last trade, was $800 20/21 and $500 prior
Foxx: $700 last in 20/21, few traded non recently
Reese: $3500 2/21 and $2300 2020
