T206CollectorI am sure you have run the numbers to determine your price threshold. My only point was made by your example -- now that you offer free SGC card values, your friend who purchased the SGC 88 1934 Goudey Foxx would not have needed to pay for his membership to save any money. Also, if a comparably graded Foxx had sold on ebay in the past few weeks, a quick check of ebay's completed items folder would have given him an understanding of the most recent sales of that card. Moreover, for the collector that is dropping thousands or dealer that is selling thousands, this site is an absolute must for this cost -- it obviously makes total sense. But for those of us that spend a few hundred a month, or less, it provides a useful tool as a free SGC service, with little or no incentive to upgrade to VIP membership.
Finally, I hope that my comments do not detract from my 100% endorsement of your site as the most accurate baseball card price guide in history. I was merely offering you one collector's opinion to use as you may (or not) in going forward.
