BrianI have to agree on the value of the cards. I think the population report can be somewhat deceptive though, if you check it out, #93 Del Pratt has only 4, and there are 3 (should be 2) on the pop report for SGC.
I do think that if you check out the cards that come up on eBay, there are really the same 20-30 cards that cycle through, and there are some that you NEVER see. Some high numbers, some low numbers. The PSA 2 Wagner that came up on eBay was probably an example of a card with glue residue that PSA automatically drops to a 2. I got stung by this a couple of times. My Mathewson is the one that hurt the most, I was hoping to get at least a 3, but alas, it came back a 2. The other that KILLED me was a Joe Jax '15, same thing glue residue (no paper loss).
I think that CJ collectors will get a good look at the market when the complete sets on REA go up. You can check out the 2 cards referenced above in the pictures for lot 16 and 467.
