First, thank you to all for your solid opinions. I value you them greatly and they has enlightened me. I am more of a modern collector, so when I stumbled upon these pre-war cards, I really didn't know what I was looking at. Anyway, I am going to move forward with a deal to obtain the cards. Hopefully I can get the right price. The seller seems fair and understands the condition of the cards shall drive the price, not some “book value.”
Second, I have a follow up question. As a modern collector, I have used PSA and BGS for my card grading needs. I went to PSA a lot because I used to get great rates for bulk orders (1000+ cards submitted at once for grading = $4 per card). For BGS, I went to them anytime I needed a thick relic card graded because I hate the PSA oversized holders for large relics. Anyway, I have heard SGC may be the best company for grading when dealing with pre-war cards in order to max long term value. So…
-What are your opinions here on this issue?
-What company would you recommend for grading if the goal is to max out long term value?
Thank you again.
