I would say the VCP is the closest thing to an accurate hobby guide we will ever get, since it pulls data from actual eBay sales (and no, I don't work at VCP). Here are a few results from my latest graded football cards auction (all started at $9.99) and the corresponding VCP average. Yes you will see price swings - some in your favor and some not. Good luck! Rob
