[QUOTE=100backstroke;2070769]It is so hard to figure the value on a rare card that only goes for sale once once in a blue moon. If had to guess, The 1914 B.News Ruth doubt less than $5.Million - in todays market which is bonkers. Could go $10.M wouldn't surprise me.
Many of us here have 1 of 1, and 1 of less than 10 of some pretty decent stuff. How do we determine value in todays market? You could list it at first impression an obscene amount, might sell very quickly, could be leaving money on the table. Who knows. I guess consigning to a big auction (REA/Heritage) would be best bet, let the market decide.

Yes...valuations have become very difficult for cards rarely selling. It's comical to see price fluctuations of some cards on ebay...$5K this week...50K a week later asking prices. Prices change exponentially on any given day for no apparent reason. Always best to start high...you can't go back up!!!!!
Considering churchmans...shonens...and even sanellas are commanding decent coin these days and are starting to disappear into collections...soon there will be no available playing day ruth cards on ebay at any given time...kinda like once plentiful t206 cobbs and goudey ruths were a dime a dozen.
Balt news ruth would sell 5-10 mill imo.
