For Discussion: Relative Values of T206 and T205

Based on my limited knowledge of the market, it looks like oldcardboard.com is off the mark when they show T205 commons worth twice that of T206.

Whaddayathink a fair relative value (same condition) is particularly towards the bottom of the spectrum (G-VG) if that makes a difference?

I'd also be interested in relative values of T206 commons vs T206 Southern Leaguers.

That used to be the case, but I've switched to t205s because I can get better looking t205 that t206s for the same price. Beat to crap t206s are going for $15. I can get a decent t205 with one or two minor creases for the same price and I've gotten a few crease free t205s for $20-25.

Would you say it's gone from 2:1 in favor of T205 (as oldcardboard indicates) to 1:2?

Chuck,

T206 commons:T206 southern leaguers = about 1:3 pricewise.

Used to be about 1:2 or 1:2.5 but southern leaguer prices have outpaced common prices recently--which is no small feat given the rise in common prices.
