Worthpoint + Sources for Comps on Tickets

[tjisonline]

Hey Ryan. The only options we ticket collectors have currently are Card Ladder to some degree (as. Don pointed out) and worthpoint. Worthpoint is pretty good for tickets because it pulls in data from more auction houses.

I was about to DM Nat Turner or Chris / Josh (from CL) if they plan on introducing Ticket Ladder (ha) or ensure CardLadder pulls in more ticket sales.

I ask because I am now collecting tickets and I am having trouble finding comps. Worthpoint may be one solution (rather than searching many AH archives).

Ticket collectors -- how/where do you find Comps?

Thanks

Tom D. recently shared this Top 100 list with me. Although I may not totally agree with the actual rankings (and maybe a few things missing, i.e. "Jackie Robinson Steals Home" 1955 WS), it’s a wonderful resource & roadmap for ticket collectors, both beginners and advanced. Created by Howard, Shaun, and Mike. (Instagram: @top100tickets) https://www.instagram.com/top100tickets

The Aaron debut stub in the recent Goldin auction hit 36k. I think that would bump a few off the top 10.

lol. I won that! Not sure if it’s top 10, but it’s pretty beast, I think.

TJ, thank you for the info. Seems like Worthpoint may be worth the investment

I haven't found any comprehensive source for ticket comps.

Another one that may have some value is https://130point.com. It is similar to an ebay search engine but it pulls in some catalog auctions as well. It will also reveal the paid price for ebay Best Offer sales.

I participated in that Top 100 ticket poll that Michael posted. It was conducted at the end of 2022/beginning of 2023. There was no guidance - everyone was free to use their own rationale for ranking. No doubt that there would be some shifting if it were redone today. Value played a role in the rankings, but there are tickets that have since sold for six figures that don't show up on the list. The 1934 Masters Tournament ticket is one. Only four known and one is in the Augusta Golf Club. One sold for $600K in 2022 and an autographed one sold for $470K in 2023.
