Free at last! Topps buybacks

[Archive]

Posted By: Martin Neal

I always try to buy the card not the holder even as it applies to the buybacks. I am probably giving away a few secrets here but I cut them out to send to Psa for grading. I have purchased several t205s in the 30 dollar range that have graded ex. including a Fred Clarke. I also have cut out a T206 Dolly Stark that I paid $97.00 for that graded an ex. I have the t205 and the t206 sets on the registry.
On a side note, I once purchased on ebay a t206 buyback of Oldring fielding and the sleeve contained two cards. It was very hard to see. I kept it for about a year but the curiousity was killing me. I finally cut it out and it was another Oldring fielding. That's the closest I will ever come to opening a tobacco pack to find an original t206.
