Neither card is my cup of tea. Both cards are interesting an appeal to their collector types.
I am just saying it feels like ground hogs day because every few months your item seams to pop up and then fades away to come back another day.

I wish you well with it.

If you really want to sell it and since as you say his items are hot, You should send it to an auction house and let it go for market value which perhaps will get you more then you are asking

He tried that in 2020. The card sold for $1320 in REA and he must've pulled it back.

Wow and thanks for the info. I did not know that and the “price” of that is a little surprising since that is when the cards started to spike so the item if special should have gone for a lot more.

for all u guys that like to guess at things u know notthing about but think u do - i have already turned down 8 grand on ebay and have basically put up the card for show. i have 3 big auction houses begging me for the card and whem i really want to sell it i will put it up. u guys should stop guessing about something u know nothing about but i guess u got nothing better to do but attempt to insult people. with me it wont work. have a nice life.

Hi Paul

‘Not trying to insult trying to understand.

Especially when I see it for sale so many times and for so long.

For me that usually means that either there is no demand for the item or the price is higher than people are willing to pay.

But if you have the auction houses begging you for it then you are in good shape and congrats although again if they want to sell it and you post it here for sale then I do not understand why you do not do it

theres nothing to understand - i simply put a card up for sale and if i get my price ill sell it - simple as that. i am in no hurry to sell a one of a kind robinson rookie card as it matches nicely with my highest graded pleetwood slacks card. when i get my price it will be sold and if i wanna give it to an auction house i will - WHEN IM READY. i will not respond to this nonsense anymore and dont have to justify what i do with my card just like i dont tell people what to do with their cards - this is sky king signing off

It is certainly a rare if not unique Jackie Robinson 1948 post card but it did sell for $1300 and change only two short years ago as already stated in this thread somewhere in an REA auction. I'm guessing you were the lucky winner at that time. Good for you. With two bidders who have to have it in a major auction, it may well bring $10K or more but it might bring $1K. REA did a great job of describing it and even speculated it might be unique and it still only brought the $1300 winning bid. However, you are correct that you can ask whatever you want for your item. The seller determines the price, not the buyer except in a real auction.
