Mini Sets -- Worth More as a Group or Individually?

[Belfast1933]

I would think they’d definitely be worth more individually…. Just like full sets vs breaking up and selling cards one by one.

If I were buying all 3, I would ask for a discount from the sum of the 3 cards, for sure.

(Great cards, btw! Always cracks me up to see how scrawny Evers was - couldn’t the artist have painted with with a just a little more buff??&#128514

In general, cards sell better as individuals. Your particular cards would sell better as a set IMO and probably get a premium. It's a popular trio, the grade and centering is matched perfectly, and they're just beautiful cards together.

Indicivually, agree with the above posters. Appeals to a wider market

A "set" this small - no question to me - individually.

Typically as individuals.
That said, these 3 with the 5 grades, Chicago, and all yellow back and grey uniform may actually do better as a set. Makes it easier for the purchaser to get 3 quality cards all one swoop and really, how often on here do we hear about folks "paying up" for the cards they want.
I don't know there is a steadfast correct answer. but these make a very nice set!!

I'd sell them separately. Some collectors might want just one of the cards, based on what they collect. Sometimes a partial set from a scarce set can sell well as a group, to a set collector.

+1. It's usually better to sell individually but not always.
