JimCrandellThe pop reports may not be accurate but they are an excellent gauge of relative rarity in high grade in the most popular pre-war and in all 50s and 60s mainstream sets.
The pop of a card is the number one driver of value. Look at the T206s--the price of psa 8s in auction is directly correlated to the pop.
In the mainstream 50s and 60s sets, all have cards that are a lot tougher than others. Why does a 62T Landrum in psa 8 go for more than a Mantle? It all reflects the pop.
Earlier in my career when I would argue that a stock shouldn't be trading where it was to a portfolio manager he would say "tell it to the market".
For those of you who think that the pops provide little if any value, "tell it to the market". Obviously it thinks differently.
