Tough call. Certainly keep one. The rest I'd probably sell and split the money three ways evenly: other cards; charity; kids' college. A boring answer, but the truth. But oh the fun I would have buying the other cards!

I would keep one for the PC and sell the other 6, or sell 5 of them and give one away randomly in a "Random Act of Cardness"

wow, I bet the owners of the other 15 that are estimated to exist are bummed that their value may be temporarily affected...

Cool story.
If the Wagner has a known population of 50 to 60 cards, then I doubt that increasing the known population of the Cobb card from 15 to 22 will significantly drop its value. It is still a census item. It may actually increase the value, as measured by the 'last sale method'. Now, up to seven people with more money than they know what to do with can buy one of these cards that would have otherwise not come to market for who knows how many years.

I would trade one for a working car. Our Jeep, a 1994 Grand Cherokee, has been disabled for months and has spent more time in the shop than on the road over the past 5 years. At this point when/if we do get it fixed, we won't trust it to go farther than we can walk home from (Something that we have had to do more than once when it stopped in random places)
-------------------------------
VERY slow trading due to health problems. Not transferrable so safe to trade with, just moving is painful and can't always access the cards.

If they are all the same version, I'd keep the highest graded one and sell off the rest one-by-one, starting with the lowest graded card. I'd use the earnings to get other cards that I needed.

I would keep one, sell the rest. Or maybe put one on my TCDB trade list, just to see how many wantlists it would match up with. For all I know, some big time collectors might be members of our site!
-------------------------------
I'm going to reevaluate how I collect after the new year. It's just getting way too expensive for the new stuff. Sometimes I just want to buy a pack, not a whole box or even blaster. |

I think our T206 checklist needs some major work, by the way.

am I the only one who finds this stash suspect ? Only 7 cards and then they are ALL Cobbs ? HHHMMMM
-------------------------------
Got my collection kind of split up in 3 places in two seperate states. So I am willing to trade but might take me a bit to find the cards from my Trade / Sell list. So please message me first so that I can take some time to find the cards you would be interested in. Whether it's an hour or 2 months or etc. I would get back to you after locating the card or cards. |
