Selling Guide
Where to Sell
eBay (as part of a team lot), COMC (Check Out My Cards), or local card show 'dollar boxes'. Not recommended for individual auction due to shipping costs vs. card value.
Selling Tips
Do not grade this card, as the cost of grading will range from $19-$40, which is significantly more than the card’s market value. Best sold as part of a 1990s Texas Rangers team lot or a complete 1992 Stadium Club set. Use 'Plain White Envelope' (PWE) shipping for low-value sales to keep costs down.
