Where to Sell
Bulk lots on eBay, local garage sales, or as a 'throw-in' for team set collectors. It is not worth selling individually on high-end platforms.
Selling Tips
Do not grade this card. To maximize value, include it in a large lot of 1990 Donruss cards or a Seattle Mariners team set. Shipping should be via Plain White Envelope (PWE) to keep costs below the card's actual worth.
