eBay, COMC (Check Out My Cards), or local card shops. Due to the low individual value of a modern base card, selling as part of a player lot or on COMC is often the most cost-effective approach.
Selling Tips
Do not grade this card, as grading fees ($20+) far exceed the potential graded market value. List raw using clear keywords like 'Mike Trout 2021 Topps Series 2 Base Card #300'. Ship securely in a penny sleeve and top loader inside a standard envelope (PWE) with cardboard reinforcement, or group it into a lot to maximize shipping efficiency.
