Selling Guide
Where to Sell
Best sold as part of a New York Mets team set on eBay, or in bulk/lots at local card shows. Individual sales are rarely profitable due to shipping costs.
Selling Tips
Do not grade this card unless it is absolutely flawless (potential PSA 10 candidate) and intended for a registry collector. Use an eBay Standard Envelope to keep shipping costs under $1.00 for the buyer.
