Selling Tips
Due to the low individual value of raw 1980s common and rookie cards, it is not economically viable to grade this card with PSA or BGS unless submitting as part of a bulk value submission. Best sold raw individually for a couple of dollars or grouped into an 1988 Fleer team set or rookie lot.
