True rookie cards of Hall of Famers and superstars. But condition is everything. A Tom Brady 2000 Playoff Contenders rookie in PSA 10 gem mint condition sold for over $3 million. More common: numbered parallels, autographs, and patch cards of current stars. Cowboys cards, especially vintage ones, hold special value in Dallas.
90s football cards are hit or miss. Base cards from 1990-1994 were massively overproduced (the "junk wax" era). But there are exceptions: 1990 Pro Set Emmitt Smith rookie, 1991 Brett Favre rookies, and rare inserts like 1998 Playoff Momentum "Red Zone" cards. Also, late 90s Chrome refractors and parallels can be valuable. Text us photos and we'll sort through what you have.
Look for "RC" logo on the front and check the year. True rookies are from a player's first NFL season. But be careful: some products release years later with "rookie cards" that aren't true rookies. Also, some brands have multiple versions - Prizm silver prizm is the true rookie, while base Prizm is less valuable. Text us photos at 972-573-4990 and we'll identify what you have.
Huge difference in value. NFL uniform cards (especially with team logos) are almost always more valuable than college uniform cards. The exception is high-end products like National Treasures that feature college patches or autographs from star players. Generally, collectors want to see players in their pro uniforms.
Only if they're high-value cards ($200+ raw value) AND in excellent condition. Grading costs $20-50 per card and takes months. We can tell you which cards would benefit from grading. For most collections, it's better to sell raw to us and let the next owner grade them if they choose.
Yes, but at reduced prices. A creased vintage card might still be valuable to someone completing a set. Water damage, writing, tape residue - these all hurt value but don't necessarily make cards worthless. Always text us photos before throwing anything away.
Numbered parallels (especially low numbers like /10, /25), autographs (on-card rather than sticker), and rare inserts (Downtown, Kaboom, Color Blast). Panini Prizm silver prizms are the standard for modern rookies. Optic holos and Select parallels also hold value well. We track all these markets daily.
Absolutely. Local team bias is real in card collecting. A Dak Prescott rookie might sell for 10-15% more in Dallas than in other markets. Vintage Cowboys like Roger Staubach, Tony Dorsett, and Troy Aikman have strong local demand. We connect these cards with local collectors who pay premium prices.
Serial numbers! If you see something like "25/99" or "1/10" that means it's a numbered parallel and likely valuable. Also look for authentication holograms on autographs, and check for any printing errors (misprints can sometimes be valuable). Text us photos of both front and back for the best appraisal.
We check recent sold prices on eBay (not asking prices), current dealer buy lists, auction results, and our knowledge of what local Dallas collectors are paying. We factor in condition, rarity, player performance, and market trends. Then we make a fair cash offer that allows us to make a small profit while giving you more than you'd get after eBay fees and shipping hassles.
Complete vintage sets can be very valuable, especially if they're in good condition. 1976 Topps, 1981 Topps, 1984 Topps - these have key rookie cards and are sought after by set collectors. We'll examine the condition of the key cards and make an offer for the complete set. Don't break it up before getting an appraisal.
