The most obvious items to consider when pricing baseball cards is the demand of the card, its scarcity, condition, player and team. Of course the year it was produced matters, and if it's a rookie card of a star player, then of course the value goes up. Beckett and Tuff Stuff are the leading guides in determining a cards' value, but often times a card is so rare that its open market value cannot be determined by these very same guides.

Pricing Baseball Cards - The Ins And Outs Of The Hobby

Pricing baseball cards can be a tricky endeavor, but with the help of online and offline price guides, as well as some help from eBay, learning the value of the cards in question shouldn't be too difficult.

Pricing baseball cards can also be much easier if you take a look at eBay. Depending on the card, you may very well find it going for auction. The advantage with this is that the final bidding price will usually represent the value that the card is selling for in a private trade. However, final eBay bidding prices shouldn't be taken as a rule of thumb.

The most popular pricing guides will list most of the newer card sets, but not every card will be listed. Common cards and semi-star cards will usually be priced as well as the rookies and higher value cards. Listing only some of the common cards saves a lot of space, as the common card values will basically be the same across the board.

If you're looking to make the baseball card trade as smooth as possible, the more information that can be acquired the better. Finding out the book value of a particular card is important, if the value is available in print. Cards that rarely see the light of day in the open marketplace will usually not have a book value, so it's a little more tricky to determine the true value of the card. The best thing to do in this situation is to get your card professionally graded.

Beckett produces bi-monthly guides for baseball cards and each has detailed information on prices from multiple years. Beckett's Online Price Guide may be the best single source online for pricing baseball cards. The guide provides collectors and traders with information on print runs and the occasional completed sale. Because there can be so many parallel versions of the same card the detailed information provided in Beckett's guide can be of immense help in fairly pricing baseball cards.

Baseball teams across the country give trophies and awards to the players, coaches, and team moms. How do you make sure that the awards presentation is the perfect event and within budget? How do you buy the right baseball trophies with figures and engraving?

The players, coaches, and Team Moms will treasure these baseball trophies and awards for years to come.

Decide what type of figure you are going to use on the baseball trophy. There are stationary baseball figures that can be placed on top of one column, multiple columns or a simple marble base. Both male and female baseball figures are available. Another popular option is a Tro Action figure. These baseball figures are poseable and can be placed in a variety of different active positions. It's a great alternative to the standard gold or silver trophy figure.

First, you need to gather the names of all of your players, coaches, and team moms. Figure out what you'd like to engrave on each of the baseball trophies and awards. The team name should be included, and possibly the name of the player. Are you going to give special trophies for MVP or another special title? If so, include that title on the baseball trophy.
