Hockey cards worth?

Question

Hello i was wondering what some of my hockey cards are worth today? My dad bought me some cards when i was born and was wondering what they are worth today. I have 2 Wayne Gretzky rookie cards which we bought for $800 each in 1991. I also have 5 Eric lindros rookie cards, a patrick roy rookie card, a joe sakic rookie card, 2 mario lemuiex rookie cards, a billy randford rookie card and a complete set of 1990-1991 o-pee chee cards. All cards are in glass cases and are PERFECT condition the set is still in its original box and was never opened. I was wondering if you could tell me aprox. what these cards would be worth today or could you tell me a site that could tell me plz. thank you very much

Answer 1

It depends on the brand of cards that they are. O-pee-chee cards are worth more than topps.

If you ever want to sell them , do your homework. Check beckett.com and ebay to see what type of money they are bringing.

Answer 2

get all of the cards professionally graded because someone won't buy them for that much without a COA (Certificate of Authenticity) and it being professionally graded.

Answer 3

The Patrick Roy rookie card is probably not worth much.  I'd probably wipe my *** with that one and hang on to the rest.

Answer 4

WOW! I can't believe you have those! I don't know the prices of those cards now but check ebay it helps out. Well I hate to say this the only price guide for hockey cards is http://www.beckett.com/ (For a price, which is unreasonable). Good luck selling.

Answer 5

I would say the Gretzky rookies could have been bought cheaper. I bought a mint one for $400 and I pulled a Mario Lemuiex rookie out of a $1 pack :-). The Sakic I would price at $25. Each Lindros I would price at $50. The Roy I would price at $350. I would not price the OPC set very high except for the fact that it would probably contain rookies of Jaromir Jagr, Mats Sundin, and Ed Belfour. Maybe $80. The Gretzkys I would price at $450 each. I would advise that you get them graded so you can see how mint they really are. That would affect their price considerably.
