Did I get ripped off?

For 16 dollars, I got a 2007 Jarrod Parker Tristar Prospects Plus graded card, Gem Mint 10, a Javy Lopez Game Used Jersey Card, an Albert Pujols card (just regular card), a Daisuke Matsuzaka rookie card (Topps 2007), a pack of 2008 Upper Deck Series 1, an Eric Byrnes Pacific Rookie Card (it says 29/36 on it), and a 33 card set of something called a K-Mart Collectors' Edition, with an assortment of star players from 1989.

    For all of that it doesn't seem like it, although I have no idea about the worth of any of them. But its only 16 dollars so even if you did get ripped off, wasn't that bad.

    First of all, for those that said only the Pujols card is worth anything, you couldn't be more wrong. Of the things on this list, the Pujols card is probably worth the least.

    Actually I have that K-Mart set. Heavy stock, bright glossy photos? Right? I believe that has a Griffey Jr. rookie card in it. That set is probably worth about $5 in good condition.

    The fact that the Parker card is graded increases its value simply because $10 has already been spent to grade it. Hopefully its from a good grading company. Is that the autographed card. There is an ungraded one selling on ebay right now for $7. With a gem mint 10, that card is probably about $15.

    The game used Lopez is nice, but nothing special. Maybe about $4. The Topps Dice-K is also worth very little. Just a regular Topps card isn't worth very much, especially for a pitcher, maybe 50 cents.

    The pack of UD is about $2. Maybe you'll get lucky and pull something cool.

    It's hard to say about the Byrnes card. He is one of those guys who had "rookie cards" in sets from 1999, 2000 and 2001. The fact that it's serial numbered out of 36 is good though. Probably $2 for that alone.

    So all told:

    Jarrod Parker - we'll say $10 at this point

    Javy Lopez - $4. Probably couldn't sell it for more, but if you like Lopez then keep it. Jersey cards are just kind of cool to have.

    Albert Pujols - without knowing set or year impossible to say. Maybe 50 cents

    Dice-K rookie - once again, the Topps isn't worth much. 50 cents

    Upper Deck Pack - $2

    Eric Byrnes rookie - $2

    K-Mart set - $5

    All told, about $24 buck. Here's what you do. Start rooting for Jarrod Parker and hope he becomes a stud. If he does, that card will be worth $80-$100 in 5 years. If not, it will be worth about $2.

    Fair deal, and you have some upside in it.

    The K-Mart cards are pretty much worthless. The Daisuke card may be worth something down the road but you never know. You best source is Beckett's Guide

    You probably paid too much. Only the Pujols card would be worth anything. The good news is all you lost was $16.00.

  • How do you think about the answers? You can sign in to vote the answer.
  • you can try searching for the prices on ebay and see if they add up to $16. or good "trading card value" and find a site that can help determine the value of the cards.
