Valuations
I am sorry but we are unable to give valuations on Brooke Bond cards, unless
it is something particulary rare! Everything you need to value your cards is
available on this site. All you need to do is go to the Card Sets page and you'll find prices
for every set issued with prices per card and per set. Album prices are also listed on a
seperate page, as are Wallcharts. If
you looking to sell your collection then please read on!
If your cards are glued into albums (usually designed for the set) this can
considerably devalue the set (and usually worth no more than £1 per
complete album!). There are some exceptions to this rule for some albums issued in the 1950's.
If you are looking to sell your collection I need to know the condition
which is very important. Descriptions given to cards condition include, Poor,
Fair, Good, Very Good, Excellent, Near Mint, Mint, and it goes on!
Poor Condition
Usually torn or creased cards, damage to picture or damage to reverse of
card, damaged (rounded) corners also if card is very dirty. If any of those
details are true to your cards, they are not particularly worth valuing and
near all dealers do not put this quality of card in their stock and sometimes
even throw away!
Good Condition
Showing a bit of age with only slight damage such as slightly damaged
corners (not quite 'sharp' corners), slight discolouration (but not stained),
but certainly not torn or creased. This will make the card worth valuing but
certainly not up to 'top' catalogue pricing.
Excellent Condition
This is what we want! Collectors are usually looking for this condition for
adding to or replacing cards in their collection. Cards need to be 'near mint',
looking nearly as good as the day they were printed.
Finally when asking for an offer please allow a few days for a reply. All
prices will be taken from Murrays current Cigarette Card Values catalogue.
So don't forget to tell me:
- Set Title
- Condition
