Marvel Comic Cards from the 1990's exploding? 0

[spidermanbeyond]

I loved these Marvel Impel cards from 1990 when I was a kid and I think so did everyone else:  Thought these videos were interesting:

I had someone offer me what I thought was silly money for the 1994 Fleer Spider-Man set. I have the 150 card base set, as well as the large-size cards (un-cut single-card sheets of the nine trading-size cards), and the plastic see-through rare's. I'm not selling, but I thought it was crazy these are suddenly valuable. I wonder what I could get for my unopened & on card Marvel stamp set...

Everything is exploding due to nostalgia .   Have to see how high this market will go.  Good time to sell if you need the money.

People are paying 1k+ for PSA 10s. I'm somewhat tempted to send some of my cards to PSA (I have 2 complete sets of series 1 and 2) but with the current turnaround time, who knows what the market will be by the time you get it back from grading.

Hey, anyone wants to pay me $20k for my Funko Pop's, I'm willing to sell; but I think I'll hold on to the comics and cards for a while.

Good time to sell before the Marvel Card and Deadpool rookie card census explodes in 8 months. 12 Impel Marvel cards /pack or 11 cards plus 1 holo, I think.

100% agree with the sell now approach.

The PSA census is low now and will see a hockey stick increase given how many people are submitting recently and in the days ahead.Of course, if you have a card that looks centered with sharp edges and a super clean surface...submit it via regular or express PSA tier so you can get it back in 4-5 weeks and sell for top $$$

plus, the 1990s trading cards were produced IN MASS...sell your raw cards during this peak demand period.

Yeah, sadly is just the same old, same old...................I guess the old pump and dump game keeps finding new opportunities and new willing suckers who are more than happy to dig deep down into their pockets.

Any chance of injecting some life into those all-chromium GA classic comic cover cards from the 90's for GA books which nobody here could dream of ever buying?

I am still waiting for my Todd McFarlane rookie baseball card to spike up in value $$. No luv for the DC Comic Heroes 'rookie' cards even though they have a lower print run than Impel Marvel 1990, 1991? $50 to slab a card then pump and dump.

Yeah, I guess it's starting to look like the CGC pump and dump game with respect to the slabbing of "common as dirt" MA books that just hit the shelves of the LCS's last week, and yet the day traders or flippers seem to have no problem finding fresh meat to feed on.

4 to 5 weeks? I thought the turnaround is a lot longer than that.

Guys on youtube say it 9 months to 1 year at the low tier for PSA.   I hope CGC never becomes like this.

The value and Econ tiers are taking 7+ months (in most cases, longer). Grading per card ranges from $12 to $20 depending if modern or ultra modern. 

the regular tier = $50/card

express tier = $75/card 

The regular and express tier turn around times are ranging from. 4 to 5 weeks.

I forgot I found this album in the bottom of a cardboard box of comics I bought last month, I nearly threw it away. 

Am I rich now??! 🤣

I'll let this whole album go for ONLY 5 grand! No fighting over dibs!

I don't understand the hype behind the 1990 set and why everyone's saying those are the rookie cards. Did everyone forget about the marvel sets Topps put out in the late 70s? I understand saying the Hulk181 is a rookie card (of a comic book? seriously?) but ,most of these characters appeared on cards long before the 90s.
