re: MSB Sports Card and Memorabilia Thread

So question for the card geeks here.
I inherited a bunch of old baseball and football cards from the 50s that are in really good condition. I'm thinking about selling them. What's the best way to do this?
I don't have any complete sets but they are about 50-80% complete. Should I try to sell/trade duplicates and other cards to complete certain sets under the theory that it would be easier to sell a complete set?
What are the opinions on grading companies? Legit or waste of money?
Should I send off the high value cards to PSA to get graded to benchmark the overall condition of the cards and hope I get lucky with a few high grades?
Is eBay a good place to sell or should I look elsewhere?

You could sell lots or “starter sets” on eBay. I think eBay gets you to the widest audience if you’re selling. As for grading and whatnot, I’ll let the others chime in.

You can find estimated values on PSA's website.
130point will let you search for history of actual sales of a card but I'm not sure about cards that old.
I'd post photo arrays of each sport separately on baseball and football cards reddit and ask for advice. Heads love this kind of story and you will get some solid advice.
Will also find data on ebay vs auction vs consignment.
You might even be lucky with some of these being high end items that can be sent to Goldin and skipping the wait on getting graded and slabbed.
Congrats on the hit.
