Price Guide for Fair Market Value

[commando]

I like the idea, Les, but like other price guides, it would have to be updated on a regular basis. One problem might be when a player's jersey or bat doesn't sell for several years... You'd be looking at a price that might be outdated the next time one of those items become available.

Once again, I like the concept but it would be a real labor of love for several people to keep it running.

It would probably be easier to put together a price guide for older pieces of equipment ( guys no longer active players).....As for current players would be difficult as the players and their equipment is like a stock. The value can go up and down fairly quickly based on players performance, charisma, supply-demand, etc....

Sorry if I'm not being clear, but I am not thinking of an exact price guide for each individual player. What I am suggesting is just a range of what people would pay for individual players or different categories of players. For example:

Jeff Bagwell jerseys - $1000-$1250
Jeff Bagwell batting gloves - $75-$250
Jeff Bagwell bat - $400-600
Jeff Bagwell hat - $100

Each person could contribute his favorite player and what fair market value is for that athlete. Or alternatively, someone could just give a range of values for superstars, minor stars, etc.
