3.0 out of 5 stars Okay for mainstream cards...but not for even semi-specialty collections, March 1, 2010

My wife purchased this book for me to look up my football cards from my youth. I was excited to receive it as I used to own beckett magazines as a teen to look up the prices of my cards. The problem soon became apparent, this is by no means a complete listing of prices and doesn't even come close to allowing me to look up prices for even a quarter of the cards I have. I'm sure it is okay for mainstream collections of brands such as Topps and UpperDeck but when it comes to even smaller collections of Topps specialty cards you won't be able to find them in this book, just keep that in mind.

3.0 out of 5 stars Ok for mainstream cards!!!!, January 2, 2011

This book is great for because it gives your prices for multiple card companies back many years for those of us that have been collecting for a while. The problem is that those card companies made many spin off sets each year and those are not listed here. Get what you pay for!
