I sold a few of my psa 8 and 7 doubles... and the drop if is crazy in price...... Why such a big difference when half the 7's could get 8's

    Jayson> Without knowing what it is you were selling, I can only say that the market is usually down some during the summer and picks up again in the fall and winter. If you want a less general answer, we'll need more specifics of your situation.

    Are you talking about vintage or modern? I don't think anyone collects modern 7's.

    No i meant in vintage... I have 7's that look just as good as 8's.. they will get 7 dollars as a 8 will get 40 dollars it is crazy to me..

    it is simple ecconomics.
    supply and demand.

    There are more 7's than 8's in almost any card graded.
    and
    There are more people collecting sets in 8 than in 7.

    therefore, most people would rather have the rarer card
    regardless of whether it "looks just like the 8" or not,
    especially if they are involved in the PSA Registry - because
    of the card weighting and rankings.
