Nolan Ryan experts? Help pricing a couple low pop cards...

Hello,

If this is in the wrong section, I apologize, it seemed the most logical, feel free to move if so.

I recently subbed a couple unusual Nolan Ryan cards (as in: there isn't much info for graded copies of them) and I was hoping that some of the Ryan experts could chime in and help me figure out a fair asking price on them.

They are:

1990 Donruss Nolan Ryan #665 King of Kings ERROR with #659 back PSA 10 ( pop 3 )
1990 Donruss Nolan Ryan #659 5000K's ERROR with #665 back PSA 9 ( pop 5 )

As far as I know, there have not been any recent sales so my own research is limited to similar population Nolan cards of the same era but there seems to be a lot of intricacies to how his graded card sales go. Maybe if someone has a way to figure out what previous sales of these cards were? Or, if any Ryan registry builders have an idea of what the cards may be worth? I've started them low but with a higher buy-it-now option with no results (just a few watchers) yet.

Am I just being too impatient?

I definitely just want to get a fair price that leaves both parties satisfied so all input is appreciated.

Thanks!

As a collector of "odd ball" cards and sets, which includes some off the wall Ryans, I would say the best people to contact (via their email box next to their name) would be those in the Set Registry under Players and look for a Ryan collector in the Master set. This is where the odd ball and error cards would mostly likely be listed. They could probably provide you with the best estimates because they are the ones on the look out for such cards. There are a lot of Ryan collectors who have no desire to build a Registry Set, and those are the ones you have to look for in auctions and just email them. I have done this in the past with pretty good luck.

Just my thoughts.

These are probably about $25 each, give or take.

Interesting. How did you come to that?

I've been trying to find previous sales but to no avail. Is there not much interest in errors as far as registries go?
