Mid-Week Hockey Top 10 (8/14/19)

A new feature I hope to develop here on The Real DFG is going to be a weekly look at the Top 10 most recent highest selling hockey cards on various platforms.  There is a deluge of collectors out there (or investors) with cash to spend.  With the hype around other sports, prospecting, and speculative buying, I wanted to shed some light on the key cards that have been moving in the hockey world.

Most sales will be from Ebay since it is the largest collection of auctions and BIN sales out there.  However, I am only searching hockey cards, singles, and final sales.  I am not verifying whether these transactions are 100% complete and paid for.  If there are other sales to note, I will list those here as well.

A few interesting notes or talking points here:

--The McDavid The Cup RPA has sold here three times, twice by the same seller, with two different serial numbers.

--The Gretzky RC, either Topps or O-Pee-Chee shows up in the top 100 cards 35 times!

--The Bobby Orr RC shows up in the top 100 cards 14 times.




**I try to note sellers for each card since there have been allegations made regarding the current trimming scandal, shill bidding, etc.  This in no way, endorses, supports, or advertises any seller listed, nor does it make a claim on the authenticity of any item.  This is simply for entertainment, conversation starting, and general information.  Make your own informed decisions before purchasing cards or putting your trust in any dealer/seller.

    This is Bo from Baseball Cards Come to Life (borosny.blogspot.com). I have a ton of hockey cards to trade - would you be interested in doing a hockey-for-baseball swap? If so, email me at borosny@gmail.com.
    Thanks!
