Cleaning, found my cards, where to sell?

In going through storage I found my boxes of original CCG cards.

These are all TNG, first edition. I have some unique cards, like the bridge officers.

I have those that I really liked and put into card protectors, the rest are all loose but have been in a baseball card style storage box. Non-smoking home.

Any recommendations as to where I would sell them? They're all looking for a good home!

These are my favorites, I have others in card protectors as well.

Are they white border or black border?

Mostly white, a few black. The Bridge crew are all white border. I have a better listing of those that I really liked, but it gets messy pasting it in here.

PM me and I would be happy to send what I have inventoried so far!

Honestly, the white border cards are not going to net you much money, even with the bridge crew and the Enterprise. You can put them up on eBay with a starting bid of a dollar and hope you get something for them. Decipher printed so many of those that you can still buy cases of packs online for ridiculously low prices.

The black border cards (Premiere, copyright 1994) are worth a little bit, as people are still trying to complete their BB collections. I would look up which ones of those are rare and try to sell them as singles. Black border cards from Alternate Universe (copyright 1995) are as easy to acquire as WB Premiere, so not worth a lot either.

Also, welcome back!

Thanks for the info. I was afraid that the cards wouldn't fetch much.

If anyone has any interest, I'd like to see them go to a good home rather than my trash bin.

Agree, better to give them away than throw them away. I assume you are in CO and would rather ship them CONUS?

Do you have any cards from the later sets? Some of that stuff is worth legit money.

I'm actually in MN.

And no later set cards. I had stopped playing after the original set came out, then it started getting out of hand trying to keep up with all the sets coming out and trying to keep collecting.

Oh, then you have a large number of people near-ish to you who might either take the cards off your hands or teach you to play. @LORE @BCSWowbagger @flrazor

I'd take 'em as a last resort but honestly would much rather get you playing again. It's a great game! With a handful of (free) virtual cards the cards you've got can be shaped into a pretty good deck!
