Reader Reviews
There are two columns of prices for each card, each column for a different condition card. At a bare minimum, the book should label its columns of prices. Nowhere in this book does it say what condition the left column of prices is for, nor does it come right out & say what the right column of prices is for. On p. 10 of the book, it states "Prices in this issue... generally mean(s) Near Mint-Mint condition for modern era cards." But which column are they referring to? And if one column is for M-NM, what condition does the other column represent? And they say it "generally means" something? What about the cases that don't fall under the "general" category? What does it mean then? I think in an 800 page book that costs $20, there must be room to spell it out so that everyone can clearly read "In this book, the right price column is for M-NM condition, & the left price column is for VG-EX condition." Which, by the way, I don't believe to be the case. In previous Beckett baseball price guides, the two columns were for different conditions, based on the year/rarity of the card. E.g., a 1909 card series wouldn't have a M-NM column; one column would be VG-EX & the other would be G or something like that. In this book, who knows what column is for what condition? It's clearly a very serious omission on their part. Also, what's a "modern era card"? I have to look that up somewhere & memorize it? Each card series should have price guidelines with headers, as in past editions. The reader should not have to do research just to find out what price condition is being viewed. And a price guide that doesn't tell you what it's price columns represent is a worthless book.
