Topps Complete Set Prices 1969 - 2014

Here is my monthly look at Topps complete set prices for all the years in which I own a set, 1969 - 2014.  The prices are from Ebay sold listings taken on January 2.  The prices do not include shipping.


  • Typically the January prices are a bit higher than average because non-hobby people are buying sets as gifts.   I often see some crazy BIN prices.  It amazes me that people won't take a little time to shop around but instead just hit the BIN and overpay.  I wish I could afford to do that.
  • A couple high-end 1969 sales were made; 1970 also
  • The 1972 set price came back to normal after some really pricey sets were sold last month.  1971 also returned to a more normal rate.
  • The price for one of each set would be $6,192.70.  Despite the inflated BIN prices on many sets, this is a $500 drop from December, due to the drop in the '71 and '72 sets.

  1. Amazing and maybe a little sad, depending on your point of view, that you have to go back a third of a century to find a set that sells for more than $50.

    1. ...right about the time a hobby became big business.
