Topps 1969 - 2010 Complete Set Prices

Here is my monthly look at complete set prices, taken from the first five completed sales listings on Ebay on March 1.

There were some really high-end sets from 1969-1971 this time, so the average price for those years went way up.

I also received an interesting email about this feature. A public defender from Florida contacted me about my price charts because he was defending a client accused of stealing a '69, '70, and '71 Topps baseball set. The lawyer was looking for an approximate value of the cards. I didn't feel inspired to help someone who stole baseball cards, so I just gave the lawyer the label link for the prices. I also told the lawyer that I hope the kid gets the book thrown at him. I guess I wasn't being very sympathetic.

So for all of you collectors who are interested in the prices, and you lawyers who are too lazy to do a little research on ebay yourself, here are the March 1st set prices:
