1991 Scanlens Card Collection Album

[chopper_con]

I'm wondering if anybody can help me out with a value on the following item:

1991 Scanlens Card Collection Album (NSWRL Logo on front)
- The album has a hard plastic cover and contains clear sleeves for 210 cards.

I have attached a photo for your perusal. I would appreciate your feedback as I have only ever seen 1 old picture on the internet of this item.

Thanks in advance.

Depending on condition the album over the last 10 yrs I have seen this album sell anywhere from $100 to $300

I wonder what an album still in its packing is worth then.

Wow...not bad for a $9.99 investment back in 1991. I really appreciate your help!

Out of interest...are they rare or common in circulation based on your vast experience?

The spines crack easily so if its in mint with out rippling of the front plastic you are doing well!

The spine has certainly not cracked but it does have the rippling on the front of the plastic covers. Pretty good condition I reckon for a 25 year old folder. No other obvious marks or scratches/rips.

Mick...in your opinion only worth the lower end of the scale in the condition mine is in?

Still interested to find out the scarcity of the albums - as I can't find any for sale???

About right in my opinion ... These are pretty rare but people are generally really worried about the condition so if you can send through a few more pics especially of the spine to show it's condition that would influence peoples interest in this Album ....

You usually see a few per year go on the market ... So not a very common selling Album

Hi Andjelko,

I'll take a few more pics and upload them when I get home this afternoon. I'm not interested in selling them at this stage (unless the price was very persuading). I was just intrigued with the value of them as I had rarely seen them in my travels so to speak.

you would have to think from $300 to $400

I have seen a dozen or so on ebay in about 5-6 years.
I sold 3 unopened packs about 10 years ago, for average 300 each.
