Need Tip on Donaldson FB Card Pricing

[bfindeisen]

So I was thinking about what the value of the Josh Donaldson 84 Athletics RC FB card I got on release and noticed it isn't listed in the market. Does that mean it's rare? And if that is the case and I want to sell it, does anyone have any tips about about much to list it for? I've never set the market for one of these cards.

Oh, and a weird thing I noticed:

If I'm not mistaken, Donaldson (like Sandoval) came up as a Catcher and they moved him to third. Even on the card image they use in the game, it says "C" in the bottom left, like as position; but Donaldson is listed as a 3B with no secondary position. Seems like an oversight.

It's not rare, just the other day it became unsellable for whatever reason. It was about 2-3k on day one

The "c" on the bottom means it can be used in a captains mission.

We're not talking about the same thing. It's definitely his position. It's a real baseball card; doesn't have anything to do with the game.

I believe he was a catcher in the minors and when they brought him up they made him 3b

Some of the rookie, or tier 1 FB cards are sellable. Those that finished the team collections were able to sell the tier 1 cards for a few days. Then SDS patched it by making any future cards unsellable. So, those few you see on the market are the only cards u can buy.

If u have one that is sellable, it means that particular card was obtained before the patch, meaning it's sellable..

So, my original question, does this make it rare and valuable? If there is no other card like it on the marketplace, what price should I consider selling at to start?

It's Rare in that you are one of the only few that can sell it, but it's not valuable because a lot of people have him (probably 20% of DD players) but just can't sell him. Plus, he can't be used to really achieve anything great and his actual stats are kind of crappy.

In a nutshell, he is rare but not valuable. You probably couldn't get more than 10K for him I would guess.

Well that's a lot more than I had anticipated! Someone early mentioned around 2k, but obviously that was when there was more of this card in the marketplace.

Is there anything I can achieve with it? Like can I unlock other missions or cards with it?
