Certain product endorsements or signed authographs can also provide collectible items that are deemed valuable. Timex featured Barbara Ann Scott, a female skater and a Canadian. She won an Olympic victory in 1948. That enhances sales of thousands of dolls and figurines of her likeness. These days it seems almost any star of any reknown at all has t-shirts, dolls, coffee cups, mugs, watches, and any other imaginable memorabilia item with there likeness on them.
On ebay and on the internet, you should also understand that a certificate of authenticity doesn't guarantee that you are doing business with a reputable seller, nor does the phrase 'mint condition' means a whole lot. As in other markets there is such a thing known as 'dealer bias'. It is among the negative facets of the business. You might try to come back to the same seller and sell back the card they sold you for a high price in "mint condition" only to find out that now they reduce the worthiness. Sadyly, they will not want to pay you what they said it was worth.
Do not allow the dealer or seller to dictate which authentication service you will use. A reputable dealer will be fine with your pick no matter what. But at the same time you should realize that authenticators may not specialize in the item you are having evaluated. Good luck.
