Can someone tell me what the collection value means towards the total value of the organizer. Which one should I pay attention beckett value or total collection value? Thanks.

beckett value is the value of the cards in baseline era condition*
total collection value is the value of the collection in the condition that you set it in

so, if you change a condition of a card to something that is different than the baseline era condition, it will change the total collection value

*baseline era condition:
1990-current = Mint
1980-1989 = Nmmt
1949-1979 = Nrmt
(and as far as i know, 1911-1948 is exmt)

I always wondered that too.

also remember: when you add cards to your organize, it automatically is entered as mint. if the card you input is from before 1990, this will make the collection value higher than the beckett value. you have to change the condition of pre-1990 cards to their baseline era condition to have beckett value and collection value be the same
