In my experience, error cards CAN carry a ton of value depending on how common the error and whose card it happens to be. However, in order to truly carry "value", cards have to be graded. That's not a cheap proposition for most people that have a ton of cards to sort through, but it could be worth it depending on your collection.

My advice is to sort through what you have, find the ones that could potentially have higher value, and get the cards graded. Hope that helps
