I think it is corect for thé grade. The only problem for me is the 0 ref of the seller, hope your transaction will be ok

If I am not mistaken it's a kid about your age. I remember talking to a kid from
St Paul about 2 weeks ago at a card shop and he talked about having some t206's and one with 2 names. Hope it's a good deal. Nice card BTW.

Nice card, I had bid on it as well. I dropped out at $55 or $60. I was also worried about the 0 feedback for seller. I know e-bay protect will get money back with paypal, but just don't have time to deal with any hassels.

Particularly, the Foley White t206 cards in SGC 2's go for around $51, so that isn't a bad sell. I have the same card. And yeah, I really think it's a beautiful card in great condition.

The Lafitte is a good price for the grade; I don't think that the minor miscut adds or subtracts from its "value". I'm sure the zero feedback and the GAI holder kept the price down. It is a nice pickup.

That's what I feel too. I actually think the miscut adds to the value, maybe not price wise, but in uniqueness. It's quite interesting. Also, I know that GAI is not the best company, but they are still quite reliable.
