Posted By: <b>ralph</b><p>Personally, I think this would be a $40 card rather than $80. It was displayed well, something sellers don't often do and which is critical to getting a decent price for a raw card. Also, the 3rd bidder was at $50, so I wasn't far off. This was a case where 2 bidders wanted this card for more than what the market guides for.

So, at best this card grades out as VG-EX. Is there something about Devore that makes a VG-EX example go for close to $80? Or is it just condition, condition, condition?
