Posted By: <b>Lee Behrens</b><p>Graded 30/2's of HOFers tend to go for $50-$60, that is why I think that this card has not yet sold. GAI may be a factor, I know the more I see the more I do not like of them. I suspect if the BIN was around $65 it probably would have sold.<br /><br />Lee

Posted By: <b>Lee</b><p>I like GAI, but their grades are often a bit inflated. $69 is a good price for the card and I would consider it if I needed that card. As for a PSA 1 for $71, that is a bit high I think. 1's have been selling for about $40-$50 lately.<br /><br />Edited to Add: $69 is a good price, but not a great one

Posted By: <b>warshawlaw</b><p>1. The scans are blurry. <br />2. GAI routinely overgrades and I think they are getting a rep for that, especially with low end cards. I have seen a ton of GAI 2s that are charitably 1.5s with SGC and 1s with PSA (since it doesn't split p and f grades). <br /><br />With a blurry scan, I would not bid on the card as a "2". I would have to assume it has some damage that isn't quite visible. As a poor or fair card it isn't worth the money.

Posted By: <b>Brett</b><p>That seems kind of low compared to some prices i've seen on ebay. I've seen PSA 2 SGC 30's of HOFers go for $75-$90....

Posted By: <b>Lee</b><p>That is a really nice looking Bender for a 1, too bad it has paper loss. As for price, I guess I'm just a bargain hunter....
