Hey guys, I just bought this card from another N54er. It was exactly as he described it...an sgc 40 / VG. I paid around $425 for it. By way of comparison, the asking price on 2s on ebay are about that.
I crack the cases. i don't like slabbed cards and I have s completely raw set.
Here's my conflict. It's a very weak 4. If I bust it out, it would probably go as a 2. I think I can shop around and get a 2 with good eye appeal for $275 or so...that would fit into my set fine.
Have not and do not plan to ask for a refund. The guy is a collector and he used the $ to buy something else. Besides, it was what he said it was...it just doesn't look as good in person as on the scan or as the grade would indicate. Would you:
1) List it on ebay figuring someone would buy the holder
2) Bust it and don't worry about it. You probably paid a little dear for it, but you get good buys as well and it all evens out
3) Consign it
4) You paid about right. Don't worry about it.
or something else?
