I might add that the main reason the card did well is that it was undergraded, and should have properly been graded a 60. The winning bidder came over with his loupe and examined it for half an hour and also realized it was undergraded. The underbidder lived out of town and didn't have that advantage.

The main point is this is an example of supply and demand. I agree if I were in the market for a Plank I would qualify on all four and bounce back and forth as necessary. But in the end I bet I walk away with one of them for a more than fair price. Not suggesting a steal, but certainly no records will be set here. Each of the four winners will be very happy with his respective cost.
