Matt - I just read your rebuttal. That was good too.
I think this link shows it best.

When you have a 'worthless' 8 selling for only $30, a half point higher 8.5 selling for over double that at $76, and a half point higher than that - the 'mint' 9 selling at over 15 TIMES the price of the 8 - well....that is why the hobby has so much greed and problems with it. The ironic part is - I CAN'T SEE A F***ING THING DIFFERENT IN ALL THREE CARDS!! THEY ALL LOOK VIRTUALLY IDENTICAL!!! |
Apologies for the back to back posts but just picking through the thread. This just goes to prove my point...
If you can get a card for 30 bucks that looks very similar to a card that sells for 15x more I very good value in the lower priced card.
