JimCrandellTo give you the real correct perspective, if a vintage cards value in mint condition(as you describe) is $1,000--then it is probably a common or a less popular set, then the nrmt-mt price is probably $350-$400 and the near mint price $175-$200--at least this is a good rule of thumb. A card centered 99/1 would be no better than vg--hence 25% of the nrmt price or $50. If it is trimmed--less.
