Unless you can point me to a lower price on the card (that didn't happen more than 2 years ago), I don't see the joke, particularly as the card is part of the master set, and there is only 1 PSA 9 that trumps this card. VCP average on it is $1,050, so I'd say $806 isn't a bad deal at all. Maybe not a "steal", but certainly not an inflated price by any means.
You should search the forum for threads where our resident celebrity has shown inflated prices at Goodwin auctions over the years. Then you'll understand why he was LOL'ing so hard.
