Unfortunately, one sale isn't much of a trend, even when it has such a high profile. As others have identified, there are some questions swirling around the action here, precisely how many bidders were bidding, and at what level.

But if we start to see a lot more action, with a plethora of CSG cards well into the 6 figure range, then I suspect we'll start to have a little more confidence that the market is there.

I suppose if I'm getting greedy in terms of wanting abundant confirmation, then it would also be helpful if there is a wicked downturn in the market, just to see how well CSG-graded items hold up relative to other TPGs.
