Ok.
So besides what's going on with Greg Morris and Dean's, what is the opinion on paying more for a well centered raw card with sharp corners? Personally, I have no problem paying more for an ungraded card that is well centered with sharp corners. I have no need for a psa 7 that is off center.
I have 3 sets where centering is the main focus. 1958,1959 and 1960. I have probably paid too much at times for cards that are very hard to find centered.

If centering is the key factor for your sets, then absolutely grab ungraded ones that really work for you, and pay what you must.

Spelling "Yastrzemski" correctly without needing to look it up since the 1980s.

I've been bidding on GM cards for past three weeks but only win about 10% of my bids. I too wonder why the high winning bid on some.

Check out last nights auction. 1984 Donruss Don Mattingly - raw - $455. It looks nice but if you get a 9 you’re out a lot of money.

I saw that. I saw it maybe an hour before it closed when it was around 350. I was so taken back I even stopped what I was doing to show my wife the insanity. She really could not care less, fyi. Nice that there are folks on here that do.
