Default T205 Speaker in CSA holder

Why would anyone pay this much for a trimmed up/altered card? Then relist it for almost 2x what they paid. Looks like this seller will be sitting on this card for a long time before an A is worth that.

The buyer is 1908nelsong. He has bought some of my cards. He gets them cheap off Ebay and put them right back on their for profit. He is patient, so maybe he will eventually get his price?

He wont be getting anywhere close to that price let alone what he payed for it from any one who knows T205's. The card is trimmed and graded by CSA...really. If its not SGC, PSA or BVG its not graded IMO.

Though its trimmed its still a EX looking card, but not a $600 card.

This is curious since there is a PSA-graded 5 also available on eBay right now for only $500.

Seems like a lot of sellers have museums nowadays....but that is their prerogative.

Default CSA - The early years

I heard on the "Net" that the older (original?) CSA graded cards were not that bad and it is the more recent stuff that tends to have a lot of trimmed cards. I picked up a cheap one (T206 McIntyre) a week ago (hasn't arrived yet) since the card looks to be in an older version of a CSA holder plus it didn't break the bank. Also, it didn't look trimmed like the other two that were also auctioned off at the same time. If it is trimmed, I'll just crack open the casing and put it with the rest of my ungraded cards. If it isn't trimmed then it looks like I may have picked up a potential PSA 6 or 7 for cheap!
