Anyone buying that PSA 4 just because it's the highest graded should reassess why they are collecting.

Where are the flowery write ups when you need them?

Those OJ's are "nice for the grade".

Anyone have any idea why the starting bid on the PSA 4 T-206 lundgren (Kansas city) has a starting bid of $200? That starting bid is higher than any documented sale price of that card, which is a common. It sells regularly for $60-80 on eBay with a few low to mid $100s sprinkled in...

Who would bid on that card anymore at PSA7 pricing? The corners are sure to get dented moving around like that.

Regarding the N172 Nicholson that's moved around in the holder.....problem with trying to straighten it out is that you could end up doing more damage to the card. I've tried it myself with a 1974 Topps stamp that had become diagonal in the holder.....after I tried to straighten it out, it had become so wedged into the holder's edges, that there's now absolutely no way to straighten it out, and no way that it's still in the grade it was in at the time of encapsulation

JP- yes, $200 for a Lundgren, Kansas City is too high, and it looks like there is some confusion between the Chicago and KC team variations.
