Thanks, Stache! I'm kind of addicted to buying high-end 9 Hendersons. When I look at Gem Mt 10s (some of which really are not worthy of the grade) sell for 10k, and then I see some 9s that have but one tiny flaw, usually a fisheye, selling for $330...it just seems like a great value. I could never see paying 9700 to essentially remove a tiny fisheye that is hardly as noticeable in hand as it is in a hugely blown up scan. High-end, centered 9s just hit my eye as gem, and the composition of that whole card is beautiful, IMO. The lighting, the stance, the banner design, the light blue framing, the crispy white borders...a tiltless, centered Rickey RC is to me a thing of beauty! Here is my PSA specimen...
