I know I'm a difficult buyer. I'll ask about every possible imperfection that shows on a scan to make sure I know what I'm buying. I'd rather be a pest and have my concerns answered rather than not ask and be disappointed.
Once I'm all in on a card, I'm definitely guilty of paying a premium if it has the "look" I want. One in particular is my red cobby. I looked and waited for years to find one that met my criteria, centered, focused and bold color. Good thing sharp corners were not a criteria.
When it popped up I went overboard and I have no regrets.
