I'd study VCP grids; get to know every example that sold, how much, when, in what venue, and what its strengths and flaws are. In that respect the homework is rather simple-- study the cards and their sales.

Hope that helps. I also agree on variation preference but with this card one sometimes feels lucky just to have one that's not wrecked-- let alone with any modicum of eye appeal!


Best,

I'm not looking for a super gem PSA 1...just not a rag. I'm not going to be crazy picky, I think there are quite a few out there that fit into my acceptable range. I want one on the nice side...but I'm not looking for a great one. What I don't want is one that is graded a 1 because that's as low as the scale goes and I don't want an "authentic" example due to it having some kind of damage/problem.

What is a good source for sales history of these cards?
