And honestly, I am just trying to understand and re-educate myself here, definitely not trying to allege any shilling or anything of the sort. Truly just trying to understand the marketplace a little bit more. I guess in this hobby, the eye of the beholder and what his wallet is willing to give up drive price as much as anything. Thanks guys!

I would have done the same thing you did. It's a 1979 Topps Ozzie Smith! No way do I drop $220 + on that card. I can live with a slight tilt, or reasonable off centering. You got a card and an extra $100 bucks to spend. Nothing wrong with that.
