I think you are asking Paul an impossible question to answer. It should have read...Can you explain human nature to me as it pertains to buying little pieces of cardboard? Answer: ?????

When 2 people REALLY want something and they are anonymous to each other (or even in the same room) you will get 100 different outcomes if that auction went off 100 times. Add 3 crazy collectors (and I am one) to the mix and you have an atom bomb situation. That card on a different day may have gone for $2500 or maybe even $7000. Who knows! I think that the unknown is half the fun in all this.

Peace, Mike
