It can be a little nutty when the registry comes into play. I had one fellow pay me a premium to cut up a really rare strip I was selling rather than take delivery on the uncut strip because he wanted two cards from the strip for his registry set. I cut the strip, got paid full price for the entire strip and kept 8 of the ten cards, including the fighter I actually collect. |
