Seriously? I get the four corners look better under a microscope, but you think you should pay a premium for that? You can't think of anything better to spend $2,400 on?

Everyday I wonder how I can be involved in a hobby where people are willing to spend their money like that.

its still good for the hobby that the psa 10s are going for big money....gets people involved..some may then buy psa 9s etc.....never a bad thing for people to pay big money on cards.....as $1 cards are still there for us to be happy with.....economy is doing well I guess...
