Exactly!! I feel this is what most people are missing bc of the hype, which created very unrealistic expectations. This is the 3rd best price ever, and it’s not a t206 Wagner nor a 1952 Topps mantle - the two most iconic cards of all time that have common-man appeal well beyond your typical collector. This is a great result and REA should be shouting this fact from the rooftop, not to mention they have now sold two of the top 3 most expensive cards/sales ever
