For the most part I highly agree. With something like this if it was mine I would also like the opening bid to be close to what I had in it. Because it is custom made for someone I don't see a huge upside and could easily see it selling for way less than the current opening bid if started low.

I somehow missed he was only doing one of each card. I agree that the "special/big" cards in the hobby could be a good investment. I can say everyone that sees the ones I have think they are extremely cool until I tell them what they cost. Then they think I am joking because they say they look like a grade school kids art project.
