The normal final corrected version sells for $1 and I will ask $1500 for the variation I have and take the first $1050-$1200 I am offered.

I don't know much about grading rarities but would guess from what I have seen they get an even more insane asking price. On the very few times I have had silly rare stuff graded I basically double my asking price.

One of the biggest things I have noticed with silly rare stuff is you need to know your audience and not be in a hurry to sell.
This. I prefer actual rarity to condition rarity every day of the week and twice on Saturdays because when I decide to offer one up, the price is the price and if you don't want to pay it
