There are 5 of these cards on Ebay; two stand out:

and

I'd be interested in the wisdom and experience of the forum members about these two cards. Two questions in particular:

1. Which card do you like better? The first has a minor wrinkle on the right border, but really good corners. The second one's corners aren't quite as good. I personally think the colors are a little better on 1 and it gets my vote. The second has a higher grade in its slab (for what that's worth). The bidding seems about equal, but #1 ends 6/25 at 1:00 (Pacific time), while #2 has 2 1/2 days longer to run.


This brings up my second question:


2. What is the bidding strategy when two similar cards come up like this? Do you get agressive on the first because those who don't get it will be more agressive on the second? Or, should you wait and get one buyer out of the way for less competition?
