Tim NewcombSorry, but I don't think this should have waited until the auction is over. There's a material issue about the description and the claims made for the card. Calling it to people's attention is no different from posts that question whether an active auction is authentic or a reprint. (This card is not a reprint, I realize, but I do question whether it is what it's claimed to be.)
This is less the seller's fault than PSA's, but still... I feel potential bidders ought to know that it may be impossible to determine whether this is an E90-1. What's the point of bringing that question up after the auction is over?
To reiterate, I believe the blank back makes it impossible to determine which issue it comes from. However, you could always claim that all E90-1/E92 blank backs are rare and sell it that way, no problem. But I don't see any reason for pinpointing this as an E90-1. I invited people to supply evidence to the contrary, but no one has-- unless we believe the grading companies know something about these cards that none of us do.
And Larry, I am not trying to brainwash anyone into not bidding so I can keep the price low for myself. No offense, but the price is already way beyond what I think the card is worth. If other bidders choose to accept PSA's assertion that it's an E90-1, that's their decision.
Nothing personal, and I wish you a good price and a successful transaction--
Tim
