We totally disagree with your philosphy.
As you well know, price especially in this hobby, is a function of supply and demand.
One of our objectives as a collector of the rare materials is to bring more examples,
particularly the best known examples extant, to market. The most efficient way to
accomplish this objective is to alert the potential, albeit unknown, seller that he
could realize a very high price for his items.
Our guess is that as a result of this thread, the price of Red Suns, particularly higher
grade examples wll rise. And that is a good thing because the higher the prices
the more likely it is that there will be a seller.
As Barry Sloate pointed out, even if he had a Red Sun in the early 1980's why would
he recall the sale of a $25.00 card.
We aggressively pursue a plethora of rare issues and do all we can to create buzz
in the marketplace with the hope that collectors will test the market and sell or auction
their super rare top condition items.
