ElliotJim, i will grant you that "perhaps" you started this thread because you are caught up with selling your cards, therefore you saw the listings by Steve Novella as being an important hobby event, and you did not realize that the net effect was to "pimp" (a word that i did not use in my first post, but only in response to your denial) your own cards which although not explicitly on the market, are for sale.
FWIW, i believe that a number of these PSA 8 will sell, as it was not long ago that PSA 7's were selling for over $1000, so it's reasonable to assume that people will purchase some of the lower priced PSA 8's which have a starting price at that level. There's no predicting the sale of the low pops as all it takes is one collector to pull the trigger if he wants the card and feels like spending the money.
