It doesn't sound like you are the type of collector to be patient and wait, which is probably why you overpay. For less than another $100 you could have gotten a HOFer a full grade higher. But you would have had to wait.

That was over a year ago. I could have bought a Drum in a PSA 2 for about $1800 a year ago. I could have bought a common player Uzit for quite a bit less a year ago. I could have bought an ounce of gold, a car, a gallon of milk, a box of diapers...all cheaper a year ago. How can you compare prices of a year ago to today's pricing? Especially in a series as hot as rare backed T206? Johnny Harmonica gave us an example of a PSA 2 common player that sold for over $1400....not from a year ago, but rather a few months ago. Since I buy cards now, and not a year ago, I think its important to look at what cards are selling for now.....not a year ago.
