The SMR & VCP and you can add Beckett in that mix are only used as guide prices and nothing else. The prices are not set in stone. For example, certain VCP cards may be marked down cheaper than other VCP cards because perhaps that cheaper PSA 5 had a wrinkle in the card compared to another PSA 5 of that player priced by VCP card in the same grade that was a nicer looking card. If a card has great eye appeal, matches the grade, & even if the price is over the price guide price or VCP price, that person will buy the card, especially if that person hasn't seen that card available for a long time.
