It's all about the card. For many, there is probably a natural human tendency to herd all cards with the same grade into the same narrow price bandwidth, yet the truth will always be that each card is unique.
This 6 is clearly much nicer than the "average" 6 and even many 7s. The Aaron RC is usually woefully centered and tilted, and it seems this copy garnered a premium for not having the usual eye appeal flaws. If the flip was covered, I would guess that card was a 7 or 7.5. It may have the effect of creating more buzz around the card, which is already a very in-demand classic. But I'd venture the next "average" 6 with the usual eye appeal issues does not equal what this one sold for. Though the next very nice one just might. Bravo to the collectors who focused on the card and not the flip and bid it up past the good old "VCP average." Last edited by MattyC; 02-13-2015 at 08:13 AM.
