I knew damn well I was overpaying for this card, but the centering isn't too bad, the corners are magnificent, and I really think it's time to climb aboard the Ryan Express before you're left holding the bag in 'High Price Station' (wow, that was quite a reach with that metaphor). On a side note, if you check out the supposed 'equivalent' straight graded cards (in PSA 7), they almost always have worse centering than this one...

A week and a half later, another 1972 Topps #595 Nolan Ryan PSA 9 OC came up for auction and sold for more than twice (2.26 times) as much as what I overpaid for this guy. Yowza!!

Overpaying yesterday is simply underpaying tomorrow.
