2nd Robinson for sale on ebay. I guess they got it put in new flip. That's an expensive flip. David Maupin

haha but a good tactic...set the market price up by 3x..with your own purchase....then put in a new flip


well the new flip tends to show the card would be verified as real by PSA

i wonder if he bought insurance on the card...if not only cost him 5 dollars or so for the new flip....

the centering is pretty bad for a psa 8 by the way ..the card to me doesnt look like more than 7 at best

I doubt Charlie expects to get his list, but who knows.

You posted 2 pics of the same card but the top one looks better. (Cleaner/brighter) Why the 2 pics, was it cleaned up in the first one?

Sorry, 1952 but am I too assume that is the holder the card is in? Also, is the hologram part something new as well or have they always been referred to as hologram flips?

PSA just recently started using a small hologram on the label of their flips as an added measure to help prevent counterfeiting. I think they have been using them for less than a year, so it's pretty new. PSA will switch your cards from an old slab that doesn't have a hologram to a new one for $5 so some people are doing it prior to selling to give buyers a little more confidence that the card is real.
