Craig LipmanI think the sales results of the 33 Goudey Ruth and 51 Bowman Mays
are examples of collectors buying the card and not the plastic. The psa 8 Mays has greater eye appeal than the sgc 92. This is not to say that psa will out sell similarily graded sgc cards. I think it depends on the individual card.
The psa 8 Ruth #53 Ruth that sold for 40k was an overgraded example that had a large printing flaw on the front and very poor eye appeal. I was suprised it even went for as high as it did. I would doubt a high end psa 8 Ruth #53 would sell for that low.
