PSA 4 usually bring in about the $850-$950 range and the price of this auction looks like the bidders think it is over graded and that is why it is at $570 with 2 minutes ot go. The final bell should come in the $650-700 range I would guess.

MASTRO has an SGC 50 (same as a 4) that is TWICE as NICE as this one

It sold for $715.05 which was prtty close to my guess...a lot lower then a solid 4 would bring in.

I know it is shocking but we can come up with many examples of overgraded cards, this may be off a grade. It sure doesn't look like a 4 to me.

I have no confidence in PSA, as most of you know I follow T202s quite closely. THe PSA high grade cards seem to not factor in what the back of the looks like. A word of advice to anyone buying or bidding on a PSA high grade T202, make sure you get a scan of the back.

As we always say. "Buy The Card, Not the Holder".

What is the knock on this card? It looks like a low-end four to me.
I have seen more than a few PSA 4s, SGC 50s and GAI 4s that look worse.
