With the crazy market, what will this iconic card bring?

[Billy5858]

Sorry to go off on a tangent but since we are talking about a card almost worth 1 million dollars. Why is it slabbed in the same type of case that a 20 dollar T206 PSA 1 common is? I mean shouldn't it be protected by a special case made out of titanium or some other strong metal. Shouldn't the TPG companies have a special case for cards that are worth 50k and up? I'd hate to accidentally step on my recently bought 740k card and damage it. This would kinda suck. Sorry maybe this Q has been brought up before and I should have posted on the dumb questions thread.

good point! as much as PSA charges for high buck cards they should be in titanium with gorilla glass!

I have very often wondered this.

Good question.

There's a damn nice SGC 96 in the upcoming Goldin Auction. I'd say it's as nice as the PSA 10 and won't cost you a half million....or more....

And they could easily charge it as an "option". That way someone that cherishes a $10k card can get elevates protection or opt for standard case if they prefer synergy over added security. Would also make them plenty more profit.
