I have dealt with Yepbg. About 4 years ago I paid way up for an e105 Wagner throwing that I needed. I think the value in 2022 has finally caught up to what I paid! But he had the card and I needed it, so I bought it. The card came on time and as described. I am almost positive I did another deal with him where I made a strong offer below his ask but above FMV and he accepted. He certainly has some nice and rare stuff and aside from price, I have had nothing but solid experiences. But he certainly prices high and he does not move much.

It all comes down to how badly do you want the card, now. Because another will 100% come up in the next 1-2 years (and Yepbg may compete against you to buy it!)

this is spot on. if you have to have it...now...you have to pay up. this is what the hobby has become.

I was trying to complete my e97 nichols run...had been working on it for a few decades...I never could pull the trigger on the color phil variation because prices were crazy. Eventually I did...and then I got another a few months later for 1/2 the price.

I recently got my last dots miller to complete my run...and I paid up...because I was ready to be done and who knows when another will turn up.
