Can anyone explain the T207 WaJo's price?

i read this card has an unusual factory # which may explain the price.

That would explain it.

The Factory 606 Recruit back is less common than Factory 240, perhaps at a 25% for 606, and 75% for 240 ratio. Unlike T206, I don't remember much of a difference in price or extra demand for the less common factory 606 cards, so unless that mindset has changed recently, I don't think the factory designation had much to do with this card's final price.

Yeah - Johnson is maybe 3-1 in Fac 240 to 606 populations ... so unless someone (sometwo at least) know something specific about a variation in this card that makes it worth that much to each of them, this price seems absurd. I'd sell my Johnsons (T207) for that price all day and twice on Sunday.

It’s a big price, but great to see a T207 get some love in this market. Hope it spills over!

I have no idea what the back is on mine, have to look next time i can.

I'm by no means a t207 expert but from looking at the sales of t207 Johnson cards, both factories seem pretty well represented. I'm also unsure if that even is a thing where the factories matter in that set, I can't imagine more than a handful of people really care that much.

I'm still scratching my head at how that one did what it did. Maybe 2 people got confused and thought it was a ramly?

I, too, was shocked at what this card sold for. I thought it would go for roughly $1,500 - $2K max. If the underbidder is a Net54 member, please don't hesitate to PM me with a ridiculous offer for this Factory 606 example!

I was definitely shocked as well. I was honestly thinking around $1k at most. 6 months ago, a PSA 3 went for $1,020. I also have a Factory 606 example (SGC 1.5) that I would certainly be willing to part with for that kind of premium. I haven't noticed a difference in price for either Fac 240 or 606. 606 is a little rarer, but still plenty exist.
