martytom, ok great, then the card is not diffucult to obtain! only for me because i won't pay $2,500+. so if i am "out of the loop" for that card then it's right on for the majority, so you would agree that it is "tough" to get? after all supply/demand give you price avg. therefore the card is not easy to find because demand is keeping up with supply? this is right correct? so when it comes up for sale it sells, because demand keeps up with supply! and this holds true for every card correct tom? it must because the demand is there. lets just stick with that card since this is where your point is made.
all on e bay right now.

i done this check right after i read your post, i won't pay $2,500 because i think it's over priced, you say supply/demand meet and then you get the price people want to pay, so therefore it's priced right. granted 2 cards are above $2,500, but there are 2 at $2,500 and 1 could be had cheaper, and he 7.5 is a supper steal compared to the 8 prices! if demand is keeping up with supply and it's priced right "just not for me" whay are these not sold?? it comes down to opinion, and i respect your's, but i don't agree with it, can you respect mine? i will never concede that there are no overpriced and overhyped cards!! i didn't respond to bruce or whomever else is posting with him because i think it's absurd to think it only applys to post war cards, i won't get into it with either you or bruce, because i don't agree all pre-war prices are sopt on!, and that your formula is valid, if you have read all the post's you will notice many not agreeing to the other's opinion of what card/s are over done, it's all a matter of one's opinion right tom? but thanks for your response, your entitled to it.....marty
