Actually it was my card. A PSA 2 just recently sold in major auction for $2,300 with creasing so I based a start off of that number. I did not expect $2,000. Fair, best offers were naturally accepted. The card actually looked much nicer in person than from the scan, had great color and was crease free with back damage. As far as "rare" I guess the term is relative as 7 Hindu back Johnson's have been graded by PSA. Not quite sure what determines rare?-less than 5, 3, 1?? The T206 Cobb Brown Hindu is not rare because it is just another Brown Hindu? Just trying to get a solid definition of "rare." Next time I guess I should say, "just a handful" , "rare- but not as rare as brown M & M's", "sorta rare but not really that rare compared to other rare things" ... whoever comes up with the best synonym, it will go in my next description on ebay.

"Rare" is a subjective term in real life. But in the collecting business, it can piss off a LOT of folks. Personally, I couldn't care if you described it scarce, rare, limited or impossible. Their point is a moot one. The guys watching, certainly knew the availability and value of this card.
I plan on selling a AB WoJo (hands), which there are seven of as well. I plan on describing it as "rarely offered" which may anger FEWer people. |

Interesting discussion, has anyone really ever bid on something on ebay bc the seller described it as rare in the item description?

Rare is like beauty. It is in the eye of the beholder. For me, when it comes to T206's, its any back but SC and Piedmonts. All beautiful !!
