Misunderestimated (Brian H)First of all I want to say that I have "done business" with Daniel and have consistently found him to be absolutely above board and honest and only wish that everyone else I dealt with was equally trustworthy/
As a buyer I "feel your pain" with respect to high reserves. They are frustrating and sometimes even maddening and . But when the seller (or consignor as the case may be)will only settle for high prices based on "PSA Registry scarcity," the numbers can seem absurd to anyone who isn't attuned to the current developments in a given set registry. The high reserve enables the seller to get a high dollar amount even when only one bidder is really willing to pay what anyone not intimately familiar with the population report and the current state of the set registry would (justifiably?) consider "crazy money" for an otherwise unremarkable card.
