A Bobby Morgan raw in VG sold by Huggins and Scott in 2015 went for $2800 the the same card popped up in an REA a year later in 2016 now actually graded SGC 40 and it sold for $2040. They don't come up often so that should help set the market, and they are all significantly nicer than the card in question. Also SGC has graded at least 2 Wyatts and PSA has graded 2. If you offer him the book NM price he should jump on it.
PWCC also sold a PSA 5 Felin's Franks of John Meyer for $2,150 last month. Felin's Franks cards are quite scarce, but it is a thin market once the price gets above a few hundred dollars. The Meyer card had only three bidders over $503 and just two bidders over $974.

That asking price is wildly optimistic. I can sympathize with the OP. I think many of us have cards that we have wanted for a long time that sit on eBay forever at insane BINs.
