Well than i dont know his point...my point is that a 9 will destroy an 8 in price and you cant compare what a 8 sells for versus a 9 because thats a grand canyon with exponential difference unlike 5s versus 6s. This thread was about given what 8s sell for versus a 9 and if the prices are related.. My point was it makes no sense to compare the two when someone wont pay for an 8 even remotely close to what a current 9 Koufax will sell for

The best 8 ever in the world (never attempted to be bumped) wont come remotely close to price at the current time as the 9 for sale at Heritage. No mater what faults you have with that 9. If people truly buy the card and are not buying the holder than that would not be the case.. Yes i have paid a PSA 4 price for a PSA 3 card if it involves 200 bucks etc. Nobody going to do that involving 100k etc.
