Sent you a PM about it, but here's my thoughts.

If I had 79 of 80 cards and the card is under $500, I probably would buy it to complete the set. I wouldn't buy the modern numbered reprint for $50, and I wouldn't buy a fake. So I'd leave the slot empty until I bought a real one.
But as I'm going for the same set in PSA mid-grade, I'd probably wait until I could get one for a reasonable price that would at least grade a 4.
Even raw ones that are sold by reputable sellers go crazy just because this card has a story and is short-printed. I'm just 39, so I've got a bunch of time to fill the hole.
