Posted By: <b>Tim James</b><p>Mastro closed a few days ago,and I am surprised that nobody has commented on this lot.Really great looking card,but why did it go for so much ? The description states that it is in the upper tier R-319 grades,but there are others that look as good to me and did not garner as high a bid as this.Is this card more rare than others ?<br /><br /><a href="http://www.mastronet.com/index.cfm?action=DisplayContent&ContentName=Lot%20 Information&LotIndex=54894&CurrentRow=1" target="_new" rel="nofollow">http://www.mastronet.com/index.cfm?action=DisplayContent&ContentName=Lot%20 Information&LotIndex=54894&CurrentRow=1</a><br /><br />

Posted By: <b>Robert</b><p>I am sure with out looking that it is probably the only PSA 8 or one of very few that is why it went for so much. A couple of guys with very deep pockets battling it out.

Posted By: <b>Tim James</b><p>There are PSA 8's all around this and they didn't come close to the price of this one !I'm aware of market forces,but my goodness !!I'm a Reds fan,I would have gone with the Luque card.<br /><a href="http://www.mastronet.com/index.cfm?Action=DisplayContent&ContentName=Lot%20 List%20Sports" target="_new" rel="nofollow">http://www.mastronet.com/index.cfm?Action=DisplayContent&ContentName=Lot%20 List%20Sports</a>

Posted By: <b>cmoking</b><p>Scott Ireland bought it for his PSA Registry set. One of 6 PSA 8s, the other 5 being locked up in collections by the likes of Marshall Fogel, Charlie Merkel, etc. that won't see the light of day til their heirs get the cards. Similarly, a #55 Pat Malone PSA 8 went for around 16K I think (after the juice) a few months back. This isn't a case of people buying cards thinking of it as an investment. This is a case of people with gobs of money, where $20K is nothing to them compared to completing a goal of theirs. There are many millionairs out there, and probably a ton of billionaires too. Surely some billionaires are baseball card collectors too.
