When I see a card commanding $7.2M, in my mind it means it's a very desirable card.
I kind of look at it is a a sign that either the tide is turning on mega$-cards or the investing side of the community didn't agree this is one of those cards that is worth chasing.
Personally, I think it's a great card. I mean a frigging Ruth card from 1914 (sorry, I just can't bring myself to say "rookie" card).
What still blows my mind is that people were paying north of $1M for new modern 1/1 cards. That I'll never understand. Does anyone think that trend will continue? What are people's thoughts about how much those 1/1 cards that were fetching 6 digits would now bring at auction today?
