Andy McKayZach,
I don't think you did. I think you put it into perspective quite well.
I recall much the same thing happening with a George Washington "Historical Cut" (put out by Topps I believe). The closing price was like 4-5x what you could buy a complete and whole Washington signed document. Which would you rather have: a complete piece of history, or a signature cut from a document that is now destroyed?
Damian,
Yes, it is the same Beckett, as in the magazine. They do consignments for sale on eBay (in addition to sometimes flat out selling cards they grade [conflict of interest much? But I don't think that's a matter for these boards]).
