Default Steve Novella's PSA 8 T206 Auctions--A Market Defining Event?

Posted By: MVSNYC

wow, i missed alot in the last 16 hours...

Jim- thanks for the compliment, but there are many more T206 collectors on here who could easily be refered to as the "king of T206"- ted, brian w., scot r., hank/scott levy, etc.

Marc- i agree with you on this: "Those auctions were all started at modest amounts, and the market was allowed to decide the true value of these cards, as opposed to an arbitrary opening bid."

BUT...

...this may shock you, i would easily take a PSA 8 1/1 (none higher) over a PSA 6 or 7 cobb, anyday, call me crazy...it has nothing to do with flipping it to the big set reg guys, it simply would be cool owning the one and only best example of a card on the planet. a cobb psa 6? there are tons of them, so many it's ridiculous. wouldn't feel special enough for me.

just my 3 cents (as barry says).

MS

edited to say, a green cobb psa 7 would be the exception.
