Any thoughts on this auction's results?

If the card looks as nice in person and some dealers were able to preview it and see it in person I believe they may feel it severely undergraded. It sure appears so from the scan. Corners appear sharp and I don't see all that print junk that almost every Yaz rookie has.

I almost dropped a huge snipe on that but lost myself in meetings. The card looks like a 9 at first glance. And yet a 9 would still cost significantly more than the winning bid on that card. A prime case of the card over holder, and what's more there is bump potential mitigating cost in case of a resale. I've had 7s regrade to 9s before so it happens. But in terms of enjoying a clean, gorgeous card that looks better than many 8s and 9s, that card right there would bring a collector great enjoyment. Waiting around for an 8 or 8.5 that looks the same, and then having to win that 8 or 8.5, makes winning that card at that price a good deal, if you're after that card and love it.

I mean cover that flip and imagine it said '9,' on it, and it would look right at home. Props to whoever will be holding that beauty in their collection.
