I just don't get why someone would pay more for the same card that's been available for weeks for about 25% less than he ended up paying.

I know this card is very small potatoes, and it's not exactly apples to apples, but I wonder, overall, if it suggests some type of psychological effect that large, big name auctions have on people. The excitement of bidding in an auction where cards are selling for tens of thousands of dollars, and you're a part of that. I find it fascinating.

The PSA card has much better centering. I'd rather have that card for an extra $20 too.

this is funny...talk about beating a dead horse. if you want your cards to sell as high as others with pwcc...you have to shill them...or have someone else shill them...its pretty simple.

well centered cards sell better than non well centered cards...this is fact...even more so lately than ever.

I don't think centering was vastly different on the Lefty Grove '6' vs the Lefty Grove '7'. I think the phenomenon of a PWCC seller on the '7' versus a normal Joe Blow on the '6', made the $1400 and some change difference.

That was my thought too. The top card has a very thin border at the top.
