How much does condition matter on a rare card

I would take the poor card since you may never see it again.

My example is my T215 Red Cross Billy Purtell Jersey City card. As far as I can tell it's the only one graded by PSA or SGC. I was thrilled to pick it up when I saw it for my Jersey City collection. I never thought I would ever see it let alone own it.
