A die hard soccer fan, maybe someone outside the US ?

Or the same person convinced spending 750K on a 3rd year Jordan was a good idea?

If that is a 1/1 PSA 10 of the rookie card of arguably the greatest woman soccer player ever then it may turn out to be a bargain. If you are a women’s soccer fan that card will mean a lot more to you than one of the many T206 Cobbs.

If you've separated a lot of SIFK cards from sheets as I have, a 10 vs a 9 is pretty meaningless as they all come out looking pretty ragged, but I guess if the flip matters then perhaps.

Sure, the flip is what matters. As soon as I saw how crazy the price was, I had to look up the population to see if that card was a population one.

Of course the flip matters. These days, the card within doesn't even have to be real.
