That is a great card and man that thing has serious “eye appeal”

Great story!! Many of my life successes came from life experiences that were failures!!!

Love that card, and I have a personal story about an example as well, so it's dear to me.

Yours certainly looks like a blazer! Glad the value caught up...been there...

That is one fantastic example of eye appeal for the grade.

Thanks everyone, yeah I hope I didn't focus too much on the $ aspect, the card is nice looking regardless of the grade. However, if I can "break even" and even daresay win on deals that leaves me more $ for more cards
