Personally, i let the fools part with all their money paying outrageous prices for a card that you cant tell the difference of. What truly is the difference between mint and gem mint. and is it worth 80k to you to show off that difference?
Rose rc's guide in Beckett for $1000 in nr mint condition. Personally, i wouldnt pay more for one then that.

My belief is if you took (hypothetically) 100 9s and 100 10s, cracked them all out and resubmitted them, there would be no statistical correlation between the first and the second grades.

I totally agree. I love purchasing/upgrading to higher grade cards, but with the way I collect I could never put all my money into 1 or 2 cards when there are so many I want...but that's just me.

FWIW, it is a tough card...during my professional ballcarding days, I owned scads of T206, a couple of Namath Rookies, but I never had a single Rose rookie walk into my shop.

A Rose rookie would have run, not walked.

There are 53 Roses on eBay and something tells me that if you are willing to spend $80K on a Rose card, you clearly have $80K to spend on a Rose card. There is a lot of money out there and people need to spend it some way. Personally, I would be happy with an 8 if collecting Rose was something you are in to.
