The beauty of the market economy at work. Long run this is a $50 card or less IMO.

Agreed. Even though it's a fairly high pop even now, only something like 4 or 5 have come to market since the HOF announcement. My guess is that there's some impatience setting in among registry participants. And PSA turnaround times are so slow it may be months before the 1000 hit the market. I put in what I considered to be an absurd bid because of my own impatience and missed by more than $100.

I bought a raw one out of protest lol.

I doubt 9s get back to the 15-17 dollar mark again, but they should settle into the 35-45 by Christmas or so in my belief. The days of 40-50 dollar 10s are gone, those are likely 100-150 when they settle.

I think that's right and that Baines will follow a similar pattern. I am surprised more Smiths have not been put up given the crazy prices they are fetching.

If there is a variation, Al will find it.
Nice!
