Those asses on ebay are ruining the market right now! The 7’s were selling for 7-9k just a few weeks ago and ran out–there were none for a few days and those 2 guys listed 'em for 20k and 17k, so now everything psychologically thinks 14k is a great deal! Geez! Good for you, bad for anyone who wants a 7 (MEEEE!)!
To be fair, a 4 was paid for at $6.4k two weeks ago. I’m not sure why anyone would list a 7 at $7-9k after seeing that… Block 9 auction archive. I’m settling for a lower grade now, it’s not a horrible feeling once you mentally adjust. www.pwccmarketplace.com/items/2420819
Haha your response cracked me up. I know, I know. But here’s the thing…
I have a 6. I basically want to trade it for a 7. I want to complete the set PSA 7. The Zard is about the only real obstacle in my way. All the others aren’t too bad. Need a Blastoise, but he’s not so brutal. Have all but Blastoise, Zard, Hitmonchan (he’s super tough to find).
And I know, I saw that 4… that was beyond my comprehension. It was PWCC as you noted, and it sold at the exact same time was a 6 that sold for basically the same price. No idea how or why. Boggles the mind. But the 7’s I mentioned sold about a week or 2 prior to that. Biggest regret of the last few months is not pulling the trigger on the thick stamp I watched down to the very last second on auction. Ended at 7.9. Seriously slitting my wrists over that
There was literally 2 available today below that price point, maybe it was a strong 8 with regrade potential? There was a copy up for around $30k CAD that got delisted only half an hour ago. The owner probably saw this and ended the listing immediately.
