Yeah it was kinda crazy to see so many go up for auction.

I just needed to say… I f*cking hate Goldin’s platform. It is the slowest, clunkiest auction website to date.

The faded 7.5 copy sold for more than this BGS 9 & barely over a month apart. With another one ending in 2 weeks on the same site.

There’s still a good amount available via bin too atm. Wonder if they’re going to lower their prices :thinking:

I would buy one if I didn’t need food or shelter or retirement. Curse this frail human body of flesh and blood. I crave the strength and certainty of steel.

I read a story a few months ago about a new technology that makes it possible to create real diamonds in a lab, looks like they also find new technology to create Pikachu illustrators in a lab👀

That’s a beautiful copy though :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:… a quarter million dollar is still a very high price considering what you can do with this amount :house:. In all cases, a much better price than the one sold in the past years :sob:.

Do we have a running counter somewhere :melting_face:

I didn’t look up the cert and check the back but those definitely look like 10 fronts

Why are so many popping up for auction lately?
