If the hobby were a business and sellers determined all the prices than the price for this card could be surprising I suppose. But since many collectors don't look at the hobby as a business they're not abiding by any such 'rules' and pay what they like!

Some people (I'm not saying you) become conditioned to think that only certain cards are expensive, but the hobby is way too complicated and complex for that.

To you its worth fifty bucks, clearly you don't understand why someone else would pay more, thus the reason you started this thread. I don't understand why people pay for some cards (like prospects?!) either, but hey, there it is.

^^ I agree, not surprising...I see stupid stuff all the time...still a $50 card though

agreed, i think the mass majority of people that collect GU and DO have these players in their collection, that they would feel it is a crazy high price (including the inidividual that won a #/18 for $20), or were you saying you thought it was a fair price?

My hobby rule #1 is "collect what you want, but understand what you're collecting" :lol:
