Does anyone feel the asking price for this card is a bit high considering it’s ungraded? There’s a PSA 9 that’s only 500 more. The card looks to be warped to some degree also, not even including any whitening or scuffing. I asked the seller how low they would go and I think it’s safe to say they won’t drop below 2-2.5k euro at the very least…

I mean…
there is a “Best Offer” option. Looks like to me he’s fishing around to see how much he could get. I’m sure he’s aware of the factors you listed, thus why he has the offer option.

Lot’s of French collectors. I think this guy is just going to sit on it until a French collector overpays.

I know. I sent one and he replied saying I was far far off his minimum accept at 1k Euro so yeah

Do French collectors usually overpay?

From what I hear French dealers are expensive and they grade very loose. I have met a few big French collectors here in Japan and that’s what they told me.

I can definitely agree on this, especially the grading part.
I buy from French collectors regularly and they always think their cards are 1; worth more, 2; in better condition than they really are haha
