<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Marshall, post: 1052441, member: 21705&quot;]I think the bidders are better graders than the seller. It went for approximately F-15 net money ($1300) and that&#039;s about what it looks like to me. The XF/AU was dramatic over grading of the details and that&#039;s before deductions for condition. I&#039;m assuming that there is some porosity along with a few dings. It isn&#039;t safe to assume otherwise from poor photos.</p><p><br /></p><p>Of course, that&#039;s just my opinion.</p><p><br /></p><p>Now here is another similar example:</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?type=3&amp;campid=5335874456&amp;toolid=10001&amp;mpre=http%3A%2F%2Fcgi.ebay.com%2Fws%2FeBayISAPI.dll%3FViewItem%26rt%3Dnc%26nma%3Dtrue%26item%3D200549735535%26si%3D4hB8cK9Yv6vJi50UdpfqY%25252BmpdZE%25253D%26viewitem%3D%26sspagename%3DSTRK%253AMEWNX%253AIT" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?type=3&amp;campid=5335874456&amp;toolid=10001&amp;mpre=http%3A%2F%2Fcgi.ebay.com%2Fws%2FeBayISAPI.dll%3FViewItem%26rt%3Dnc%26nma%3Dtrue%26item%3D200549735535%26si%3D4hB8cK9Yv6vJi50UdpfqY%25252BmpdZE%25253D%26viewitem%3D%26sspagename%3DSTRK%253AMEWNX%253AIT" rel="nofollow">http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&amp;rt=nc&amp;nma=true&amp;item=200549735535&amp;si=4hB8cK9Yv6vJi50UdpfqY%252BmpdZE%253D&amp;viewitem=&amp;sspagename=STRK%3AMEWNX%3AIT</a></p><p><br /></p><p>This appears to have been PROPERLY called VF details (about where I would detail grade the subject) which would make it worth $1500+. But you have to assume porosity with a darkly lighted or out of focus image. Thus, this sold for ~$360 with shipping or about G-4 money. For that, I couldn&#039;t go wrong as long as it&#039;s genuine. Of course, I knew it&#039;s a slightly rarer variety (R4) without the premium it should command, even in G-4. I think I did well, but not Killer.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
