Boy, its getting tough when you don't meet $100+ reserves on PSA 8 commons. I just bid $125 on a 1971 Topps #743 O'Donoghue in PSA 8 and noticed on the "Items Watching" screen that that was the final price. Lo and behold, I open the auction and find I didn't meet the reserve. For the record, there are 8 8's and 1 9 of this card.

    The last 8 I saw on ebay sold for around $170. I think Chris R. bought it.

    Contact the seller off-line and make him an offer.

    I wish I had started a thread about the true value of Low Pop commons. image

    Coming soon to an E-bay site with which I am familiar, a PSA 8 1971 #577 Jim Lonborg. 1 of 5. No reserve to worry about.

    Whoa! That should fetch a nice price! As I recall the Claude Raymond and the Jim Lonborg are the top two toughest commons. A couples weeks ago, a PSA 8 Raymond went for something like $540 on eBay. Good luck!

    Just a month ago, there were only 3 PSA 8 Lonborgs out there. The pop has almost increased 100% in the last few weeks.
