Why is this Lou Brock so much?

This card only books raw for $30 in the 2004 SCD catelog. Why so high? Am I missing something?

    The Brock is 1971 Topps Greatest Moments and they are tough to find in nice condition. The seller has several of the cards listed currently. This is another case of where the price guides do not match up to the market for these condition sensitive sets. I don't know about the Brock specifically but many of these are tough to find period.

    Only 33 examples of this card have been graded. Of those, there are 13 PSA 6's, 10 PSA 7's, 1 PSA 7Q, and 3 PSA 8Q's. Kinda steep but it is rare indeed! image

    No offense to the SCD people but a lot of the rarer items are priced well below what they actually sell for. A good reference book to use to see what the items look like, but pricing is only somewhat reliable. JMO

    I had to pay $24 for a Gibson that was around EX condition. And the SCD books it at (I think) around $30 in NM. Anybody have a Brock they want to sell even in low grade?

    I have no idea, but if you think it's too much, dont buy it.
    Running an Ebay store sure takes a lot more time than a person would think!

    Oh, I won't be buying that. I will try to find one under $50. That's why I was asking about it, because I really don't won't to pay $40 or $50 for one that's beat up.
