1957 Topps Hit Stars #51 Buddy Holly and The Crickets 'Rookie'

$200 is definitely a new sales record for a raw (and extremely o/c) copy. WOW!

Wow, probably not a card guy who purchased it. Nice card I would want in a PSA 9 or 10!

$200? The link shows $45 for final price.

lol, oops, heres the $200 copy, very clean but super o/c, the $45 card is also surprising considering the flaking corners and deep scratch.

Looks like two collectors were willing to go a little over $200 to insure victory; never thinking they'd really have to pay that much.

The $45 is more in line with the value (although clearly growing); even factoring in the high auction, which depended on the rare confluence of two idiots to reach.

The seller is happy when rare confluences happen.
