While I understand this card should have sold at a premium compared to some of the recent sales because it was a high end example, I find the amount of the premium and the timing a bit suspect. The first PWCC Premier Auction was pretty disappointing, with surprisingly low prices pretty much across the board. That had to have hurt PWCC's reputation and their fledgling in-house auction service. Then suddenly they have a couple of record selling prices in their next Premier Auction.
