i wouldnt be surprised if it went to 130k+

Rarest? No. Un-graded you can pick one up for $800-$1200 all day...

^yup. there's probably less than 3 in existence right now with a grade of 10.
great collectors piece.
Graded a 10 by BGS, this is the only one, hence why it is going for so much. There are probably 10's that are graded by not so known/cheapcompanies, but people don't want those as much....BGS is the best/strictest company.

I have a huge collection of baseball cards and I can tell you that grading and 1000's of inserts did indeed ruin the hobby. As stated in SI, Jeter had 8 RCcards in 1993. 8 years later, Pujols had 43 RC cards.... (2001 Bowman chrome auto Pujols RC graded a gem 10 goes for $25K. Considered the most prolific card inthe last century)

The value of this card will only get higher as time passes.
Exactly!

No dents on the corners whatsoever, all 4 corners have to be completely sharp, not even slightly rounded. The same with the edges. No scratches or dents, andthe centering has to be perfect, 50/50 on both left/right and top/bottom. And this set is has some centering issues.
 
You might as well just showcase 100 grand on your shelf.

Edit: I can just picture the guys on the shop at home network from a few years ago..THIS CARD IS A @^#$%$#%!! GEM MINT TEN! GEM MINT TEN I$#%ING SAID! YOU'LL NEVER SEE THIS AGAIN AND IT'S YOURS FOR JUST 700 EASY PAYMENTS OF $50!
