Quoted from leckmeck:Broken plastic on the lower right sling, faded and blemished apron, assorted cabinet nicks, and the worn area (planking/graining) below the left pop bumper. It’s the last thing that harms it the most. Still, pretty nice. But not $7k nice.
There is a point with hard to find items where those small things tend to not affect price all that much. It’s hard to explain but the harder something is to find, the less condition affects the overall price of the item. If there are 90 or 5, condition is less “expected” than a game where they made 5,000. In fact, I would rather own a a decent players condition original over a restored rare piece any day.
