To me, getting these classic hard to get cards are more satisfactory than any "1 of 1" card, unless they are one of the original flair masterpiece cards.
My point would be that a 1/1 is truly the only one. All other cards have various numbers of copies out there. I would never pay $115 for a card that I truly believe I could acquire much cheaper someday. Kevin shows what diligence, patience, and creative thinking can get you. In this game those are valuable traits. I cannot tell you how many "rare" cards I have found over the years by being patient. Juan cards will only get cheaper as time goes on which is fine with me because I never looked at collecting Juan as an investment. Luckily I am not in a hurry to complete my collection. I enjoy the hunt.
