Just got this baby this morning. I wanted to get a nice MS65/66 toner for my 40% silver type slot. I wanted to buy certified because of the number of artifically toned examples. I found this one and the dealer had it priced at $300. After some back and forth I got it for $115. Thoughts? Also, for those interested, it is a slight Class 2 DDR as well.

I basically asked what their best price was and they kinda let it slip they just wanted it gone. I basically pressured them lower and lower, they had put it on a flash sale a few weeks ago for $200 and no sale so I used that as leverage and pushed it further and further down till I found their break even price and bought it there. Aggressive purchasing? Yes. But it worked.
