coop,

Or you could just sell it to me for face value, I would even pay shipping!

just carl,

The one I did buy is raw, I am not worried though, the seller has a 10 day return policy and very good feedback. I figured for 380 bucks I would take the chance. I would like to own the rest of the series but I think the wife would not be happy if I had to re-mortgage the house for the 1909 VDB MPL.

Now if only Dansco and other book makers put a spot in the books for these the prices would skyrocket

I'd say they would skyrocket. The surfaces of the matte proofs is delicate and very prone to spotting and discoloration. Put them in Danscos and very quickly the number of nice pieces would plummet to a fraction of the small number it is today.
