It is all about finding that right buyer at the right time. I have seen some sellers selling their cards for 10-20% lower than heritage price because they are desperate for money.
On the other hand, heritage final price cannot be used as FMV on cards which are not rare such as Diamond Anniversary and Cognac diamond. A PSA 10 cognac diamond sold for $4440 (hammer price + BP) at heritage auction yesterday. Good luck to a seller who wants to sell his/her PSA 10 cognac diamond at ebay for $4440 because recent ebay sales are around $3,000

What do you think caused the premium price for the PSA 10 Cognac sold through Heritage? That is a substantial premium for a card that is available regularly on eBay.
