The best Christmas gift to myself ever!
Frst off, I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas. This morning I bought myself something really nice and just wanted to share it with you guys. I know I likely overpaid but I've been eyeing this card for a while and I finally pulled the trigger. The seller had it listed with a BIN and no best offer option. I sent him a message stating that I couldn't do the BIN and if he would bring it down $50. He said ok and now I got an auto of my guy! Never started a PC of him because I knew it would be too expensive, but I have a few or his RC's and now an auto. Here are the pics, looks so much better in person!

Nice card I don't think you over paid as it seems about right since there were only 9 made and it's BGS graded.
