Seller's best friend! And bidder #2 isn't doing too bad in the bid retraction department either. I guess they're battling for the league lead.

I thought the Brett at the time of the National was a POP 2...not sure if that is the same one Chris bought.
Thanks

<< <i>why would you pass up 10 grand for that card? and on top of it you now have the feds involved!!!!!!!! >>
Why would the feds be involved? I guess if reserve was actually met, such a large sale might flag the IRS. Maybe the seller is trying to avoid taxes and the ebay fees at the same time.
This one smells strange.
anything over 9,999 is automatically reported to the irs!by the bank!i would be willing to bet that ebay has to report such sales too?

so if goerge foster was visiting the hall of fame at the exact time of listing is he technically in the hall?

<< <i>How does the IRS know how much the seller paid for the card? They could have bought it for $13k and sold it for $12k for a net loss of $1k. >>
If you collect trading cards for recreation and pleasure, and you sell any of the hobby collection items, your gain is taxable as a capital gain on your tax return. However, if you sell items from your hobby collection at a loss, you cannot deduct a net loss on your tax return.
heh
It's a reputable seller and they take credit cards. Could be
an opportunity to make a couple grand if you've got the $10K...
One of these days were all going to look back on the mythical distinctions between high end '8's' and '10''s, and just laugh.
<< <i>I like Joe Tuttle, and think he's a nice guy-- but I can't believe he scored a 10 on this card given the centering. Just can't believe it.

You are correct. I will tell you that I prefer this one to the last one, however. There is no doubt that in most cases there is no difference between a deserving 9 and a 10. Three times I have turned an 8 into a 10 on re-submission. Another board member and I playfully keep score of such things on our 77 & 75 sets respectively and we're tied after a recent submission 3 apiece. There seems to be a BIG, too big, a difference between graders these days. I will split 60 cards into two different invoices and the softer cards get all 9's and a slew of 10's while the blazing perfect cards get 9's and a sprinkling of 8's on the other stronger invoice. It is the one thing I whine about the most and truly angers me about the grading industry--primarily PSA as that is my company of choice. The 10's are money cards and make a 70's submission worthwhile. When you send the best you should get the best grades. Too bad there's no way to get consistency above a crap-shoot. It sure keeps my submission size smaller as I'm not a gambler by nature.
I don't think it's who you are when submitting as much as who you get. Joe Tuttle get's his share of the "other" grader, I'm sure.

I have no idea what your response means, so I won't comment on it. I will say, however, that if it's some kind of veiled insult stemming from our dispute in October re: the Yankees, then you need to quit sniveling, wipe your nose, and move on.
Thanks,

Boopots, the point of my post was actually to AGREE with you in that very often, it's almost impossible to discern the difference between 8s and 10s, and when it comes to 9s and 10s, you may as well flip a coin. Your contention that we'll all laugh at the 'mythtical differences' one day down the road is something I believe will come to fruition, but in the meantime, my reference to sipping the koolaid was aimed at the current state of the hobby being brainwashed and instead of thinking for ourselves, going to where the money is.
