Steve Which auction are you referring to? Also, look to the top, left side of the screen under the CU - messge boards Icon and you will see a lock box that will blink red on and off to let you know that you have messages. your friend Mike
Here is the link to the auction you are referring to. The guy is new to selling and only sold two cards which were really nice and they were satisfied. The only thing I can think of is the fact that he started the bidding with a high minimum or they don't love the scan as such. Not sure, but it seems like a good deal at about 50% smr? your friend Mike
<< <i>I'd venture a guess that no Paypal, a high opening bid, and $17.50 shipping all contribute to the lack of bids. >>
Andy Good point...did not think to look at that...doesn't mean he isn't honest but it does add a little excitement to the buy...even with the 17.60...it is still a good buy....I understand if one uses a postal money order, there is the possiblity of leveraging the guy with mail fraud if he doesn't deliver? your friend Mike
Ended without a bid. I was watching it, and want the card, but I was uncomfortable with the no PayPal, and $17.50 to ship a single slab is an insult to one's intelligence.

What do you think?
Only one week ago this very card did not get a single bid starting at $225
