    Well, right now it has an opening bid of $99, and no bidders. I don't see any profit as of yet.

    Unless some novice hits the "Buy it Now", I wonder if he will realize much if any profit on this sale. I don't see any reserve, so it could end at $99 if he only gets one bid.
    I collect Vintage Cards, Commemorative Sets, and way too many vintage and modern player collections in Baseball (180 players), Football (175 players), and Basketball (87 players). Also have a Dallas Cowboy team collection.

    I would replace "dumb" with "uninformed", in your diatribe.

    Dang, I hate it when I make a profit on a card......c'mon man - a card is only worth what someone is willing to pay for it!

    if it sells, you're bitter
    if it does not, you're smart


    either way, your a jealous anti-capitalist

    I think you may have a typo in your link. The Lelands site lists for $355. I suspect that he will not get either.
    It may be an 8, but certainly not a well centered version.
    He is counting that eBay has a bigger population of collectors and that several high $ players for the card don't get Leland's stuff. Seems a risky proposition. Also, if you were the one will to pay the most for it just a month ago and the price was not ridiculously low, then it seems likely that no one will be willing to pay a lot more one month later. A calculated risk. My guess is he losses money.

    That sums up my question, wouldn't everyone try an do this? I picked up a lower pop (than zauchin) PSA 8 for 180 (when all was said and done). My thoughts were that the heavy hitters on ebay would know about the lelnads auction, maybe I am tkaing their intelligence for granted. image As far as him making a profit, no problem with the Republican here, just very curious as to how this one is going to end. Think I'll bid the 99, won' that wipe out the ridiculously high buy it now?

    edited; do we not like this guy slabbed? Thought people mentioned him before???
