GAI's site has a scan of it in the Dmitri Young section
Looking for Jonny Gomes cards, especially Triple Threads and printing plates. Will consider all cards, though. Got something? Contact me at c_u_l_1@yahoo.com
The scan is distinctly different than the one on the GAI website, but I still suspect shady dealings in the auction.
It would seem very odd for Dmitri Young to liquidate a single card in his collection like that on eBay. Heck, why would he sell any of them, he couldn't possibly need the money. He made $8M last year and he'll make $8.5M this year and something tells me the most prestine Rod Carew rookie card in the world would still be like pocket change to someone with that much income.
And if he were selling them all, I would take a guess that they would find their way to Mastro or REA, as he certainly went through them at some point to acquire some of those cards.
I agree the auction looks like a scam. Does GAI really think the card will be worth more if it has anyones name on it? Dmitri Young? The guy is an average plus baseball player. Sorry Dmitri. I wouldn't pay more for that card or any other from a player, movie star, etc collection. It's not like it is an MVP, silver slugger or world series ring.

Interesting. Raises the question how much of a premium would a person pay for a card from a professional athlete (or other celebrity) collection!? I think people would pay extra for that. I am not a D-Young fan but I still found the notion intriguing and considered a bid... and I don't even collect GAI.
<< <i> The guy is an average plus baseball player. Sorry Dmitri. I wouldn't pay more for that card or any other from a player, movie star, etc collection. It's not like it is an MVP, silver slugger or world series ring. >>
the worst player in the majors is a GREAT baseball player...He is in the top .001% of all baseball players in the world.
is this the dmitri young the baseball player? didn't this guy whack a sausage during the mascot race a few years back? i think he had like 3 hr's on opening day last year too??

I am actively buying MIKE SCHMIDT gem mint baseball cards. Also looking for any 19th century cabinets of Philadephia Nationals. Please PM with additional details.
Heh. If any of you have some "family" members in Italy, this would be a great time to say "Hey, My uncle lives near you, he said that he'd send a couple of his guys to deliver payment and pick up the card for me. What's your address?"

That's a good question. Judging by prices realized, I think people pay way too much of a premium. At least in this case, you know the person who owned it... as opposed to that Mr. X garbage on the over-graded T206's.

I guess GAI will have to work out a few more private gradings for dealers to make up for it...

I requested a scan of the back of the card-----as i bet the horses on a daily basis, i'm betting i don't get a scan of the back.

It's obvious Dmitri Young has sold off his GAI cards so he can join the PSA family. We should be focused on this.
Let's all give Da Meahook a warm PSA welcome!
GO MARLINS! Home of the best fans in baseball!!
