Should I be worried about this....

I just bought this card tonight...

Card I just bought

Same card found on VCP

Same card, same seller, one hundred dollars less...hmmm???

matthewbschultz83 · April 11, 2009 11:11AM

Possible the orginal buyer never paid and you got lucky and got it for 100 less?

PoppaJ · April 11, 2009 11:14AM

Hi Ryan,

First of all, that's a pretty nice price for that card @ $125!

I'd certainly ask the seller the same questions you are asking us.

Did the last buyer reneg?

Why the low BIN now?

Hope it all works out in your favor!

Seller looks good, I wouldn't be worried. Curious, yes. Worried, no.

Thats why I pulled the trigger, saw $125 for an 8..I paid that for my 7! Checked VCP.. saw sales and bought card..then after buying I just happened to click to see other ones won recently, and saw this auction..and it freaked me out a little.

Seller could have made a mistake with his buy it now price.

A nice gesture would be to send him an extra $ 100 with your payment ...

Make sure it isnt a stock photo and you end up with a hideous 8.

Ryan, no worries at all. I know the guy - Vic Stanley, I have talked with him extensivly at shows before and done plenty of bussiness with him as well. He is an honest good dealer.

With his feedback and your experiences with him, I feel better.

Great seller, no worries

BigDaddyBowman · April 12, 2009 2:21AM

Vic emailed me and assured me that I would be receiving the card pictured...so my worry level has subsided!

good to hear!

alnavman · April 12, 2009 3:12AM

nice looking card Ryan.....Happy Easter to you and your family and all the other "threaders" out there

BigDaddyBowman · April 12, 2009 3:19AM

thanks Al...you too!

minnesotahusker · April 12, 2009 9:32AM

Still fairly new to these boards...but can someone please let me know what VCP is? Thanks

swartz1 · April 12, 2009 9:42AM

So...if I understand VCP correctly...this "bargain" will not show up in their database because it is a buy it now item??

thus skewing price? anybody? thanks in advance...

VCP is Vintage Card pricing website

I believe that is correct.

Yes, the sale will drop all values of PSA 8's now. I actually have this idea to list my PSA 8 Ryan rookie and buy it from myself for $400 thus reducing the overall price for the future and hope that I can buy them all day at that price from other sellers.

BobbyVCP · April 12, 2009 3:18PM

That card is in our system and it will show up. We do cover BIN's and BO's just not in the stores as of yet.

WinPitcher · April 12, 2009 9:53PM

Umm Bobby maybe you should explain how VCP works.

I was under the impression that the lowest sale and the highest sale are not used and then all the other sales
are then averaged out. Of course that is with cards with many sales. Like a PSA 8 Ryan.

seller!

Bet you should get the card in the scan! (I imagine the earlier deal just fell thru?)

Too cheap! Good deal for you!

P.S. I'd say on any given day, that card could easily sell for 200+ bucks!

Should I be worrried about this?
