    That's because some collectors are still lying on the floor, out cold, waiting on the smelling salts.

  • Tight? No. Just not stupid. For example, one seller has this card 1971 Deacon Jones for $25. That's a reasonable price for that card. You might find it for less, but it still is a fair price. Another seller is selling the same card in the same grade here for $750. Now, not buying this one is not the collector being "tight". This is the collector not being an idiot.

  • yep, the method of sale seems to be buy low, double the price and put a BIN and then sit on it...

    Who in their right mind would pay that amount?
  • soundgard, oh you'd be surprised. At least this seller gives free shipping, I'm shocked they don't have about a $15 shipping fee on top of the price. And, yes there are folks out there that willingly pay that too.
