    I'll have to find out if by pure gold he means 24 karat gold before I place my bid

    Edited: to sound even more sarcastic.

    Gold?

    Why not throw in your first born to boot?

    There does not appear to have been any reason for selecting what was sent to PSA in the lot if you look through the extended pictures posted in his web link in the listing description, as if someone just said "Here's an entire collection, send every single one of them to PSA no matter what." Proof? Who the heck slabs a 1989 Bowman Dave Winfield PSA 3 VG? The list goes on, but there are a lot of cards not remotely worth the grading fees in that lot.

    I'd bid if there were a few Kevin Maas RC's in there image

    Yeah I was laughing pretty hard when I looked through the pictures of the graded cards. Not only was there a PSA 3 89 Bowman Dave Winfield, but there were several PSA 8's of the card as well. I like Dave Winfield as much as the next guy but how many low grade 89 Bowmans does a guy need?

    $15K

    Can't decide whether that's a good price or not? Gold is worth let's say $1250 an ounce (?), so I guess that puts the cards at $1 per card.

    I saw a PSA 10 Griffey UD and a PSA 10 Chrome Harper auto, those are probably $250-300 each, if there's a few more like that in there I could easily see an "average" of $1 per card. There's a bunch of 10 glavines and johnsons, any Ryan in a holder should sell for a few bucks, every little bit would help.

    I actually think someone may have gotten a nice deal here, even at $15k. How long's it gonna take to move those 8,700 cards out? How long will it take to sort through them all?

    Sure hoping someone here bought it, just so we can watch updates as they get resold.

    And I wonder how these things are going to be shipped? I guess on a pallet, 8700 cards would be like 60 shoe boxes at least.

    You guys are hilarious. Porn and Kevin Maas both mentioned in the same thread. I wonder if there are any PSA 9 1989 Topps Gregg Jefferies RCs in the lot as well. image
    "Nobody's ever gone the distance with Creed, and if I can go that distance, you see, and that bell rings and I'm still standin', I'm gonna know for the first time in my life, see, that I weren't just another bum from the neighborhood."
  • I am no CPA, but, its quite possible a 1%er could buy the lot sell off the Gold and donate the cards for a sizable tax deduction and come out way ahead. Can any CPA's confirm the possibility of this theory?
  • I now know why PSA takes a while grading cards because of multiple 89 Bowman Winfields, Browning Neagle, Topps Attax cards and other examples in the pics.
