    Holy Crap. He/she must have taken advantange of a pricing mistake.

    The WSCT is now officially a joke. The "Auction Arbitrage" is one thing, but this is ridiculous. My condolences, Tassa!

    1964 50¢ in ms 66 went from $100 to $10500. If he had all of those it would do it.

    Russ,

    If he sells them before the price change you could pick them up and guarantee yourself last place image

    It would be an interesting twist to this contest if you could only sell coins that someone actually wanted to buy. image

    So do you suppose they will correct that one, or has he won for the year. 10K on a typo, gotta love it.
    Witty sig line currently under construction. Thank you for your patience.

    What's amazing is the guy still hasn't sold them! image Hell, he should be long another 8mil. in other coins.

    I see a few other people with HUGE gains overnight as well. I wonder if there was another pricing mistake. No one is gaining 350K in a day in this market.

    I think if he does, the profit evaporates. The price guide still shows $10.5K, but the watch listed has been adjusted to $105.

    So you were not able to get a buy price of $10,500 for the 22 that were left?

    I did get them while it was still $10.5K, but a few minutes later they vanished from my portfolio.

    I just got an eMail from Jaime to let me know he removed them, and apologizing for the pricing error. Damn! I guess I'll have to find some other way to get to last place. image

    I figured Jaime would at least feature you in a Rare Coin Market Report article called "How to lose 90% of your rare coin investment in only 9 months."

    Uh...DOOFUS....You buy coins that you believe will sell higher in auction...ergo, if they DO SELL HIGHER (like someone wanted it) then you sell if the price guide goes up.

    It's hypothetical based on reality...image
