Nice to see one of US on the right side of the bidding war!
STAY HEALTHY!

Liquidating my collection for the 3rd and final time. Time for others to enjoy what I have enjoyed over the last several decades. Money could be put to better use.
I'm just trying to figure out how hard the under bidder was working to get all of those bids in during the last few minutes... Carpal Tunnel may be in his future.
Sweet deal for you. How much were you expecting the card to go for?

It's quite simple, the seller would have had to pay about $50 for a box and hope he'd get a gradable Jeter. Along with a $15 grading fee, he's spending a lot of time and money hoping for that. So let off on the "no brains" comments. It's a lot easier buying it already graded.
I wander if the high bidder is saying to himself if I only waited 3 minutes to place a bid I could of gotten this card a whole lot cheaper. Congradulations on the sale.

I bet they used the 1 click bidding.. It already puts the next highest bid in for you..

I hope the same guy is watching my 2009 Topps Jeter PSA 10 Pop 1 that ends tonight!
EDIT: holy crap, I just realized the bidder who lost Bill's auction is the current high bidder on mine. Good stuff! The card is at $15.50 right now, which is about what I expected it to be.

No brains does seem harsh but little self control and no patience seem accurate. He could have waited 6 months and pick it up for $30 probably.

If I was the high bidder I'd be looking sideways at the bid history... some people, lol.
Congrats on the sale.
