Stephen Strasburg 1/1 Serisously ? 1mil bux ?

richtree · June 25, 2010 6:56AM

whats this about ?

S.Strasburg 1/1 bidding

digicat · June 25, 2010 7:00AM

Stasburg broke the all-time Wins, Strikeouts, and Shutout records last night. Not only that, he lead the Nats to 45 straight World Series championships in his 4 game career.

He's the greatest of all time.

Why can't I pull something like this .... it would change my life..... I hope the seller is a good guy that needs the cash

johnny1976 · June 25, 2010 7:07AM

I think that seller will be a little upset unless those bids are legit.

richtree · June 25, 2010 7:12AM

theres gotta be a legit bid somewhere in there ...

MeteoriteGuy · June 25, 2010 7:12AM

Top two bidders each have over 500 feedback.

SDavid · June 25, 2010 7:14AM

If the bidding isn't legit, the seller should come on here and post the identities of every jerk off who posted a bid just to screw up his auction. Some of those ebayers are bound to be sellers as well. Turnabout is fair play.

WinPitcher · June 25, 2010 7:15AM

The top bidder and the seller could be the same person.

Both have JP in the name.

coincidence?

If I was the seller I'd end the auction with the highest legit bid.

richtree · June 25, 2010 7:16AM

oh the drama....lol

hammered · June 25, 2010 7:27AM

<< If I was the seller I'd end the auction with the highest legit bid. >>

absolutely
I'd even contact the high bid if it's legit, and offer to cut 100K off the price if he puts the money in escrow
I'd then end it, take my 900K and avoid the very real possibility of
1) jerk-offs ruining this in the final hour of bidding or
2) non-serious bidders driving it so high that the legit ones move away from the auction
Seller's gotta think that if the auction is ruined, winning bidder won't honor the bid, or if it's a kid messing around, etc he'd have to relist.
A lot can happen in the course of another week's auction - Stras can get hurt, or shelled, or even worse, a better 1/1 is pulled and comes on the market

lsutigers1973 · June 25, 2010 7:29AM

Wow! Another Strasburg thread. How many do we have for this card alone?

nightcrawler729 · June 25, 2010 7:30AM

How can you see the top buyer's name? I thought eBay masked that - the current top bidder was i***p?

mlbfan2 · June 25, 2010 7:40AM

Those bids are as fake as the lumps under Heidi Montag's blouse.

BuckeyeState · June 25, 2010 7:43AM

Next year Topps is planning on inserting 1987 Topps commons that Strasburg has touched into their flagship product, they are expected to sell for a month's salary.

diamondman · June 25, 2010 7:53AM

Well I'm calling my bank to see about a mortgage, so I can bid on the Superfractor Strasburg 1/1 because that one seems underpriced at 22,500. LOL

I just wonder when strasburg will tie or break Johnny Vander Meer's record of 2 consecutive No-hitters?, or break Ryan's record of 7
no- hitters?

I'd hate to be the buyer that tries to flip the 1,000,000 card for a profit.

I bet ebay is crying about the FVF :
1. You sell an item for $100.00.
2. Your final value fee is 9% of the final sale price, which is $9.00.

The maximum final value fee for auction-style listings is $50. For example, if you sell an item for $1,000, you’ll pay only $50, even though 9% of $1,000 is $90. LOL

I bet the IRS is watching this auction. because their FVF is higher than 50 bucks. LOL

Oh well wish it was my card, would definitely be hand delivering this baby (with bodyguards).

edited to say: Strasburg for cy young award and ROY award, ah lets just give it to him now.

MeteoriteGuy · June 25, 2010 8:02AM

Wonder if this makes my Saberhagen collection worth more.

Saberhagen....Strasburg. Strasburg...Saberhagen.

itzagoner · June 25, 2010 8:04AM

i'm starting to feel Strassed out.

MeteoriteGuy · June 25, 2010 8:15AM

The person that pulled it, should list the empty wrapper the card was once in. I bet that would go for an easy $20.

CarsonPalmer · June 25, 2010 8:25AM

this just seems outrageous...the seller definitely hit the lottery..lucky guy!

BugOnTheRug · June 25, 2010 8:31AM

in the end it will just be another incomplete ebay transaction.........

jswieton · June 25, 2010 12:34PM

This kind of sucks for the guy selling the card. These are obviously BS bids and the winner is not going to pay. The Hype of the card will probably drop in the up and coming week and will cost the seller thousands of dollars by the time he relists it.

Goot · June 25, 2010 1:14PM

Melbourne, FL?!?!! That's 15 minutes from me!

minors4me · June 25, 2010 1:25PM

the stras will be back down to 5 figures in a day or 2

digicat · June 25, 2010 1:40PM

Heh, there 215 bids last night. Now there are 157.

Looks like the seller is booting out some of the bidders for not contacting him.

digicat · June 25, 2010 5:25PM

Wow, the seller is really cleaning house, he's sacked enough bidders to bring the high bid down to $501k!

Boopotts · June 25, 2010 10:18PM

<< whats this about ?

It's about the Germans bombing Pearl Harbor.

If that means the remaining bidders did contact him and are serious, he should just end the bidding and sell it at its current price.

beef316 · June 26, 2010 3:18AM

Wonder how is verifying ability to pay? INSANITY.

The hi bidder has a decent rating and 100% positive. It would be amazing if the price holds.

While this is truly an out of control price, all of the talk has got to be great for the hobby.

bobbyw8469 · June 26, 2010 3:27AM

Not really. If the winning bid is a hoax, I don't see this helping the hobby at all. I see it doing more harm than good.

Estil · June 26, 2010 3:29AM

You could get about four 1952 Topps Mickey Mantles in PSA 10 for the current bid.

Albertdidit · June 26, 2010 8:36AM

Do you think it would have been better to start it at really high BIN price (with instant payment required) and also accept best offers?

vladguerrero · June 26, 2010 9:40AM

digicat · June 26, 2010 10:00AM

<< Do you think it would have been better to start it at really high BIN price (with instant payment required) and also accept best offers? >>

Best offers and Instant Payment don't work together. They should, but they don't.

Albertdidit · June 26, 2010 11:15AM

no i meant the instant payment if someone used the buy it now - and just take best offers on it - but i agree they should have an option if you agree to a best offer that the person pays for it and then listing ends

italianstallionyankees · June 26, 2010 11:19AM

Compared to the Bgs 9.5 1/1 superfractor this card is Bgs 10.0!
It might sell for 2x the price if graded!
