A little much for me...

If ayone bids on this they are an idiot!!

Also, I would think that selling a card for that high a price would garner a little higher quality scan or photo. What a terrible listing!!

This is just simply insane. I just don't get it. It just amazes me at how many cards are listed on eBay at prices that will never be realized. I would think that, at some point, the sellers would actually want to sell cards, not just display them.

he may have gotten $700 for the masterpiece back in 1997 - I once traded for two Flair 1/1 Greers from a guy asking $400 cash each. I ended up giving him almost $1000 book value in trade (this was in 1999).
The question is, what would you hit on these for? I would give $300 and $100, but thats pushing it in my opinion.

[Gonzaleznut]

I would do $150 for the 1/1 and $100 for the Starting 9 card.

I wish a true early Will Clark 1/1 got listed for only $700. It would be snatched up in no time. As high as that is, that's when 1/1's mattered and would be a highlight to any collection. Don't you guys think it's worth at least $400 to $500??

I saw it listed and immediately came over here to see what you guys thought of it.

I hate 1/1's whats the point of paying that kind of cash on 1 card? no one will ever complete all the 1/1's! i would rather spend 700 bucks on 5 numbered to 5 cards! the prime 9...well burbank has alot of numbered to 5 cards listed for 300. and they have been listed for years that way.and just sit! here are 3 more MORON sellers. i do not like name calling but, it is what it is,THE TRUTH!

It's funny , the prices are consider too high , however at the time to negotiate with the cards in hands of some of the collectors in this site $200.00 or 250.00 for secondary market cards #'d 1/1 or even some oddball stuff , they want you to believe it's the greatest deal , on the other hand you could be called an idiot if you bid on others people cards . Let's face it, they are expensive, but also the real deal ! Maybe they just want to show off their cards and put those prices so nobody bids on them , but if somebody does, then it's a great deal for them . Same as some of the collectors in this site , they said they will consider to sell their cards just to make everybody look into their collection , but when you make an offer they retract inmediately.

On your mark, get set, Go!

Roberto,

I agree with you. Money talks and BS walks. If someone wants to pay and own a card they will. I pay $800 for a 1/2 tank of fuel so that I can spend $20 to take my wife out to lunch on the boat. I take the boat out almost every week. Not logical but that is what I enjoy and I really don't care what the price of fuel is or what anyone else thinks. Baseball cards are no different. The prices are not to high if someone wants the card. Card collectors are probabably a few french fries short of a Happy Meal anyway. The intrinsic value of a card has to be less than a penny a piece so there has to be more to it than just the cardboard and an insane price. It's a hobby. I like the few cards that I have but I do not have as many as most of you. Rob, a person is not a moron because they will or will not sell a card.
