I know a few collectors who will be selling parts of there collections due to hard economic times. Wish I could afford that Babe :)

Looks like the same card from this old Legendary listing. Seller even stole part of the auction description. Link (http://www.legendaryauctions.com/LotDetail.aspx?lotid=39492)

Looks like they only figured out how to use half of the scanner bed.

Apparently, the final bid should take care of the house payment.

I confess...it was me. I couldn't resist that card for under 6 figures. Nice bidding pattern there.

Wow! Did that card really sell for 8100.00 in 2004? Nice Profit.

At the end of all this, I would love to see the chain of communications between ebay, the seller and the high bidder.

Here is my concern:
The feedback rating in the link on the high bidder is 0%, so I assume it is a bidder that has not bid in a long period of time. The bidder percentage with this buyer is now 100.00 % which is over 70% higher than when I checked on it yesterday.

Regardless of the auction, this is a great card, one that in my mind is far superior to the M101-4/5 Ruth. It is much scarcer, and comes from the same time. It also has a better image.

The bidding history makes me suspect too. Zero feedback always raises a red flag, legit or not. If I won this auction, I would be tempted to open a case....$40K is alot of money.
