So from time to time I take an interest in looking at pricing history of oddball cards. I saw this item in the last sterling auction:

And noticed the same exact card sold 9ish months earlier in Goodwin:

Market structure is always an interesting topic to me - What do you guys think happened here? Buyer's remorse? Quick flip? From the sales price this looks like a deal I normally do (Buy at one price, sell at a much lower price).

Just looking for opinions on an otherwise uneventful (for me) day.

Thinly traded issues can have bigger ups and downs, from my experiences. Not that I ever had any....
From my current collection :)

No reason to speculate. I have have been forthright about selling my collection.

I have come to the decision to sell my card collection prior to doing so I was collecting an Evers "e98 image" run. I knew that selling my collection would cause some loss especially when it came to cards that I had recently acquired. This happens because sometimes all it takes for a card price to go down is for one person not to bid. Yet other items I had for sale in that same auction sold for more than I had paid because I had held on to them longer. It is just the way it goes.

I will admit, though, that even though I am trying to sell off I am tempted to buy and ended up with a single card in that auction. I have no idea why I did it other than habits are hard to break, haha.
