Posted By: <b>Brian</b><p>It looks like 80% of the hammer is due to the pissing contest between the last two bidders. Sniping stops this silliness. <br /><br /><br /><br />lynn_patgolf ( 49) US $316.00 Aug-09-05 13:09:28 PDT <br /> <br /> <br /> clinkerf ( 76) US $311.00 Aug-09-05 13:57:25 PDT <br /> <br /> <br /> clinkerf ( 76) US $301.00 Aug-09-05 13:42:49 PDT <br /> <br /> <br /> clinkerf ( 76) US $271.00 Aug-09-05 13:41:41 PDT <br /> <br /> <br /> clinkerf ( 76) US $251.00 Aug-09-05 13:41:14 PDT <br /> <br /> <br /> clinkerf ( 76) US $221.00 Aug-09-05 13:39:27 PDT <br /> <br /> <br /> clinkerf ( 76) US $202.00 Aug-09-05 13:39:04 PDT <br /> <br /> <br /> clinkerf ( 76) US $111.00 Aug-09-05 12:18:44 PDT <br /> <br /> <br /> lynn_patgolf ( 49) US $58.55 Aug-09-05 13:09:04 PDT <br /> <br /> <br /> wisard ( 316) US $38.50 Aug-09-05 12:21:11 PDT <br />

Posted By: <b>John</b><p>I logged on about twenty minutes before the auction was over to bid and was shocked to see the price. I also had the same thoughts, place your ceiling bids with five seconds to go or you leave yourself open for shill bids. I have a feeling that this one will be relisted.

Posted By: <b>Judge Dred (Fred)</b><p>I kind of did the same thing... I checked the auction with very little time remaining and was completely amazed at the bidding. I hope the seller gets that high bid because it looks as if the person wanted it pretty bad. I bet the seller is going to be surprised...

Posted By: <b>rob</b><p>The card's worth a bit more than $40, with the more scarce ad back, and Cravath shouldn't be regarded as a common, leading the league in HR 6 times counts for something. Overbidding happens often enough with a rarity, or something unusual showing up on Ebay.

Posted By: <b>dennis</b><p>i was hoping to bid about $25-$30 snipe for that cravath card.(since it does have paper loss on front). what never fails to amaze me is when a high bidder (whose latest wins include an andre kostelanetz lp and rube goldberg book..NO CARDS!)over pays 10x for what i think the card is worth. just does not make sense?

Posted By: <b>Tim Newcomb</b><p>Hi Rob,<br /><br />Well, I wouldn't have paid more than $40 for it <img src="/images/happy.gif" height=14 width=14><br /><br />If anyone's interested in nice VG semi-common players with Famous & Barr backs, I've got a bunch for only $300 apiece!!<br /><br /><img src="/images/wink.gif" height=14 width=14><br /><br />Tim

Posted By: <b>J Levine</b><p>I signed on with about 10 minutes to go thinking a $35-$40 bid might win this one...boy was I wrong (and disappointed)...I hope it relists.<br /><br />Joshua
