I still want to know what was happening in the world that week because I couldn't do it again if I tried!

Maybe everyone on this board was on vacation that week and not checking ebay?

Back in 2004 there was a raw Merkle Uzit on ebay selling for $1,000. I put in the minimal raise of $25. No one raised, and I couldn't believe I got it that cheap. It ended up grading a PSA 4.5.
