Default I wonder if I can trade my 87 topps case for this t200 case

Whenever I see this guy's auctions on eBay, I do a couple of things:

1) Read through the large font listing and LAUGH

2) Find his pre-auction estimate and subtract two zero's.



Listings by this guy (and many others) doesn't pass the smell test.

Why, if the piece is so valuable, does he list it on eBay and for such a small opening bid? Why not send it to a major aucion house?

If he believes there are cards in the packs, why not open them up? IF they have been sealed for this many years, there might be tobacco stains (at worst) on them but everything else should be in really nice condition. If that were so, then it would be REAL easy to get the cards graded and sell them individually.

People who bid on this guys auctions DO NOT use their common sense. If what he has is SOOOO valuable, then why is he willing to let it go at such a low price?? I guess he is so rich that he can just give money away to the less fortunate....
