Outrageous in many ways. Honus inside. Some idiot actually paid big bucks for a pouch just like it. Did it come with the cellophane?

If you ask me alot of the BIN auctions for vintage cards could be put in this thread. I tend to filter them out nowadays. No offense to the sellers on here who may have some of these overpriced BIN's going, but some of these cards have been for sale forever it seems. I think alot of the inflated prices are being driven by the 3rd party graders. I can't wait until the National this summer. The economy could be heading for another real estate fiasco and I believe unemployment where I live will still be between 13%-17% depending on who you believe. I expect to be able to find bargains as long as I have plenty of cash on hand !
this BIN is just caught my eye due to the funny nature of the description. Get a laugh at this one while you can.

here you go... all over 100k and one item 17 million... woo hoo what a deal!

Wow...apparently this guy is hoping someone overlooks the fact that this is not the RARE variation. A $20 card going for $2000.

Here

the 10 million $ Mays was listed after i looked, good find.....ranks right up there with the 17 million Ali. The coffee colored Wagner on thick stock for 10$ wow....

[T206DK]

Damn I can't find the Honus Wagner card that was listed for $1,000,000 anymore. Ebay might have pulled that one. I think the theory that some of these sellers go by is like shooting a shotgun....you put enough crap on Ebay in BIN format at super inflated prices and if just 1 person buys a card you've made your money for the entire year !! what a life...

One of our very own. Its ME.

Actually not sure how outrageous considering it is pre pro ball for Mantle and trhe others but I am sure its absurd to some. Just want a good offer is all.

To be very frank, there are too many worthy entries for this category.

I'm a big fan of the $1.95 s/h charge on that one.

[Theoldprofessor]

Read the rest of the blurb and you'll see that the genuine Mays decal ($150 in PSA 9 .. $10,000,000 in PSA 10!) comes in a real PADDED ENVELOPE. That's surely where the rest of your money is going. And if anyone considers buying this, just put the cash in a padded room -- it's where the buyer must surely belong.

This isn't prewar, but it just got listed and seems like it belongs in this thread:

always funny when a brand new ebayer is aware of what SNAD means and puts it in their description. hmmm wonder where he learned it.

[J.McMurry]

Current book value for a PSA 9 is listed in the SMR at $150.00! What will a PSA 10 be worth?

Ha Ha, never woulda guessed TEN MILLION DOLLARS!

This is not on ebay any more but there was a guy with a Goose Gossage signed program for $35k, which is probably the most ridiculous I've ever seen. There was a thread about it :
