Default Disturbing.......

I just got an email from an auction house telling me what the high bidder's ceiling bid is and if i take the next bid, Im the high bidder. Has anyone ever heard of this? Auction is ending tonight!

It was NOT SportscardLink and they told me if I went one more bid, I would get the card.

In my opinion...

You shouldn't even start a thread like this without going all in with the information.

And, the title should be "Disturbing..." not "Interesting..."

Steve,

I think you are fine. I have never had any problems with SportsCard Link Auctions. They are referring to another auction house...coincidentally the two auctions ended at the same time.

Yeah, quick FYI, "game worn jersey" may simply mean that Steve Jensen wore that jersey to a game.

Sportscardlink is not the auction house in question. Sportscardlink is run by Chris Porter whom I have known for years and believe he runs an honest business. I have only had the best dealings with Chris.
