Thanks
 

Thanks Luke
My sentiments exactly

Why is it ok to put items on BST and EBay the same time or like some here do put 4 or 5 items on BST at the same time those things are ok I guess but me bumping my one item is such a big deal? I will not waste my time with you.

You've been wasting everyone else's time for over a year, and you haven't seemed to mind that one bit. Sure would be a shame if you wasted any of your own time though.

How do I waste your time you don't have to read it.

Robert, if it is at auction, then it belongs in the auction thread, not BST. It is in the current Heritage auction, so NO ONE can buy it from within this thread until the auction closes, correct??

It has about a week left

Hence the revival of the thread.

and...I am done with teeth for the day.

once we are past a certain age...all ugly faced woman with a great body are considered great looking girls

as to the card..i guess the card will finally sell if no unrealistic reserve.

Ttt
 

Ttt

Why?

As much as I've actually found the bickering back and forth a bit entertaining for a long time.

This has gone on long enough. It's no longer available to sell here, time to move on.

You don't have to look at the thread. And as far as it being available it is as available as the ones that these guys put on here and on eBay at the same time.

So...
 

At least we will find out how high the reserve is at 7 central tonight...
My guess is that it goes out of reach for most right about that time.

Publicity stunt or not. I almost feel as though people would not bid on this out of spite at this point.

Just stop. I don't have to look at it? It's on top of the b/s/t every two damn seconds. So, actually everyone including myself is being forced to look at this.

If I had all the money in the world I'd pay people to not bid on this.

Thanks for bumping it lol

Hi Robert,

Is that reverse black or brown? It looks black but is it actually brown??

Take care Charlie

Hi Charlie I think it's black that what it looks like with my eyes but they are 55 years old.

Robert,

Thanks for the reply.

BTW, your eyes are just fine! You can see the moon in the nightly sky, right? Well, it is in excess of 252,000 miles away.

Take care Charlie

And the reserve is $15,000, same as last time. And the soap opera that this card has become continues....

Please
 

Raise your hand if you are in any way surprised by this???
Hint: my hand is not raised :D:D

Robert,

I want to thank you for showing your Red Cobb Lenox. It really has been my first and only opportunity to view it in detail, and for that; to me, your card is priceless.

I sure wish I had the dough to buy it but I guess I must keep working a bunch of ot and just some day; I may have it or one like it.

Good Luck!

Take care Charlie

wierd he asked for 20k on b/s/t but only 15k with big auction....it usually goes the other way on net54....why not ask for 15k here..

Well Charlie if it doesn't go in this auction I think I will be putting it away because of all the ball breaking on this board. So maybe one day I will put it back up for sale and who knows if you are around and still want it you may just get it.

Cobb Lenox
 

News Flash!!! What will buy the card tonight?

will $30K buy the card?

link?

The PSA 3 Cobb/ Lenox in Memory Lane last night sold for $18,500. Last year a similar card sold for $27k.

It appears that with a $15k reserve, this card won't be sold anytime soon. :(

That was the same card as last year someone took a bath on that

Ok 8 more hours and it will be available here.

Leon, can you please pull this thread or move it somewhere? This last bump is unbelievable. An update that in 8 hours, this card will be available here again. Lol. Maybe he can pay for a banner ad if he wants to continue to use net54 as his own personal museum/blog?

If this thread hasn't broken the rules, then there just must not be any rules.

It really isn't fair to the people who follow the generally accepted BST etiquette.

I figured you would be the first one to complain but it's ok for everyone else to do whatever they want why don't you take a walk buddy. So other people can put things on BST and other auctions but that's ok? Oh and why don't you stop crying already.

Yikes...

Robert, it really isn't anything personal. I just enjoy using the BST to buy, sell and trade cards. I look at it pretty much every day because I enjoy it. I probably am an idiot for engaging you, but we all sat back and didn't say anything while you bumped this thread non-stop for like 6 months. I figured I would try and get you to see how rude it is to continually bump this thread above the other people who are actually trying to sell things. That hasn't worked obviously, but I gave it a shot.

Your thread is not a sale thread (it was for the first few months), yet it shows up a few times a week in the Buy/Sell/Trade section of this site. You put it in one of the largest auctions with too high of a reserve. If it can't sell there, you just aren't going to sell it at this time (and at this price). Lots of people on this site have expensive cards that they could put on the BST at twice what they are worth and bump them 3x a week for a year. But no one else ever does it.

You mention other people "doing whatever they want" on the BST. I'm not sure what you mean by that.

Please answer this question:

Can you name one instance in the last year where someone has mis-used the BST even half as bad as you have with this thread? You can leave out names and just explain the situation if you'd like. In my opinion, this thread is the worst example of poor BST etiquette that I've ever seen by far.

I realize it's just one thread, and that I should just ignore it. But, just because people "don't have to click on it" doesn't mean you should get to break the rules.

I see cards right now on the BST plus on eBay that's not right. I just want to sell my card like everyone else.

What's wrong with listing a card in multiple places? If someone buys it one place, the seller would end the other listings. It is a legitimate sales offer, and actually shows that the seller is motivated to sell.

Not to mention that you bumped this thread when your card was for sale at Heritage. So that's a little hypocritical.

Do you actually not see why people are frustrated by your thread? If you really don't then I'm sorry for being so direct. I was operating under the assumption that you know you are mis-using the BST and that you just didn't care.

This thread is a real cluster fu$k

I did not know that I was misusing the BST this is the very first time I ever sold a card I always am the buyer never the seller. I put it for sale here first then when it did not go I consigned it to Heritage they were the ones who said to put a 15k reserve on it not me. And after 7 more hours it will again be for sale here.

Alright, fair enough. I do wish you good luck selling it. I think people understand that the card is available, so hopefully you can keep the bumps to a minimum.

Luke
 

You beat me to it. Agreed 100%. And yeah, I am suuuuuure it will sell here.

If I could offer a suggestion that might be beneficial to everyone involved... if the card does not sell via Heritage, maybe Robert could simply start a new thread for the card, with an asking price in the first post, and then follow the simple rule of bumping it every other day or so. This way he gets a fresh start with a new thread, and each time he decides to bump it won't be this huge thread with all the views and negative replies.

Just a suggestion. This thread could be locked or not based on Leon's choice.

I think we all broke the rules.

That's a given. But nearly 500 posts about 1 card? Give this thread the ole heave ho.
I am totally fine with starting another one if the card is legitimately for sale with a specific price, but this needs to go away

You need to go away!

Too many members just want this debacle to go away. Start another thread if you want to sell it on the BST. And to everyone who emailed, pm'd and communicated otherwise, you are welcome.
