1933 Goudey Ruth $1 million dollars
 
He can ask what he wants and I can offer what I want :) Pretty good marketing though!!

I especially like the dull/faded/blurry scans he's comparing to the overly bright scan of the Ruth!

It definitely is a very attractive card...

Leon, what did you bid? For fun, Maybe we can all make lower (relative term) offers and have him reject them.... Kinda like everyone choosing to watch that roger Hornsby ticket stub a few weeks back

My bad, I tead the $1,000 as $1mm, after clicking on the link. Ok, I will offer this dude $1,100!

PWCC didn't label it as High End when it sold 2 months or so ago.

rats60 11-01-2017 11:39 AM

He paid 12.6k, so you guys should try offering 8k and see if he wants to lose money. Buying a card off of PWCC and instantly trying to flip it doesn't seem like a good business model.

Wonder if he'll throw in the Weezer T-shirt...

I'd be afraid to offer less than 85%, given the abuse and banning that occurs by making a "low ball" offer.

I actually offered 2k before scrolling down to read this post. Also turned down. I looked through his other listings. Not sure which price is more out of line. The million dollar Ruth, or the 50 dollar kit Kat bar.

But Leon, you have to check the other 4 graded ones he shows, it's undergraded per seller :D:D:D

I agree, and yet so many dudes seem to have this business model.

That is funny. I think I have flushed good, hard earned cash a few times. Hey, the seller says it's under graded so it could be a bargain.

insidethewrapper 11-06-2017 10:14 AM

If it's undergraded it would be easy to break out of the slab and have it regraded.

Why not pay the $ 1million. It does come with Free Shipping and you can earn $ 100 in ebay bucks.

In light of that million-dollar listing, I will go to half a million on this one below. I wanna save fees so cash via FedEx only, please.

When one comes around with better centering 1/2 million might be doable. BTW, the original seller is offering free shipping so you will need to match that too. :eek:
