Posted By: <b>leon</b><p>Even though it could benefit me if it goes sky high I think it's already at least 2x-3x over what it should be. My opinion is it's about a 20k-25k card....give or take. Heck, with the current price that would make mine be worth quite a bit.<br> I will never forget placing my max bid on mine, with Mastro, and getting up in the morning to find out I had actually won it. I was very happy. IT must have been about 8-9 yrs ago...best regards

Posted By: <b>Dan Bretta</b><p>This is NOT the same card that the lady in California found. This is one that has been trimmed down and was on ebay just a few days ago with a $28,000 BIN.

Posted By: <b>PC</b><p>That is NOT the same card that was recently discovered. Note the tricky wording in the auction: &quot;This is the same card referenced by Yahoo&quot; (which means this is the same kind of card, not the exact same card).<br><br>Here's the recent find:<br><img src="http://i50.photobucket.com/albums/f327/patlizmeg/44384002.jpg" alt="[linked image]">

Posted By: <b>CoreyRSh.anus</b><p>As I write this post, the card presently is at $67,600 with 59 bids. IMO, an UNTRIMMED one (this one is trimmed) in generally vg-ex condition (as a practical matter as good as it gets for an item like this) in normal economic times would have a FMV of around $50K. So now in these crummy economic times a trimmed one is purportedly at a price 1/3rd higher than that. Is this &quot;auction&quot; meant to be taken seriously?<br><br>

Posted By: <b>Scott Sarian</b><p>Most serious bidders would be placing snipes on such an item, and not bidding heavily in the first 12 hours of a 10-day listing. So my guess is these are not serious bids...

Posted By: <b>rand</b><p>how did this guy get the card? is it a consignment? i know in the large auctions you never know you your are bidding against... i really squirm on ebay with it.

Posted By: <b>Fred Y</b><p>It is not the lady's card---it is a different one as stated above. Her card will be sold later and is not trimmed. His referencing of Yahoo is misleading--trying to capitalize on her publicity.

Posted By: <b>leon</b><p>The seller says: <br><br>&quot;YES! We will consider monthly payments with $50,000 down within 7 days. 5K or more monthly thereafter. This rare collectible however will remain in the vault until full payment is made.&quot;<br><br><br><br>Well, folks will bid what they want to but the current market, in good times, is about 15k-25k...according to the few last sales I remember, of trimmed ones ...Should be interesting to see how/where it ends....<br><br>

Posted By: <b>Adam</b><p>In all the deals I have done with Board members on the B/S/T, I have never been asked to deliver a card in person. Should I ever get that request, however, I note that like this particular eBay seller, I also may &quot;come with [an] armed police escort.&quot;

Posted By: <b>Jeff Lichtman</b><p>From the power-washed scans designed to hide imperfections to the ridiculous langauge in this seller's listing...and now a private auction to boot (with no reserve -- yeah right). This one just screams fraud. By the way, I'm curious which members of a police force are providing armed protection for this jackass?

Is this the new discovered one??
 

Posted By: <b>Dan Bretta</b><p>I don't think it's fraudulent....I think the guy actually has the card. He did have it up on ebay with a BIN well before the lady found hers and made big news. This guy is just trying to capitalize on her good fortune. He's a slimy seller...that much is for sure.

Is this the new discovered one??
 

Posted By: <b>Jeff Lichtman</b><p>Dan, I agree. I think the card is legit -- I just think that this seller is so over the top full of it, his scans universally misleading...that it is not possible to believe that he is letting this card go without pumping up the price -- and the fact he is using a private auction supports that theory.

Posted By: <b>Dan Bretta</b><p>Ah...I misunderstood. I believe the auction may be fraudulent as well.

Posted By: <b>Jeff Lichtman</b><p>&quot;YES! WE WILL MAKE IT A PRIVATE BIDDER AUCTION FOR YOUR SECURITY.&quot;<br><br>A fraudster always has an incomprehensible reason as to why their auctions need to be private. So, I suppose when ebay made it virtually impossible to identify the winner of an auction that wasn't enough? And what kind of security is needed for the winner of the auction? This idiotic explanation is almost as good as my favorite: &quot;all of our auction are private because when we set up the auctions they had all previously been set as private and we forgot to change it.&quot; I think that was London Ventures' false excuse....
