Often follow ebay items during the course of a week sometimes bidding and occasionally winning. Usually dropping out basically due to funds. The last item I really kicked myself for not bidding stronger on was a while back and discussed here on the board. Guy posted a stand alone D and M Sporting Goods Joe Jackson advertizing cardboard standup. I think it was about 12-14 inches tall and in fairly rough shape but still I`d never seen one and the description was so/so. It reminded me of those repo Gehrig Glove cardboard ads that people find all the time. Anyway watched it close at 550.00 or so and just couldn`t pull the trigger. Few days later was happy to see a fellow 54`er took a chance, won it, and had some restoration done and it was beautiful. Being a Joe Jax/Black Sox fan it`s an item I`ll always remember.
