Regardless. IT is already at $420K (with BP) and it still has a long day to go. So it should easily exceed the $510K #.

I have no opinion on whether it was a legitimate sale. The card is not that scarce--at least 7 sales in the past two years with just that TSN ad back.
I have no issue with people flipping cards. I just look askance at someone claiming they are a diehard collector who has always wanted a Ruth rookie when they probably should be saying they are an investor who always wanted something that would turn a quick profit. The word poser comes to mind. But hey, so be it-- a small issue in the overall scheme of things.
