Hal LewisI agree Jay...
but I have to admit that there are probably tens of thousands of people across the World who will run across this auction and see that the reserve was not met...
and just assume that the card is therefore worth MORE than $172,000.
In other words...
this was a GREAT ADVERTISING MOVE for the owner of the card.

We should put ALL of our cards up on EBay for PRIVATE AUCTIONS with $1,000,000 reserves...
and then shill them up to $950,000!!!
Maybe some foreign investor will then feel like he is getting a deal when he buys them all for $750,000 each!!!
