Default Biggest steal you ever saw on ebay?

Posted By: Rhys

In 2000 I missed out on a Cameo Pepsin Gum Pin of Bid McPhee, final Price $325, also a Cameo Pepsin of Cap Anson for $900.

In 2000 I also was the underbidder on a G&B Buffington at $800.

In 2003 I bought an SF Hess David Orr for $600 with an 1887 American Association guide (It is the one Terry Knouse now has for sale graded by GAI at a 3.5 for about $4500).

I bought an uncatalogued set of 1910 Southern League player Cabinet style cards for $400 for nine cards and sold them for about $2500 the next day.

I bought a single signed Bill Klem baseball about 3 months ago for $37. If you dont know his isgnature it looks like Mr. Miagi wrote on the ball, but Mastronet sold it authenticated so it was real.

There are so many items from the good old days of ebay that can be told but those are few I remember well, probably because most are the ones that got away.
