Default 1910 T206 Ty Cobb Red PSA 5? HELP!!

Posted By: JP

Craig,

I used to use T-206.com frequently but did not do so when I just recently won a PSA 5 Red Cobb myself....I'm the $1688 winner. That list you just put up peaked my interest and I've just come to find out that the card I won was the lowest selling PSA 5...ever? There were 100 or so past eBay auction results on T-206 stretching back to the beginng of 2006, and vintagecardprices.com had the last two years of eBay and major auction house results. All of those results were higher than $1688. Which begs the question, why such a bargain? The flip on the Cobb I bought says Piedmont while the back is obviously Sweet Caporal. Why exactly does that give a $200-400 discount, when it only takes a few bucks to get PSA to correct the mitake? It sure had nothing to do with the seller, ROOMN* is just about one of the best eBay sellers around...
