Anonymous Yes, I mean insertion and final value fees. I apologize for the confusion.
I don't mean to get off subject. This is about a trimmed Weaver going for an obscene price. If I put up a card that goes for that price, eBay gets over ten dollars. Am I whining. YES.
Most times cards don't go for a large percentage markup. Do large card markups happen? Yes. Otherwise people wouldn't post lots on eBay. Is the percentage more often than not that the person selling the card only makes a few dollars which is cut into by eBay? Yes. The trick with eBay is the same trick as a power hitter in baseball. You try to hit a homerun, but there are a fair amount of strikeouts.
As for the card I have, I will hold off on posting a scan here because then that may be seen as soliciting offers. This is not the proper place on this site for that matter.
Congratulations to the seller. As for the buyer....
