Lots of Mantles!

If you haven't seen this auction, take a look---it's hysterical!

I couldn't resist sending a "Question to Seller"--and he took me seriously & posted it along w/ his answer at the bottom of his listing. (2nd from bottom)

Don't believe I've ever seen a listing quite like this one!

He has no pics--he doesn't have the cards--and it doesn't look like Granny will even ship---BUT, for ONLY 25 G I don't think I can pass it up!! LOL!!

Fred, I wrote him too earlier today, he must of got a little skittish as I see he now ended the $25K auction early. Hope it wasnt something we said

First it was $5K then $25K, now has a $100 auction. Hope Grandma follows through

Thanks for the link up-date Frank.

I wonder how he knows he now has 25 Mantles to sell---He previously said they sold 20!!

Somehow, I don't trust Granny!!! LOL!!

Fred, the link problem was when you went back and edited your post. Each time a post is edited the link will get messed up. The link needs to be redone each time the post is edited. Ive done it a few times myself.

The sad thing is there are people out there who will buy into stories like these.

I won't consider trying for this lot unless it has my favorite--1960 Topps Bobby Malkmus!

I like the fully autographed ball which may or may not contain Mickey Mantle.

The saddest thing is that he isn't willing to put in any effort to make an additional $24,900 for his granny. Although I shouldn't judge him too harshly as apparently she won't put in any effort either- she's only willing to take a picture for insurance purposes (that line from his second answer might be my favorite of all)

This is why Ebay flourishes
Morons like this list BS items & Ebay collects listing fees on items that don't have a Prayer of selling
Why don't these clowns just send ebay money & spare us from these fraudulent listings
they are funny to read
But on the other hand these auctions are bogus
I wish law enforcement would go after these idiots as way too many people get ripped of on ebay daily & they could care less
all ebay cares about is $$$$$$$$$$$$$$
