Am I missing something?

It seems like T205 Raymonds are bringing some very strong prices:

I'm with you. I know that it is a kind of tough card but really?!?!?

Not sure, but every time I see a higher than normal "bid" on eBay I remember how much shilling goes on there and it gives me pause for thought.

I haven't been following that card since I don't need it, but looking at those final bids leaves me scratching my head. Those prices are insane. It looks like the underbidder on one was the winner on the other.

Glad I got mine when I did.

The card that ended last night for $330 was my card. I can tell you there was not shilling on my auction.

I saw the first one end for $700 and decided to sell my duplicate to try and get some of the underbidders.

They don't come up on eBay that often. I'm pleased with the closing price.

My apology Michael C, was not intending to suggest you personally are involved in this activity but was simply making a general comment....

I have been looking for T205 SPs and HOFs, so I was following both auctions and thought Id be strong at 100% of the value based on T205.org valuation & 2011 SCD Standard Catalog (which are pretty far apart). But of course they both auctions went way north. Ive seen other strong sells in SPs & variations the last few weeks also.

Made me wounder if I'm using the wrong resources to base my bids on.
