Goudey Album on eBay

Thought I'd save some others the time. I emailed the seller what the reserve was and this was the reply:

"reserve is 65,000 for the 380 cards, 30 photos, and 6 signatures. The owner
is listening to offers Above 50,000. Most of the 1934 goudey as well as
about 30 percent of the 1933 Goudey are really nice cards that would grade
6 to 8 if removed from the paper cleanly. 2 of the Ruths are really nice, 2
are midgrade and 1 is probably a 3 or 4. The 1934 Goudey Gehrig is a
beauty."

I might have missed something but a quick glance showed me no cards that would be an 8 if, and that is a big IF, there were no back damage in removing them.

At first I also thought my eyes were going, then I concluded that my sense of what a PSA 6/7 Goudey common is worth must be way off, so now I am taking some ibuprofin and hope to sleep it off.

First thing in the first post.

He included a link. It's at the very top of the message area, directly above the paragraph he wrote.

Anyone know what those big cut outs are? There's one of Ruth and another of a pitcher, maybe Hubbel?

In the spirit of unrealistic pricing, this newly listed gem just shot past the Goudeys (see link).

where do these Buy-It-Now prices come from ? Wheel of fortune ?

Is this guy a member of Net 54? Based on his pricing he'd fit right in here! Let me guess -- he bought it for 30K and now thinks it's worth 65K?

More like: "Let me guess -- he bought it for 30K a month ago and now thinks it's worth 65K?"

If he bought it for $30K, he overpaid by about three times the true value.

But worst of all, after you pay $50k-$65K to own this piece, you have to GO TO SYRACUSE TO PICK IT UP!

Talk about adding insult to injury.

He sold 300 items in 7 years and he's a Powerseller?
