The card "ended" at $4699.99 -- and today it miraculously appears back on ebay with a BIN of -- you guessed it -- $4699.99: http://www.ebay.com/itm/1911-T3-Turk...item3cd90ae679

It looks like maybe someone is trying to artificially inflate the "value" of the card so that when someone says his price is too high, he can "justify" it by referencing last night's listing as precedent. There's some 1980's hockey wax boxes that the same thing is happening and this buffoonish seller got an attitude with me because I told him about it and that his prices weren't reasonable. I was respectful, but it seems like much of the time when you are polite with a card seller and it's not a happy truth for them, their piggish nasty greed attitude comes out and they give you a real obnoxious response. They seem to mistake their cardboard for gold due to these shills and price it based on gold prices. It's similar to someone with a 1980's baseball collection and they get angry with you when you break it to them their 1988 Topps set is not worth $100,000.00 and not rare.
