I am barely anywhere.....trust me. I see things in the wrong places sometimes and move them, that's all. I have to earn my keep somehow.

Leon.....love ya !

So what's the thought on this one? That two guys are trying to manipulate the market for t206 Bakers? Or high grade t206s in general? I'm having trouble thinking of a legitimate reason to bid this card up to even 3k, let alone 6k.

[Brent Huigens]

Just wanted to quickly touch base on this thread.

This was absolutely one of the stranger results last night. The high bidder placed a virtually infinite high bid to ensure victory and then saw the bid run up to the staggering closing price, which is multiples above what was expected for the card.

The bid history looks very concerning with the under bidder driving the price incrementally as they did. Upon first glance it looks like a clear cut case of manipulation but then as the auction progressed the under bidder in question managed to win additional items using a similar bidding practice. These items have all been paid for as of this morning.

Even still,, we may cancel the auction and relist if the high bidder is uncomfortable with the circumstances.

He does not.

[asphaltman]

Ebay hiding identities years ago made all of this worse.

[Peter_Spaeth]

Same exact card sold a year ago, for 806. Good return on investment.

[Bored5000]

Obviously nothing sketchy at all about the 18 bid retractions in the past six months and 86 percent bid activity with PWCC by the winning bidder.

[pkaufman]

Amen !
