Whether you believe it or not, it is happening. Try finding one at a reasonable price,

Good luck.

This is crazy, if legit. One could hoard a T206 by just bidding 150% of the value and shutting up. I’ve hoarded cards I especially like before without any impact on market prices, because I shut up and didn’t do this. Supply and demand is irrelevant to pricing; its perception of supply and demand that impacts. If you just shut up you’ll get most of them without much of a premium.

More likely it’s probably some troll not paying for these.

Anyone want to pay only $1K for my T205 Evans? Call me

A raw card sold as recently as November 12 for $190.

Looks like this is a very new enterprise.

Oh no, not another Titus card...

Should be interesting. If the card is a basic common then someone's really going to have to eat a lot of these over a long duration of time to really change the market pricing. Right? I know someone that had a LARGE quantity of a certain player yet couldn't dent the overall market because there were just too many of them out there. If you had a lot of resources, you could buy everyone that came on ebay, but after a while, wouldn't you just have a large quantity of a common player?

I'm wondering if it's someone in search of a new variation.

If you look at different examples of the card, you'll notice subtle differences in the placement of the St. Louis in red on his uniform. The red shifts from left - right; this is noticeable where the red intersects with the bat and Evans' left hand, as well as where the first S is in relation to the crease between the S and the t; also where the second S is in relation to the crease after it. This is simply a color shift when the red was printed, as it will also be noticed with the red on his cap and sleeves.

I suppose if you found two cards, one with the red shifted extreme-left, and another with it shifted extreme-right, it might be worthy of note; otherwise, I would consider it simply a printing anomaly; no different than other cards with noticeable color shifts.

Steve

I saw those listings and thought the seller was drunk or high.

Put it up for Buy It Now. It doesn't seem like any of the sales were bidding wars. Looks like all Buy It Now.

I just looked at completed sales. The sellers are the usual T206 sellers asking $2000 and getting it. I guess I need to check my T206 box for Evans. Do you think they need the T213-2 back?

This is why "past sales" don't really mean anything, unless that buyer is there buying.

Evans is roughly at the median in terms of scarcity.

About as vanilla as it gets.

We had meme stocks like GameStop maybe we now have meme cards.
