Default T206 Lindaman
I'm pretty sure the previously unconfirmed Sweet Caporal 350 Factory 30 back was the reason why it went for so much. However, if that was the reason, the buyer is NOT going to be happy when they get the card. I know that the seller included the wrong back scan in the listing - the back is actually a Sweet Caporal 150. The seller provided me with this information a couple of days ago when I asked for confirmation of the 350 series back.

Hopefully they can get a refund.

Even if it was the only known example from a factory, people are really willing to pay that much money for it? That seems crazy.

I think the answer is, yes, they are willing to pay that much for it. Crazy?....maybe, maybe not.

If that card was legit and you put it up for auction in one of the big auction
houses you could make a big profit off it at that price.

It can. I think there might be at least one well heeled collector (David Hall?) trying for a T206 super duper master set with every front back combination. Sort of a kin to someone doing a complete master type-card set. That would be craziness.

I would love to see the looks on people faces when you say, but check out the factory number on this Lindaman Sweet Cap. Pretttty cool, eh?

My first thoughts would be who's Vive Lindaman and whats a factory 30?
