Thanks Al... the only thing I can think of is some guy with serious cash was looking to complete a redhindu subset... and didn't care about literally pissing away $40K between the 2 cards.. the bidder logged in again at 3am and started again bidding on the Seymour and the murphy....
if both of those cards sold together they would go for around $3K.. they just sold for a combined $43K!.. wish I didn't care about losing $40,000 on a purchase... maybe it was the new powerball $500million winner out of long Island NY.

Auction houses love guys like that. Collectors, not so much.

Chris,
I haven't gotten a invoice yet but in my account summary for SCP it shows my winnings. As far as the dollars go, if the winners are collectors I'm sure their motivation is that, collecting. If they spend 2K or 20K its there money and they don't think there wasting money...there buying what they want for there collection...i'd be doing it too if I had the money. The fact is for me, I don't. I held firm on my limits and moved around the auction to see what I could afford. I hate walking away from a back run card I need but there is always more cardboard out there. Whether it shows up in my lifetime and when I have the cash is the question. |
