I messaged this guy and asked him where and when he bought the card and he wouldn't answer but said it doesn't matter. I advised people that pay 30k may want to know that info and he said he had the card for years.

A quick search on card target shows the exact card Cert number sell in 2013...

350896567133 1 Standard PSA 5 dacardworld-singles u***g $20,000.00 2013-10-11 09:56:54

the seller did show that he owned lots of psa sets .seems legit in a lot of ways...just weird..that he wouldn't address the past sale a year ago when he said he had the card for years....

legit?

Doesn't seem weird at all. Why would any seller want to tell you how much they paid for what they are selling ?

cmon..knowing the price wasn't the big issue..it was finding out the discrepancy of him saying he had the card for years yet there was sale last year..

knowing prices on big ticket items is pretty normal..after all we all know how much houses sell for...

and i wasn't interested in what he paid for it....dealers all the time tell me how much they paid for the card as a reason why they want more for the card..i want to pay what the card is worth no matter what the prior person paid for the card....
