if you put a price it may be easier to sell the card but up to you

I have taken this card to several card shows and showed it to a dozen or so people and auction houses and they estimated it at 25-35k. Rob

Rob, if they think the card is worth 25-35K, have any of them offered to buy it from you for that amount?

[Republicaninmass]

I think he missed a decimal

[Bigb13]

I posted that I was listening to offers if someone offers something I can live with than ok but everyone wants a price.

I find that with expensive cards, people don't usually like to bid against themselves and need a price.

[Rob D.]

Any interest in trading for drastic miscuts?

[Bigb13]

Think I will go the auction way

I had submitted a private offer well within the reasonable range for this card before it was posted publicly and was spammed 50 times. Told him I wouldn't be interested if it was posted publicly.

I believe he killed his own market by spamming pictures of it everywhere.

In March a "dozen or so people and auction houses" estimated the card to be worth 25-35K. Today "people tell [you] it should go around 18K ...." You do understand that these people are full of shit, right? Because those "dozen or so people and auction houses" who think the card is worth 25-35K would actually have bought the card for the 18K you'd sell it for now in a heartbeat if they really believed their estimate.

It was memory lane Goodwin and one or two others that said that.

auction houses overpricing the expected realized value at auction to get the consignment isnt anything new.....

[ullmandds]

without rereading this thread I presume this is STIll regarding a t296 cobb lenox back?

If so...this card should have been consigned from the start...and had it been you'd have had the cash proceeds in your pocket eons ago.

Hi Robert,

Is that reverse black or brown? It looks black but is it actually brown??

Take care Charlie

[Bigb13]

Hi Charlie I think it's black that what it looks like with my eyes but they are 55 years old.

[Charlie Faust III]

Robert,

Thanks for the reply.

BTW, your eyes are just fine! You can see the moon in the nightly sky, right? Well, it is in excess of 252,000 miles away.

Take care Charlie
