T206 Ty Cobb Red background Lenox back

[Luke]

If nothing has changed in 2 months and we're all stupid, can you please put this card on ebay for $20,000 and stop bumping this thread?

This thread is really picking up, 4+ pages in 2 days. Still no bids for the card though. What happened to sending it off to auction like you mentioned back in late March?

Wow Josh. That is simply an insulting bid. I will gladly offer $25 and offer apologies to the Op for your low bid. Maybe this should be moved to the auction section?

I will agree my last post was a bit childish, but I think the consensus is that we are all sick of this thread. I think it is time for it to go away. Just consign the card and then let everyone know where you consigned it. You have created plenty of publicity for it and then let it ride on auction. Just my 2 cents worth, but the longer this thread stays here, the more childish the comments will get. That is a relative certainty

If I recall correctly I offered you $18,000 for this card within 3 days of your order being graded. I also made strong offers on the other items in the order (which I won't disclose because you haven't made them public ).

I deeply regret that offer after reading this thread.

Hindsight is 20/20 right?

always amazes me as buyers seem to think the first offer can never be the best offer....i have plenty of offers on cards listed on ebay that get marked down to what i offered for them months earlier

plus if the seller cant get more than i offered and come back to me i no longer what the card at that price knowing my offer scared away all the buyers as the seller was using my offer against other buyers.....its lose lose...

Robert, unless you are finding all the stupid comments entertaining, perhaps you should just start a new thread and hope people won't pile on this time.

Once we got to a point around 200 posts ago, the general rules for a BST transaction were mostly out the window. This isn't a dictatorship, contrary to what a few might think, or a loosely run board (imo), and the rules are always guidelines which should usually be followed. I am fairly sure most members don't want a stale place? And I have had more than a couple PMs and emails asking me to lock this thread. My question is why? It is 1 thread on a page of 35. If you don't like it, skip it. If it gets way out of control, in my opinion, then maybe something else will be done. I/we never like to lock threads. That's my half cent....I bid $10k !!

This is a great suggestion. List the card, price, and perhaps ask those who aren't interested not to comment.

And if this is an auction now, I'll bid 11k
