Eddie Plank ☆ Ebay

[mechanicalman]

Some awesome items in that auction, for sure. I'm sure I will bid on and lose many auctions. One question: is it me, or is the "Certified High End" designation being used a bit liberally?

heck yeah..and I wonder why they do certified high end on grades with a half grade.....there usually POP 3 or less in half grades....so high end for the grade..means best out of 3 cards? haha

Well, I've already been left in the dust (I was the fifth bidder on it)

The only other ebay Plank I can remember was in 2003/04 timeframe. I think the seller was someone like "Big Ed's" or something in Pennsylvania. It was either a PSA 1 or 2 that went for $16,300, with my bid at $16,200

T206resource.com has either 4 or 5 Planks listed as selling on ebay over the years.

Heck, anyone see the '52 Topps Mantle PSA 8?

Yea, it's been advertised ahead-of-time, but still.....

less than 1/2 hour in, and it's over $300K!!!!!

Auctions go two ways usually...80% of the sale price bid beginning of auction..or 80% bid toward end of auction.. (maybe not that exact percentage but you see what I am getting at)

never understood why sellers get excited about early action that's still below market price...if its above market price early on...that's a whole different scenario...but if the bidding is still under market...makes no difference to me if early action or late action..
