Has anyone had a 1975 George Brett rookie PSA 9 STOLEN from them??

[HOF Auto Rookies]

Ooooooooh totally makes sense. Thank you for the clarification, I hope no one had theirs stolen. :/

So there isn't such a thing as a good deal on EBAY?

Perhaps a seller isn't up with current market prices. Did that ever cross your mind before you started a thread about it?

Have you checked the flip and made sure it isn't bleached?

No offense, but when a seller of Pokémon cards suddenly has a high dollar baseball card, and puts it up for 25% of its real value, then what is the most logical train of thought....fake or stolen. No offense, but if the card is indeed stolen, I think the rightful owner would like to know!! I know I would want the same consideration if I had cards stolen from me! If the card is "truly" a steal and put up by a seller who had no idea of the cards value, then I apologize. However, if you have the funds and gumption to own a George Brett rookie PSA 9, I have a hard time believing that you DO NOT know the value of that card!

Thread on CU about this.

The same seller got $1,900 for their Johnny Bench PSA 9.

$100 less then 4SC.

Why wouldn't they have sold this one at 25% of recent sales?

PWCC got $25 more 11 days prior.

I'm not analyzing every single card Mr. Pokémon has sold. I am speaking for the Brett rookie. I'm just trying to bring this to light in case someone had their collection stolen. I would hope someone would do the same for me if I had some cards stolen.

well tough to steal a brett card... psa 8 worth a loot less so it would be silly to take it out of the holder to get a new cert number unlike a mantle which can have good value even if graded lower......and if can prove a prior purchase with the cert number he could challenge the current card ...

Not that good. If it looks too good to be true...

Thank you Jesse!! Someone sees it like I do. I once found a Schon pool cue in a Pawn Shop for $150. I couldn't pull the money out of my pocket fast enough. Long story short, I was constantly looking over my shoulder when I shot with it. Sure enough, some man cornered me in a bar thinking I stole his cue from him. I got lucky to get the $150 I paid for it back, but felt bad that he had to buy back his own cue. If a seller truly owns a card of that caliber, he doesn't sell it for pennies on the dollar. When he has nothing it in, then whatever he gets is good. Anyway, I'm just doing my part in case this card belongs to someone else. Nothing gets my blood boiling like a thief.

So he paid you for his own cue stick? That would be an odd move from a guy that seconds before was about to pound you.

I didn't steal it...I bought it at a Pawn shop. I had no proof that it was his, and he had no proof that I stole it. We took each others word as to what the truth was and worked it out between us.

[bobbyw8469]

What if the Brett turns out to be stolen and the rightful owner wants it back? Should the person who bought it on Ebay be out his $500?

I have no idea what that pool cue is worth, but seems odd that you would just take some dude's word for it that it was his. You rightfully bought it.
