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

[Dpeck100]

Bobby saw the win confirmed on CU and decided to start a thread asking if anyone had a PSA 9 George Brett stolen.

I have only posted a few times on this forum but have been on CU for quite awhile and this is just par for the course.

I see. Well apparently there are very good deals available on ebay once in a while despite my earlier post to the contrary. Someone certainly did hit a homerun with this one.

If it really was just an honest mistake by the seller in regards to the price it sure was an expensive one and I'm sure he or she will do a little more research next time.

I really don't have an issue with this thread being posted. If the card wasn't stolen, what's the big deal? If it was, then it's good news to the original owner. Isn't there still some Willie Mays card that got stolen from Rob Schneider?

Dpeck is right. There are several meddling people on CU who can't stand it if somebody gets a great deal. Bobby has a penchant for stirring up drama, which is why he was perma-banned over there.

When I see a card sell at far below market value, my first thought is that the seller was uninformed and the buyer had fortuitous timing. I don't take to an Internet message board to say the buyer is in receipt of stolen goods, and I certainly don't dredge up this stuff 4 weeks after the sale.

DPeck IS NOT right....you can't tell me that someone owns a card of that magnitude and has NO CLUE what it is worth!!! The majority of his cards are Pokemon cards for crying out loud!! I am sorry, but if it smells like a fish.....

I think it's possible that the card is stolen. Pokemon cards...maybe it's a kid who stole some of dad's baseball cards? Maybe housekeepers pocketed it while doing the laundry. Who knows? It doesn't hurt to inform the public in case it's a hot item. No need to pile onto the OP for this.

Not cards, but I've bought stamps on Ebay that were BINs from dealers AND that were even more lopsided deals than this was.

So yes, some people just either don't know what they have or don't keep track of all the prices.

All of the auctions I posted were from the sellers feedback and they were priced more in line with current prices and buyers left positive feedback.

My experience has been when someone posts a win on CU others will quickly email the seller to either get them to sell them the card for more or to tamper with the buyers win and get the seller to relist it at a higher price.

It is probable that if this happened they looked at completed listings and priced their cards more in line with the current market.

There are many collectors who own cards and do not care to establish an EBAY account and get others to sell their cards for them. That could have easily occurred here.

David...I feel like a broken record with you. If someone stole some cards from ME, I would want the same consideration. I'm sorry if you think it is, but selling a $2,000 card for $500 is NOT normal! When I hear of that going on, my mind automatically thinks fake or stolen.

And yes...Rob Schneider has a Willie Mays rookie stolen. Probably sold on the black market for $200.
