Yeah its all in fun. Its one thing to respond to buy something on craigslist to someone to buy a lawnmower and not show up and the seller doesnt even know your name etc and another to bid in a Heritage Auction for a 30k card and not pay...there is definite risk of a lawsuit for damages against you in the auction situation as its deemed you 'purchased' the card.

I not sure if anyone on Net54 has any story about being the high bidder on a card over 10k and then not paying at an auction house like Heritage as I would be interested to see how it was handled..

? Really? WTF
Yeah, let me tell you about all the times I bid on items over $10K and how each major auction house banned me.

Are you really serious?

Well there could of been an error in the listing or like that Dimaggio rookie card where it was found a psa 7 was earlier an SGC4 and not disclosed and the buyer didnt pay.

The fact that people are scared to bid a ton and 'win' the card and not pay shows there is fear of winning a card and that a 'sold' price means something. Plus you say banned, but they may of been sued due the fact that the card did sell for X amount. (though there may be a good defense from the buyer)

I would think there are some lawsuits out there as well that have long been resolved that someone may of discussed some of the issues with.

It was a shot in the dark but its not unreasonable that someone could contribute something without looking remotely bad.

You gave one example that wouldnt' make sense for a buyer to share, but there are many other examples that perhaps a buyer would.

psa 1 just sold last night north of $14k - that has to be a record for a PSA 1 right?

Card was NICE in my opinion .

Minus the tape, the PSA 1 that closed last evening was a sharp card.....likely close to, if not a record for a PSA 1. A 1.5 sold for $14.8 K in November. More surprising is the SGC 50 that sold for $17.6.....while not centered, it was crease/wrinkle free.

That's higher, but more in line where prices were before the huge "run up". Once/if see 3s back around the 10k number, I feel more people will jump in the water.
