I will be the first to say that’s total insanity and someone is going regret this big time.
Of course I would have said the same thing when the seller originally bought the card for a million, so what do I know.

When it goes for 5 million we will be saying how crazy it is.

The vast majority of all message board participants thought Vegas Dave was nuts to pay 400k.

Just a sign to me of how far the card market has come and how much big money is moving in.

Very cool.

Well, it had been sitting as a BIN on eBay for months at that time, right?

Do these guys really think it's an investment at this point, or a schlong measuring contest?

I don't recall but I can't say I would have thought it would do this.

Cards are becoming modern day art and this has now become a status symbol and when that happens there is no telling how high it will go.

Babe Ruth stuff going under 20k. And Trout 3 million. Makes sense in some alternate universe I’m sure.

Art market prices literally dwarf even the highest card “sales.”
