OT: Michael Jordan Mania

There is a lot of 13 of them for sale right now ffs.

Card is massively manipulated, multiple guys own multiple copies and it is ridiculously easy to control the price on this card.

I wonder, too, how many have been "helped" into that 10 holder. A card doctor favorite, I imagine.

LOL the subheading on the lot of 13 -- YOU CAN CONTROL THE MARKET!

The guy that hit the three is a known card doctor and had been buying 8s and 9s in volume. 100% chance those three had a haircut prior to submission.

I suspect it's the same one rumored to own several dozen of them.

Where are Vin Diesel, Scott Caan and Ben Affleck when you need them? This is almost a classic pump and dump. These days they don't need phone banks to find the rubes; they have so-meds (my word) which these suckers follow faithfully.

It is like looking at the alumni list of Clown College.

I still cant tell the difference between a 9 and a 10 and the cost between them is nothing but an elaborate marketing scheme to me.

I couldn't agree more, but now we are lucky enough to have the people taking a vig on the sale of the 10's telling us which 10's better than other 10's lol. The image of Arthur Fonzerelli on some water skis comes to mind.

Good Point

Go Fonzie go

I guess appealing to the vanity and ego of ultra rich people and playing them for a fool is a very lucrative way to make money. Probably not breaking news.

Who are you to doubt the integrity of a company that created a tool to bypass sales tax laws and looks the other way at shill bidding?

And Opines in conservation services? Likely providing them, or picking which cards go for them
