"L@@K" and "Read Below" actually make people do those things instead of immediately abandon the auction.

Someone cracking and resubmitting a graded card doesn't affect the population report.

I've seen some say versions of this: That players' card prices are proportional to the skill of the player, so if the numbers say player A (maybe Henry Aaron) was as good or better than player B (Mantle?), then if his cards aren't the same price, they are "undervalued."

1.) It's possible to buy cards that you want when you want to and keep a healthy marriage.



2.) Kevin Maas is the next big star.



3.) Players' Autographs - even purchased in-person, are worth just as much if NOBODY can read the name.

The utilization of ‘at signs’ to imitate eyes and form the word “L@@K” in an auction title.

Having a card listed at a ridiculously exorbitant, usurious eBay price and thinking that offering a 5% OFF 'discount' (yes, that's air quotes) to watchers will lead to a sale.

The dog ate my baseball cards!
And I would add Cal Ripkin, as well as Feller and O'Neil, to the happy signers club.

If you see a Cal Ripkin autographed baseball, it is a forgery!
