Bidders obviously caught that too.

.....and yes some of those Ticket prices were outrageous, obviously won by someone new to the hobby. For a couple of those they could get a better ticket, and for half the price just by going to Ebay.

I did not see that one but you are 100% correct and if I was a cosigner of that I would be very mad bc given the crazy prices of other items Im not real sure the bidders caught that...bc the last Game 8 (granted it was great shape) sold for $48k at Heritage within the year...if properly labeled and described given the fact that everything else went for a premium I bet this ticket would have sold for over $50k... that's just my opinion

Yah, but the consigner should have known what it was. They should have gotten that fixed by PSA long ago. 3 F-ups: consigner, PSA & Christies.

But yah REA did better with a lesser graded one, correctly identified, so yah it very well could have gone higher if properly identified, but the 3 Stooges all botched it.
