It just undersold on Ebay again

What point are you trying to make? That people are pumping ruth? Seems like an odd take but interested.

At what point does 'undersold' become 'market'? Two sales? Three? Five?

I sincerely hope this bodes well for the offbeat, rare Ruth cards, but the card was already a $58K card, so not sure it does. That said, Ruth cards have seen amazing growth. I never, ever thought a 1921 Exhibit would be a $30,000 card but there you have it.

It definitely happens. There are times when a card values drop significantly simply because the most recent buyers failed to understand the nuances that made one copy sell for far less than other copies in the same grade. It's happening right now with Wilt Chamberlain rookies in a PSA 7. They were selling for $20k until one of them that was WAY overgraded sold for ~$13k which had a horrible tilt to it, was way off centered, and had 4 soft corners. It would be a 5 if graded today, but it had an old school serial number of 02xxxxxx from back in the days when PSA overgraded cards. By itself, it might not have done much to the market, as the next one did sell for around $20k again, but the problem is that the next PSA 7 sale was another overgraded old serial starting with 0 PSA slab that again sold for something like $13k. Then the next time a 7 hit the market, buyers got scared because they thought the market had crashed on this card and a really nice copy then goes for $15k or so. Then, another. Now, it's the new baseline (until it isn't again).

Certain people are so full of crap, their eyes are brown. Maybe they were the ones hoarding toilet paper.

You're an idiot (as usual). You really think cards don't go undersold many thousands of times per day on eBay and for countless cards in literally every single major online auction? Countless bidders participate in these auctions for this very reason.

This card gets listed ON EBAY raw from an "attic find" with the title "Old Babe Ruth Sports Card" and you think it just pulled top dollar? GTFO here. Care to place a side wager on that ingenious take Mr. "Republicaninmass"? How about you put your money where your mouth is. If this card gets graded a flipped, I'll bet you a grand that it sells for more than $75k. Want to place a bet captain dipshit?

LOL. Oh don't mind him. He is just here to insult, rage and argue. Takes nothing to set him off too. He is a great read.

I made a comment about what I thought the card was worth. Then I got shit on. Then I got shit on again. Then again. Then I shit back. It's called having a spine.

Dude you argue. You come in all charged up on any topic you post on acting like you are the only who is right and talk down to absolutely anyone who has a different pov or opinion. You are so full of yourself. Has nothing to do with having a spine. If ya had one you would not need to be so aggressive.

Where did I ever say I think it's only worth $75k? I stand by my estimate. It's a 6 figure card. Capatain Trumpster thinks it's worth $50k. I say it's worth $100k. $75k seems like a reasonable place to set a betting line. I'm trying to catch fish here.

If by "pulled it out of his ass" you mean I'm literally the only person in this entire thread who actually pointed to some relevant data and a side-by-side comparison photo, then yes, I did.

Mhm. You cited a $59K sale and then claimed it is $100-$150K, though you didn't buy it for half or a third of it's value for some reason.

Sure sounds like pulling it completely out of your ass.
