T206 steve evens -$$$$$$$$$$

[G1911]

List your Evans' cards boys, it's free cash. Money printer goes brrrrr

Strange. I sold the Evens proof earlier this year, I never was good at that whole timing thing

[RCMcKenzie]

I took a nap and 2 more sold and 2 more were listed.

I looked in my raw T206 box and have this low grade one. It's not a rare card.

It's not for sale, gang.


This kind of stuff is more fun to me than actually buying the cards.

Is there something going on in Reddit? Isn't that where crazy stuff starts like the Gamestop market pinch.

Serious answer is no, the cards sub is not doing this. Nor any of the discords as far as I can tell.

A shot in the dark, but maybe the image was discovered to be someone other than Evans? There has to be a dumb reason for this...

[Lobo Aullando]

We'll find out soon enough.

In about three or four months there'll be a new thread on whether it's actually Shoeless Joe.

Let us all show our T206 Evans, so that if the compulsive buying culprit is among us, we can either prove that you can't corner the market when it comes to common T206 cards, or perhaps make an easy, incredibly lucrative sale.

17 sales today on ebay, most after this thread started. They are any and every random Evans. Like a hedge fund guy just learned his great, great granddad played baseball.

There's something fishy about the Piedmont in this sale

Here's the card in question that I pasted in between the front and back of a a Polar Bear Image I have in one of my print flaw my folders.

What about those of us working towards 520 who don’t have Evans yet? (Like me!). This is the worst thing I’ve read all day.

Heck, I'm just trying to finish a Cardinals "any back" set and now have Evans AND O'Hara to worry about now. Oof...

[RCMcKenzie]

I see what you are saying, Pat. The buyer may be getting scammed by some typical ebayers, but he is also buying from some very well known collectors and dealers. Click on the sales.

Hey Rob, I'm not questioning the other sales just the one I provided a link to.
It has a Piedmont back and all of the stains and marks match up with the Polar Bear example that I posted.

Pat. I see what you mean about that eBay sale. Seems like the same card. When you look at the back scan, the corner and edges don’t really match the pic of the back. Maybe it was cracked out of the ‘A’ holder and the seller included a scan of the wrong back (should be a polar bear back). Just a thought.

Meaning…in that eBay auction, the two scans provided don’t appear to be the same card. To my eye, the corners don’t match (top, left especially) and the edges appear to be different.

Hey Sonny, Yeah it does look like the back doesn't match the front. Odd though because the seller hasn't sold any other cards and he doesn't have any other cards listed either.

Relieved to find that the T206 Evans I have in my set is in perfectly adequate condition.

Thank you for confirming - I guess this guy actually is paying these prices. Wow

[frankbmd]

I am offering a full refund to the party who purchased my
T206 Steve Evans several years ago. No questions asked.

[Eric72]

I guess this (whatever this is) has begun to move to the next phase. It looks like only one has sold today. No matter, though.

"...hey, look at the comps on this card..."
