I have the feeling this individual is a bottomless pit spigot type of collector.

Maybe, or he's taking a break. There are quite a few listed on eBay right now.

I added my Evans to the pile on eBay. I'm not in a selling mode, but if I can sell it and buy a green Cobb... I'm going to take that deal.

The ship may have sailed. Seems like there has been no New Ebay sales the last 2 days. Congratulations to all who have had the luck to cash in on this Evens buying spree. Unfortunately for me I sold my PSA 5 several Months ago for $250.00 .Still Not sure how the price soar of this card happened.The buyer could have easily picked up these common T206 cards at a small fraction of what he paid if he just stayed patient and stayed under the radar.
Glad that I started this post . Seems like everyone on Net 54 who had an Evens card cashed in .

I kept mine. It was way too sketchy for me to fish. Like Davy Crockett said, "Be sure you're right, then go ahead."

Do you think he got grounded after his Mom opened her paypal bill?

I kept mine, too. However, it was for different reasons.

1 - I'm chipping away at the (520 card) set. I'd hate to go back and try to buy this card again later. Price memory can be stubborn. Dealers can be stubborn, too. I didn't want to go through the futility of discussing comps with people.

2 - Let's say I sold the card on eBay for $3,000. After eBay fees and taxes, roughly half that money would be gone. I'd have possibly traded the card; however, losing half the sale proceeds to fees and taxes seems silly. (actually, silly is the "nice" word I'll use on a public message board.

3 - My copy was a gift from someone a couple years ago. Yes, I realize the card is mine to do with what I choose. I chose to treat it like part of my collection...not an opportunity to make a little quick cash.

Congrats on keeping your card. I'm saying if I knew what was going on, i.e.- Justin Verlander is on a spending spree. I would sell to Verlander.

I'm starting to think the people saying the prices will return to normal are right.

I gave my T206 Evans card a verbal warning after he off-handedly suggested that he wouldn't mind a change of scenery to greener pastures.

Let it be known a second instance will be considered insubordination, and could resort in his removal from his T206 brethren to a facility housing strip card inmates.
