Listed at multiple AHs?

Not sure if this is the item, but Pristine Auctions is strange. Many of their auctions/best items do have reserves and they don’t even have possession of those items.

So “reserve not met” and “this item ships from an approved vendor” are common things to see there. As are items being listed over and over and over and never selling.

So whoever this particular “approved vendor” is, they can also sell the item elsewhere it seems. I can’t figure the whole system out, but I stopped even looking at Pristine once I realized this wasn’t a standard auction house situation.

Yep, that’s it. I went searching to learn something about the actual ball they signed, and found it listed elsewhere all over the place. I guess they just list stuff subject to a reserve that they believe they can then acquire the item and turn a profit.
Last I looked the bidding was at like $2400, and that clearly wasn’t going to get the job done.

I met a few of their people at the east coast national. Nice folks and I’ve enjoyed using their app. They sell a ton of stuff, all sports, but over 95% of it is modern. Lots of signed jerseys, helmets, etc.
