Of course the auction has been ended. I don't know if it was my report or not but I did mention the auction # where the seller bought the card. Bad seller imho......even though they seem to have great feedback. (which kind of sucks)

Well the listing itself still exists, and says "The seller ended this listing early because the item is no longer available for sale," so ebay didn't pull it.

That probably means that it was sold to some unsuspecting individual, possibly one of the offerers, outside of ebay.

The seller might have gotten email comments and knew the jig was up so they ended it. That, or they might have caught a fly in their trap....

I sent him a particularly unpleasant email and received this in response -- and the listing was then pulled:

"We will send the card in to SGC get it graded. We are an excellent ebay seller and we guarantee every item we purchase as you can not ebay our feeback of over 6 years."

Of course, his comments mean nothing.

They don't have anything on ebay over $2000. The Wagner was listed for $4500. As their top card in their inventory it is unlikely they made an 'honest mistake'.
