I know I'm "outing" a current auction, but I think I'll risk it. This one made me laugh too hard to pass up. I'm sure the seller won't mind the free advertising. I hope no board members were looking to snatch this one up.

This was listed not too long ago. I actually think it brought over $200. If they ever put "filler card" in the dictionary there should be a picture of this card instead of a definition!

It's close which line made me laugh the loudest, but I think this one did:

THE COLLECTOR IN YOUR FAMILY IS DIFINATLY THIKING HOW GREAT ONE OF THESE CARDS WOULD LOOK IN HIS COLLECTION






...still laughing

AUTHICAED
DEFINATLY
DIFINATLY (I always forget which of those two is right.)
THIKING

First of all that card in auction is spectacular........spectacular poop. The seller definitely needs spell check.

BTW, don't we often use the word "right" when it should be "correct"?

Also, I was once told that people don't get "mad" they get "angry"....It's all so confusing to me..

<<where's Barry when we need him?>>

I wouldn't be calling for Barry until I began using capital letters at the start of my sentences! (LOL)


(By the way, I think Barry is out trying to get this card for his next auction.)

Besides the fact that the card looks like crap, I have been told it is also a fake.

I didn't see an ! or a smiley so I wasn't sure!

PS---That word seems to be one of the most frequently mis-spelled words I see in EBay descriptions!

I haven't been on this forum for awhile (my bad) and just noticed I was mixed into this lovely discussion.

First off, I use both "mad" and "angry", so if there is a distinction I don't know it. I must have been absent that day.

Anyway, not only is this seller spelling challenged, but if this isn't the worst looking card in the hobby, I don't know what is. It's probably a fake but how can you even tell? Very funny indeed.

It should be worth more if the winner has the brains to get it authicaed. He/she/it clearly had the brains to spot a bargain.
