Default And you thought the Loisiana Purchase went cheap

Of course I was dissappointed at the low bid this historically significant card went for. I'll bet the buyer will stand to make 5x his money.

Love it! One of the best descriptions I've seen on Ebay...almost feels like it should be an Onion article/want-ad.

All it needed was a mention of grandpa's bible/trunk/attic and it would have been perfect.

I'd pay a nickel for a card with 666 on it.

The title of the auction is great, especially the 'Clearly'

I want going to bid 2 cents but, since I live in VA, I'd have gotten nailed on the state sales tax.

"Please bid with the seriousness a card of this magnitude deserves."

Be careful what you ask for...........
