1925 Gehrig

[Frank A]

Heritage Lou Gehrig 1925 exhibit already up for sale on ebay. That's what I call not wasting any time.

Guy's certainly entitled to make 250% for his efforts.

Just curious, doesnt people who would be interested in a item like this know what it just went for? At least be motivated by the price tag to see what value you get for the price you pay...

I agree. If someone is going to spend the value of a small car on a baseball card, I'd be hard pressed to imagine that they just log onto eBay one day as a goof and drop 20 or 25K. Like maybe they use this Internet thing to find a recent sale or two.

I used to own that card. I was not the Heritage consigner (i traded it about a year ago). I saw it on eBay yesterday, and while in all fairness it is at an OBO, I was equally annoyed. It's his card and he can ask whatever he wants, but I can't stand seeing a card put up on eBay at 250% markup from a recent sale. It's always driven me nuts, but I'm sure he will gladly take a 20% profit. He's just asking for a high base number.

I only care what a person wants for a card if i was interested in purchasing it. Prices may not change in a day but they can change a lot over a very short period of time. If card prices never changed a card would go for the same price forever
