What the hell is this card that just ended, and why did it only go for .99?? I check ebay religiously, and never even saw this get listed?

Nice lot, Anthony. That Gold Refractor sure is tough, I don't even remember the last time I saw one listed.

Here's mine

Someone has taken scrapbooking scissors and cut the corners of the card.

Can anyone tell me what happened with this auction??? I am pretty sure this same card just went for .99 with one bid about a week ago??

There was also another that went for $1.25. Maybe someone thought it was really a 2001? I can't believe someone would spend that much and not know from the pic what the card is. I would like to see the feedback when/if it gets posted.

Yea I know, I mean it has a high BV of $10. So thats good for the seller, but the buyers must of not known what they were bidding on.

One of the rarest McGwire cards I have seen for a while! Kinda think its a little out of my price range though.

Every one of his cards is VERY VERY over priced. Like 5 or 6 times as much as they are worth. I offered him beckett value for some of his McGwire's (over $150 on some) and they were automatically declined.

It only takes one impatient buyer to overpay, and the seller thinks he's figured something out.

I'd like to find those buyers. I've got some 91 fleer to sell them

docdw25 · Dec 27, 2012

Well it was only a matter of time until I started buying cards again. Here are a few that I've picked up over the past few weeks. I need to get a new scanner so these are from Joe's site not the actual cards:

Shadow series #/99. I also bought the Premier Date #/49 but we don't have a picture yet

I have more refractors and artist proofs as well as more incoming. Hope everyone is well and I look forward to catching up with everyone.

I finally dug this power package jumbo out. I know this is on a lot of peoples want lists. Its not in mint condition(it has two dinged corners that don't show up on the auto crop) but there are no creases and it presents well. If anyone is interested I can try to get a better scan showing the corners(any suggestions on how to do that would be great). Otherwise I am going to list it on ebay if nobody wants it.

jszczech · Dec 27, 2012

Looks like I might need to clean the scanner too haha.

After placing the card face down on the scanning bed, you could place a piece of colored paper over the card. Your scanning software may then auto-crop the edges of the pieces of paper, but not the card itself.
