Someone just got a huge steal...

Terrible listing, good fortune for someone. I probably should've bid more aggressively.

its memorabilia, and its not authenticated. Although its not a bad deal, i would not classify it as a "steal" Unless i am missing someones signature... I would say in a retail setting this would fetch around 200-250 tops.. If that where re-run i would say max of 150ish.. You would have to authenticate it for it to get significantly more.

Roger Maris & Billy Martin?

rehmus · Jun 14, 2012

Authenticated cuts of Maris & Martin = $400+ combined...

And those look spot on.

triplehattrick21 · Jun 14, 2012

Okay you guys would be correct, My bad on that one. I didn't look close enough to see the maris auto on there. If those are legit, that would qualify as a pretty good steal.

vwnut13 · Jun 14, 2012

The seller doesn't even mention the Maris or the Martin.

The three he did mention I think I might see on there, but I'm not sure. Where's Joe Morgan? Niekro going through the Maris?

rehmus · Jun 14, 2012

Either they're signed on the inside (even more value!) or he just read the names on the program and hoped those were the signatures.

The Maris auto is sweet!!! Definitely a good deal.

This was my thought as well. By not putting Maris or Martin in the title, the seller left a good chunck of money on the table. You would think that someone who "specialize in sports-related memorabilia including programs, yearbooks, magazines and trading cards" would have a better idea to list Maris and Martin in the title.

This is the funniest part about the listing:

About Me: I specialize in sports-related memorabilia including programs, yearbooks, magazines and trading cards. I also sell a wide variety of other items in smaller quantities. I have been collecting for more than 20 years and have been on eBay for 5 years.

He specializes in that stuff and he didn't even mention Maris or Martin signatures. I wouldn't want an expert like him listing any of my stuff on consignment. Seems like a rookie mistake to me!!
