Nope, still loved. I can't find it right now for some reason, but I was coincidentally watching a Ripken #/50 last night that ended somewhere around $100. I have been holding a Justin Upton #/5 for years now hoping he'd finally have his breakout season.

Beyond the red, white and black, I haven't seen any of the other Winfields show up anywhere.

I take that back, there is currently a Blue on Sportlots for $10, which seems a tad steep.

Its hard to know what's going on here - take a look at the bid activity.

All the bidders have over a third of their activity with this single seller for some reason.

Bid activity is only for the past 30 days. For instance - one bidder shows over 50% activity with that seller... but it's all on that one card (13 bids).
Those bidders may be Masterpiece set builders who only come out of the woodwork for certain items.

I was the seller of these and I was as stunned as anyone these went for as much as they did. The retail case I got from Blowout for Black Friday was very very good to me :).

And as for the person implying there was some shady activity going on? Not even close. My reputation has been solid on eBay for over 14 years. I was pleasantly surprised to see a lot of those framed parallels jump like crazy at the last minute - 3 set builders going up against each other is good for the old return on investment :)

every item on ebay is shilled in the opinion of some


every single one

It's so hard to prove though, and everyone swears they know how to spot it.

I suspect shilling more if it's an acct with only a handful of feedback. That's when I start worrying. One of the few reasons I don't like to bid early.

I had success selling my low numbered parallels from this set a couple years ago. The profits were excellent.
As soon as I saw the Oswalt for sale I knew it would go for big money.
