An absurd ebay 1/1

Matsuicollector · Apr 24, 2011

Well, I've been looking for the card below to complete my sans-1/1 rainbow and haven't seen one pop up in a while.

So when I see the thumbnail pic I get really excited, then I see the BIN price. At first I'm like wow, this seller is charging about 20x what this card is actually worth. So i figure it's at least #'d to his jersey # in which case $15-$20 might be reasonable. However, the description of the 1/1 makes me want to kill the seller

Coincidentally, 28 is also the number of hairs Posada plucked from his nose to prepare for the photo shoot.

I have a hard time thinking this seller will consider any reasonable offer.

+1, worst that can happen is he declines. Who cares.

Though I do feel that I need to add: what an idiot seller. This is the kind of **** that needs to be removed by eBay. Putting "1 of 1" in the title of that listing is a blatant lie.

I clicked on the EBay link with the expectation that it probably wasn't that bad......
but yeah, that is one of the worst "1/1's" I've ever seen. To me that one reaches that level where it is so absurd, and such a stretch that it actually winds up infuriating.

lol the funniest 1 I saw recently was something like “this is #7/250- like bond, james bond, a true 1 of 1”. seriously? i think some sellers put way too much energy into coming up w/lame excuses to put (spam) 1 of 1 in the listing

TBTwinsFan · Apr 24, 2011

IDK what the card is worth, but just offer him that + a couple bucks. You might get it.

Donutme · Apr 24, 2011

I too would like to know how much this crazy listing will fetch.

Posadas EARS are preventing me from bidding !

IndyManning18 · Apr 24, 2011

Technically any numbered card is a 1/1. This guys is an idiot. 1st, Jersey and last numbers should only count in the "1/1" debate and even that is questionable. Offer this guy an amount you are comfortable with and if he declines so be it. There are 49 more out there somewhere.

Lol, how on earth did he even come up with that 1/1 theory!?!?!?!

When I come across a listing like this with title spam, I report them immediately. Everyone should do the same and get teach these lamos a lesson. If 10-15 people all reported his listing, I bet it would get yanked.

What you're overlooking is that it could become even rarer. If he homers in a new park, it becomes a one of none.

I've reported these lame "fake" 1/1 descriptions for a while in hopes that Ebay would take a stand and remove them, but after reporting about 30-40 listings in the past only to see that each and every one was left to run their duration, I've come to the conclusion that Ebay doesn't give a damn about it.

eBay only cares about kicking off sellers with 4.7 DSR ratings.

I have taken a dump in 10 different ball parks. So any card made of me #'d 10/* would be 1/1's!!!
