You would think if he admired him that much he would keep the card, eh?

His response back to the Artist in the Questions & Answers section just add to the sappiness and ridiculousness of it all.

One of the better sketches I have seen, but the price, well ah yeah.

I want those $200.00 in eBay bucks....That's surely worth $2M! :lol:

I'm afraid to look at these listings - I'm always scared of somehow accidentally "buying it now". Haha - it's completely unreasonable, but it's like standing on top of a tall building and being scared about jumping... totally irrational.

That's quite the write up, though. :lol:

Question & Answer Answered On
Q: Hi I just wanted to let you know I'm the artist. Luis Diaz. Here's my website for other samples of the art. http://ldiazart.daportfolio.com/gallery/84476 Feb-24-10
A: Thank you Mr. Diaz for your message. I was very happily surprised to see that this sale had reached your ears. I suppose right away that I should tell you that this came to me like a revelation. That is why I have chosen to go so high with this card. It truly is a masterpiece and with what Derek Jeter has done for baseball and with the way he has handled himself as a professional athlete, it was a wonderful idea that I just acted upon. I really do hope to sell this at this price and the proceeds are certainly going to benefit as many kids as possible. Thanks again for contacting me. John

So now we know kids and teens won't get a penny.

Luis Diaz. Funny thing is, is you can easily reach him for a commission. (Friend him on Facebook) I had him do a Georges St Pierre sketch card for $150.

It also says "10% of the final sale price will support Kids With Heart National Assn for Children's Heart Disorders, Inc. (Small deduction may apply)"


So not sure what to believe. But yeah, the seller is crazy.

Diaz is a great sketch card artist and I have a couple Fielder's I really like of his.

Can he use the word " Topps" in the upper right hand corner ... ?

Just Curious ...
