Shill Bidding or did I just get Lucky?!?!

[Be8el0ve]

I just purchased a Jeter 09 Ultimate Patch #2/5, Jeter's jersey number, last week for $384.55.

This one just ended tonight at $1,025.00

Did I get lucky or was it shilled?

Looks bad, but the #3 bidder was still $555. I have seen a huge price spike on nice/star patches in the past week.

I bid with you on the 1st and the 2nd makes no sense to be honest.

The W is harder to find than the N? :lol:

~Don't you guys know anything? The one that went for 1g is #1/5, therefore it is a true 1/1! Geesh.~

You are only lucky if you are paid already.

I think you're right... #3/5 just popped up and its an N! :lol: :lol:

There was no shill bidding, just terrible luck with two jokers that have no reason to be on ebay. No bigger roller coaster though than to see that card jump from $450ish - $550ish - $1000+ in 4 seconds and then only to see the winning bidder has only 1 feedback and it was for not paying on a $850 Chris Johnson Exquisite RC Auto Patch.

Hopefully the second chance offer hits at $555!

I definitely got lucky... #3/5 ended with a BO of $825.00

Hmmm interesting. So did the person who won this see the other one end in auction at over $1k (even though that wasn't a real sale), so they offered $800+?? Regardless, it looks like you got your 2/5 at a good price.
