I had been looking for a 2001 Greg Nash BC auto for a good while, and one was finally listed a few days ago. I put an opening bid on it of $2 and put it on my watch list as it was scheduled to end last night. Yesterday morning it was up to 11 dollars or so, so I checked COMC (for the umpteenth time) just to make sure one hadn’t shown up there. There was one there for $10.25! I immediately bought it.

Here’s the “holy crap” part:

That Stan/Albert is crazy as its pretty plain, that Lou Certified makes no sense. That's silly, but I assume it was a set collector...??? And the $1 Lou pickup was great and great job adding the Nash finally for what looks like a good price.

I saw that a while back and it made me sad. LOL.
That BIN couldn't have been up very long because I'd been checking the bay quite often for the card and never saw it in time.

To be honest though, that's what you'd expect the card(s) to sell for at auction.

Nice sweep George. Just for the hell of it what did you set your max at?

My snipe was set at 511 but since I was able to watch it I manually bid 625. I probably screwed myself with the bid due to the new eBay mobile app, it is now a 1-click bid and I was expecting to see the confirm page.

Mr. Brock thanks you for the support

It sucks to pay over 400 but it would have been worse had you lost the bid. Glad you put all 5 together!

Here are two.

This is from August, but I just noticed it:

And this might be the biggest WTFOMGHOLYCRAP listing ever. As far as I can tell, it was a live auction

The Griffey says,"This Buy It Now listing has ended" but I can't believe that would be honored. Seller messed something up as he previously had it set at $649.99. Along with a lot of other nice Griffeys, none for $6.

 

[RStadlerASU22]

Wow to the Curtis and yes with the Griffey, no way that went through. The seller has a huge Griffey collection and that was entered wrong. So he may take a negative but that was an error.

The seller of that Griffey is one of our friends here. Great dude. Bought from and sold to several times. He knows what he has. It mustve been an accidental listing.

 

[mrdallas]

I won that card and it better be honored .......................................................................

J/K obviously, but man could you imagine
