Or just some jerk crushing a set collectors soul.

I think everyone mis-read my sarcasm.

Yeah man, sorry you missed out on it. At least the buyer let you take a picture with all your other ones. That's a shame. Would've been such a sweet run. 1 to 5 and now it will never happen. Hopefully it turns up for sale in the future.

Sweet photoshopping job!

Hope the recent winner puts it back on the block soon!

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

I think I have about 20 of those cans still sealed. Maybe it's time to grab the can opener!

That was a redemption, correct?

I think that one has the rare variation in the dufex pattern. If you look closely at the scan, it has a kind of a diamond pattern in the gold part and the silver triangles on the side are more of a flat silvery finish with no dufex. Compare that with the more common variety which has concentric circles in the dufex including the silver corner sections.

AH HA!! I looked at that thing a few times and couldn't figure it out but good eyes. I wasn't aware there was a difference. Had me scratching my head quite a bit..

I think he just has people randomly "buy" some cards to make it look like it sold, because they always end up bAck for sale
