I don't find this "strange" at all.....every day on Ebay, I see lower Graded
cards going for prices that have to be less than the seller has invested in.
For example tougher Hi #s (either in post-War or pre-War cards) that are only
graded Ex (or less) are being won by only a single bid, that is typically $10.
At a live show (in my case at Philly) I can usually sell the same "raw" card for
at least twice that amount. So, when you consider a given card, that the seller
has paid $15 (or $20) to have graded and the usual ebay fees and include the
initial cost of that card, it just doesn't make any sense to me. I do not under-
stand why sellers do this. But, after all is said and done, it is not really any of
my concern, anyhow.
I just hope for the seller's sake, he is able to have other listed cards that result
in profits for him....in order to make up for these losing ones.
NO....there is really nothing "strange" with Trae's transaction....it is an everyday
occurence, many times over on Ebay.
