On the sports card side, an eBay seller posted six of the Number on Front variant 1909 T51 Murad College Series last fall in ranging from Good to Excellent condition for Buy it Now. I needed three of them, and paid up to get the Michigan card for $150. I went to bed figuring two of the other "commons" at $50 and $100 would be there when I got up. They sold overnight. Haven't seen either listed since then.
And going way back on eBay, I was collecting F. Earl Christy college postcards when I was in college around 1999. Christy never did a Georgia Tech postcard, but a hand painted handkerchief signed by Christy with a Ga Tech girl was listed by an Atlanta museum that was clearing out some stock. I put in a $350 bid that was the max I could put on my credit card at the time, but got outbid. I haven't seen it relisted since, and I was the underbidder. I would probably pay $3000 for it now.
