Hmmm..."one half of one card from the 50's of (his) choice...", does he mean he chooses which half or does that mean he has several of those elusive half card beauties? Ridiculous. More like half wit.

Emerging Trend Forecast: Future submissions to PSA and SGC will be like ordering ribs: "Full slab or half slab?"

By selling half a card one is able to sell the same card two times. Twice the profit, and twice the fun!

I wonder if he actually meant "half off." I have no idea though.

Touching on what Jon said, my guess is the title was supposed to say "half off"

Looks like he had some nice hockey cards in previous auctions.

Gotta love this line however:

"WE DO NOT ANSWER QUESTIONS FOR ITEMS UNDER $20.US"





So for your own good I beg of everybody not to ask whether he meant "of" or "off".

Doesn't speak well of the Canadian Health Care System - at least the mental health part.
