Auction oddities: Using the PSA Auction Results site

[swarmee]

Thanks for letting me know about Best Offers Accepted not being correctly logged by PSA. I will see that they get that information. Usually watchcount shows the proper Best Offer value, but eBay may not be accurately providing it to PSA (or VCP for that matter).

Do you work for PSA? I use google, ebay advanced search on sold sales and several other sites for pricing. I don't use VCP or any other pay site.

No, but I just submitted a correction to the listing. The user HawkDynasty on COMC/ih8ca on Blowout is in direct contact with them about this service.

So I have an "in". Plus, they've already implemented some of my recommendations and are looking into the others. I work for the U.S. Air Force.

Just checked these cards I bought via Best Offer:

11/4/2017	$56.00	7	263293949547	eBay	cookiemonster501	Best Offer	27663581

10/7/2017	$34.00	8	362103254674	eBay	psagradedcards.com	Best Offer	24266161

10/7/2017	$15.00	1	302431553632	eBay	dlemon01	Best Offer	20408951

They have the correct sale price. Maybe there's just a delay involved in retrieving the Best Offer prices.

Just looked up some others and it looks like they've removed pricing data for PSA/DNA autographed cards, rather than just noting that they're autographed. I would prefer to see the autographed cards listed with a note saying they're auto rather than deleting the sales history of those cards.

I’ve searched this database and found that something like 70% of my purchases on relatively scarce items don’t show up (things like bazooka boxes where there are only 7-8 total listed over the past 5 years, and mine from the past few months are not)

Can you see the certification number and barcode in your first image? Do you put PSA in your title?

A clemente rookie graded psa 6.5 sold by Pietra cert #25244961 is CURRENTLY listed for 7499.00. The PSA database shows the same cert sold by the same seller on August 1 2017 for 7999.00 - a HUGE jump over Previous sales.

I don't put PSA in the search bar. Two specific examples are 1960 Morrrell Meats Koufax (PSA 6, purchased mid-2016 off eBay) and 1961 Morrell Meats Koufax (PSA 6, purchased mid-2016 off eBay). One was an auction, one was a best offer accepted; neither show up...
