SO - What the HECK is going on with 1955 Topps Baseball?
 
Been Collecting and selling 1955 Topps for probably the last 30 years and have never seen anything like this -

WTF

That's a head scratcher.

The PSA set registry effect is real. Crazy to me.

LOL - Yes - Yes they do

I see no scenario in this lifetime (or any other) where I would be paying upwards of $1200 for a card that is realistically worth $50 Tops.

There's nothing new here. Just another buffoon fishing for suckers by listing items for a ridiculous price. That will continue until Ebay introduces a listing fee of some sort.

:(

It's frustrating that you cannot block buyers on ebay. I run into this seller every now and again. They frequently list mostly complete sets, the same set I'm sure, so sometimes you have to scroll through pages of cards that are unreasonably priced if they're selling a set that you regularly check on.

+1 on that. And there is no shortage of suckers.

I have them blocked on most of my searches, it's nice to not see their museum.

Ignore the sticker & offer what your willing to pay with this cat!
 
I’ve actually bought a few cards from them. The reality is you have to offer them a price that is a little bit below comp and then see if they’ll bite on it. They always list five or 10X of comps. The seller strictly a middle person and they do not own the cards.

That’s got to be a fat finger typo.

118? Or dare I say $188 would be more in the ballpark.

He's a tough one from what I recall. Consolo, freese and the weird logo on groat
