I wish those two people would contact me about buying some tough old judges! I got five Louie Ville cards that could be had for the right price and those prices look right to me
Louisville cards are a combo of tough players to find and a popular team to collect, two things that can drive up OJ prices to levels that seem absurd but take it from me from experience, if you pass up a tough OJ once you may not see it again. I have a few cards I regret not buying and my bid if they come up again will be much higher than what I would've originally paid
