Photo asking prices - just insane
Asking prices on eBay just seemingly off the wall. I guess there are a lot of collectors not really looking to move photos, but mark everything at $10,000 or $15,000 or $25,000 just in case. Buy something for $1,500, post for sale on eBay for $8,000. Buy a photo from one of the big AHs for $12,000; immediately list on eBay for $40,000. A business model for some. And of course people can ask whatever they want. Just seems like the aspirations of some have far outrun where the market actually is. I don't see people buying cards at auctions and listing on eBay for 3x or 4x what they paid a few days later, but maybe its happening.
