Default Ticket Stub Flipper Gets Crushed

I'm guessing no one is stepping up and admitting it was them, but whoever this was sure took a bath.

Ty Cobb Last Game Ticket Stub

Lelands Feb/March 2022 - $16,600:

Last night at Goldin exact same stub/PSA # sells for $5100 - high bid was 4250 (most likely the consignors take)

Plus if they paid Goldin any selling fees.....approx a 12-13K bath OUCH!!!!!

I also saw a known Ebay seller bought during the madness of 2021 & early 2022 a Ruth Called Shot Ticket (& program), and he tried flipping on Ebay and also lost BIG recently. He was a Type 1 photo seller prior to Covid and tried his hand at Tickets and hopefully learned to stay in his lane.

I also saw a Ticket Flipper take a beating at Heritage in July & Aug with their consignments.

A lesson for all you youngsters out there, don't buy when things are peaking. Not everything rises. If you bought Tickets during 2021 to early 2022 hopefully you are a collector and not a flipper because flippers who didn't know what they were doing are learning the hard way now.
