Default Biggest steal you ever saw on ebay?

Posted By: Ben

lot of 25 (or so) mixed lot of e90-1 caramels and e92 dockmans, all commmons but all in vg'ish BINed on ebay for $150. This was abt 4-5 yrs ago.

and then a week later, same guy lists a e92 matty BIN $90, and a wagner for less BIN at or around $200 and I dont think many ppl viewed the auctions because they were all BINed almost immediately.

That's #1,

#2- A Boston Garter Lajoie, the black and white one, in a ebay live auction buried in a lot of post cards about half a year ago. Didnt even say boston garter in the auction title or description, and I came across it by fluke! Unfortunately, I waited until the just before the auctions went to the floor before I bid, so it was brutal when it went for $900!! Unbelievable steal. Had a poor cut top edge, if I remember correctly.

Those are the two biggest steals I've seen on ebay, but it's likely not more than a few people even got to see them. Might be cool to hear about all the great secret BIN triumphs that we've either seen or had ourselves in the past.
