I would never spend money on a GAI-graded card, especially a card that's going to command a high price. Proceed with extreme caution.

Bidder Information
Bidder: d***f( 831Feedback score is 500 to 999)
Feedback: 100%Positive
Item description: Item Title: T206 Cy Young HOF Bare Hand Cleveland Piedmont 150 GAI 8.5 " RAZOR SHARP "
Bids on this item: 2

30-Day Summary
Total bids: 1840
Items bid on: 1570
Bid activity (%) with this seller: 31% Help
Bid retractions: 40
Bid retractions (6 months): 144

Rick says he keeps his auctions clean though, so I am not worried this person might be a shill.
