Agreed on good to see Barry

Good lord, if someone offered me $125K for a card which I paid 1/50th of that for, I would sell that card so fast in a heartbeat. After all, I can keep the scan and the pictures and the memories. But that money can pay for a couple years of college or other fun ventures.

Barry,

Thanks for sharing. It was a fun read. Love the Federal's pennant as well.

Enjoyed reading the article. Great to see a post from Barry. I hope all is well.

I guess I'm missing the alleged "dispute". Seller wants more than the prospective buyer is offering and the story seems to end there.

I didn't see how this is a story. This is a very common "dispute" in any hobby.

No disrespect intended to the featured parties, but my first reaction was confusion as to what counts as journalism these days.

I guess the hook of the story, to the extent there is one, is that there is a subculture of baseball card collectors who focus on Jewish players. Even obscure ones. I am sure this is news (and maybe quite interesting) to people outside the hobby.

If this was worthy of an article, there are ebay sellers worthy of an entire book.

Dispute was buyer agreed to a price after seeing huge scans. Then backed out

Awfully hard to argue with that logic--+1!

All the best,
