Ah, that's the issue, I'm talking about more than one admission. There's the admission that the card was trimmed, but also the admission of shill bidding in their auctions. That sale price was the highest bid, but maybe not truly the sale price, which could mean that 2.8 million is not really the benchmark for that card.

Maybe it's Walt Williams' neck

Not expecting many people to get it, but was inspired by the Mordecai Brown post.

Always good to see a GABBCFTBGB reference!

I'm guessing it's either a 1988 Fleer Billy Ripken FF error PSA 7 or a 1989 Upper Deck Griffey PSA 7 or even better.

Alright, Steve! I need a translation before I have to call BULL***T!

PSA 10 Gregg Jefferies rookie card (Lot of 10,000,000)

Didn't know much about these guys so did a little googling. Interesting read. Brought me across Don West. A guy I had long since forgotten. You want to feel gross...go watch his Beanie Bears video. I showered twice after that one.

The Great American Baseball Card Flipping, Trading and Bubble Gum Book by Brendan Boyd and Fred Harris.

It pictured various "common" baseball cards (and a few stars), with often humerous profiles of the players.

One of the profiles was with a picture of the 1969 Topps Walt Williams, where they said "And yes, Virginia, Walt Williams had no neck".

The sale at 2.8 million was a private sale. This card was not part of the shill bidding that took place at Mastro Auctions.

Ah, did not realize that.

Maybe it's the map from Time Bandits?

Now that's funny.....Although I would think such a map would sell for much more than 8 figures

It's a time machine that can only be used once. This machine will allow you to take a trip back in time and see whatever sporting event LIVE that you would like to see.

If you had a spare $10 million dollars laying around that you could spend frivolously would THAT be something you would spend your money on?

The chance to get a Lajoie would drive the price.

I'll bite, I hate him and the crap he did to the hobby I love. with all the garbage he was huckstering on shop at home. I think he is a horrible person and the way he,in my opinion, misrepresented what he was offering should have been criminal. It was sure as hell immoral in my opinion. If Kenny doesn't like this I don't care. I find him repugnant. I won't cease and desist on my opinion of him I think he's a jerk and a blowhard I'd consign to any auction house before his. If he were the only option to buy and sell with I'd find a new hobby. I actually cringe when Leon sends out the emails about his auctions. In fact Leon if u could remove me from the list of spam about his auctions I'd appreciate it. I wouldn't buy a Wagner t206 from him if it were half priced.

Where is everyone getting this 8 figures idea from? Didn't see any numerical value in the email... Would be awesome if it was the Jackie Robinson debut jersey. Whatever it is I doubt we will be disappointed
