Candiman Flip Auction Is Now History

frankbmd · #1 10-13-2018, 10:25 AM

Once in a lifetime opportunity to bid on a Candiman flip live auction. I hate to part with cards of this quality, but want to share my good fortune with a lucky member of this forum.

The winner will pay actual shipping charges of $3.50 added to their bid.

An opening bid of $0.00 is required though.

Incremental bids in any amount >than $0.00 are then required.

With a deal like this you probably don't even care what you are bidding on, but some may want to know.

Up for auction is a complete 1986 Topps Tiffany 38 card team set of the New York Mets.

(Pause to allow you to catch you breath)

The cards are pack fresh, box fresh with razor sharp corners and edges. Handle with extreme care.

The cards are all the same size with no evidence of trimming or alteration of any kind,

In fact I'll guarantee it. If the cards are altered, your winnings are FREE. They may be anyway.

Take a look.

These glistening cards are scanned in miniature to protect your eyes.

The auction begins immediately and will end on Monday evening after Mason Crosby's first successful field goal attempt. If Crosby does not kick a field goal, the auction will end when the game does.

This is a legitimate auction. Authorities have been notified and your Bid is cancelled.

Furthermore your bid is only worth $0.03 which is less than a nickel.

50 jiao and I’ll throw in an Oba-Mao T shirt personally imported from Shanghai to cover postage.

On second thought, i withdraw the valuable antique Chach-kee shirt from consideration and will offer a bag of previous century unusable fly tying feathers, deloused and delivered.

50 jiao = 5 yuan = 72 US cents.

Keith’s current bid is accepted at $0.72

If he should win, US currency will eliminate any money changer fees.

Require confirmation of feather offer for postage. My drunken flyfisherman attorney insists (he hates those feathers).

Bid retractions are a fatal BST violation. Your bid of $0.72 stands.

Does the auction include the envelope with Dothan postmark?

Bram99 · #20 10-20-2018, 04:44 PM

75 Baht and a dried salamander?

angolajones · #21 10-20-2018, 07:35 PM

The 86 Mets were amazing and they took on my Red Sox. I was torn. I really wanted to relive 13 year old me and win these cards. Did they sell or will they be going up again? Inquiring minds want to know.
