I'm excited to see where this one lands!

Anyone want to bet me $.1,000 that it's somewhere between $2 and $200,000.00.

The consigner's share of that is likely $38,000, so roughly $11,000 lost in ten weeks time...ouch!

I wonder if this thread had anything to do with the high price on ebay? That will teach you about doing expensive (to most), quick flips.
A lot of prognosticator's didn't quite hit the mark. It has to be a 100k card!

yup...back to reality where rarity doesn't always equal value. Possibly poor timing as well?

Nope.

The moral of the story is that eBay is the superior auction house. Bar none!

I just don't understand how one can expect to profit on a quick flip when there is typically a 20% buyer's premium?
