I guess selling mine a few years ago wasn’t such a good idea.

I wonder if the bidders even knew this premium has a border on it. I'm leaning towards no.

Or if they thought it is a real signature. For that item, to me. It was about 5k too much, in that condition.

Was just 2 bidders going back and forth from $1600 up to the final price. Weird.

All it takes is 2!

Especially if they’re both motivated. And hopefully the winner actually has the cash to honor their bid…

+1 agreed and that is also why many sellers put on higher than market prices on cards thinking they will find someone potentially unexpected in the cards that will be willing to pay the asking prices.

And they often get it

Are you all sure this is a legit sale? Before assuming so, wait and see if the seller ever gets positive feedback for this. Also, watch and see if these same premiums suddenly start showing up more on Ebay now, usually with much higher than expected starting bids or BIN prices.

A few months ago, I came across a series of Ebay auctions all selling the same/similar 2002 Topps 206 game used bat relic card of Honus Wagner. There were several, about 4 or 5, that supposedly sold for anywhere from just under $2K to over $5K. Not always from the same seller, nor always to the same buyer. But with some similar parties through the mix, and some people bidding in multiple auctions for the same Wagner relic card. The odd thing was, not a one of those supposedly sold and completed sales of that similar card resulted in any of the sellers ever getting one single positive feedback reference from the sale of their Wagner relic card. Now I could see 1, maybe 2, such different auctions where the different buyers decided not to leave the seller feedback, but for 4 or 5 different auctions of the same somewhat rare (only 300 supposedly produced) relic card suddenly selling over the course of just a month or two?!?! No way this wasn't some scam involving multiple parties, or at least people with multiple Ebay accounts. And that doesn't include the multiple other listings of the same card that didn't result in a sale, all again during this same time period. Prior to that sudden run of Ebay auctions for that particular card, a copy of it would pop up on Ebay maybe (and that's a big maybe) 2 or 3 times a year, at most. The volume of Ebay auctions for this particular card suddenly popping up was already extremely fishy to begin with.

There is actually one current listing of this same Wagner bat relic card sitting on Ebay now, at a $4,999 BIN or Best Offer price. And at that amount, sit it will. Despite there having supposedly been multiple sales of this same card, in this price range/vicinity, just back in May-June of this year.

Not all Ebay sales are the same, or necessarily real, it seems. Don't know for certain where this one with the Ruth premium stands.
