Cool collection! I don’t have as many but I like them a lot including this KC Blues pennant. It may be a different series but the feel and construction is identical.

Unsolicited Pennant Life Hack:

If you display in rigid holders, trim them to fit the pennant.

As you know, many from the 40s and 50s are only 26” or 27” long. Notable the “sliding runner” company pennants. They always look weird in the bigger holder and they are also hard to keep centered. So get them in as deep as possible, then cut off the empty 3” or so off the side end. You need a file to cut through the edges but the plastic part cuts like butter with a guillotine paper cutter. They fit perfectly as the dimensions are almost a perfect proportional match to the holder.

I do the same with the 3/4 sizes which are roughly 8” by 26”, although you need to cut off an edge and close with invisible tape (best to use is gift wrapping tape).

Default Interesting eBay experience
Couple months ago: eBay seller had a cool pennant for auction with a “make offer” option. I saw it early, made offer, he accepted, paid immediately. Sale confirmed.

A half hour later, sale cancelled.

Exact same pennant now being auctioned. Starting bid of $0.99. Pictured on a round white table.

Shocker (about the round white table). If you want to disclose which one it is, I'll be sure not to bid on it.

I’ll reach out, though it shouldn’t keep you from bidding. For the record, I think the obvious “modus operandi” of buying to flip is fine. But if a completed sale was meddled with … that’s not quite fine. There are worse selling tactics but still, this seems to cross a line of it is what it seems.

Any chance you could get it cheaper than your original offer?

Or will you not deal with the new seller?

Nah my guess is he offered more than I did after the fact knowing he will still turn a profit from the flip. I’m not gonna bother bidding. eBay should have firm policies regarding third parties meddling with completed sales, if in fact that’s what happened (as it appears).
