What about those of us working towards 520 who don’t have Evans yet? (Like me!). This is the worst thing I’ve read all day.

Heck, I'm just trying to finish a Cardinals "any back" set and now have Evans AND O'Hara to worry about now. Oof...

No ones paying for these right seems scammy

It will be interesting to see what happens the next time one of these hits the BST.

I got paid $150 (and promptly!) for my eBay sale

[parkplace33]

Strike while the iron is hot folks!

[Howe’s Hunter]

Sure it’s a 1 of 1. Probably worth at least $100,000 in today’s market.

Totally confused here -

Does anybody have a clue why this card is "all of a sudden" a hot commodity?

[npa589]

Now, this would be an odd coincidence - but I believe Bla.po is a member here. Same username here as ebay. Sort of a unique name if it's not.

Need to call attention to this and call it out. Why can't people just show gratitude and not be the guy that ruins it?

To see what Dean's Cards will list one of these at...

[Blapo]

My thoughts:

I don’t really want to sell it
One just sold for $11K that was listed for $18K
If the buyer isn’t interested no harm, no foul
If he wants Evan’s so bad he is willing to pay…his deal not mine….

Frankly I would guess nothing happens, I pull it in a few days and life goes on.

Will be interesting to see the long term affects and how long this guy keeps this up….

Need to call attention to this and call it out. This is disgusting. Why can't people just show gratitude and not be the guy that ruins it?

I don’t understand what there is to call out.

So... anybody know (or want to disclose) why this person is spending all this cash on the Evans T206?

Christmas gifts ?

Eric i was thinking the same thing. Maybe Evans is someone great grandfather or relative and thus would be a cool gift to give to members of the family.

I am also curious to see if the spigot turns off after Christmas.

Number go up!

Why not 25K? Blapo is like a market maker on a stock with a hostile takeover, like in the movie Wallstreet. When the float dries up, it could blast through his high ask.

By the numbers... PSA pop

O'Hara Stl PB--- 344
Demmitt Stl PB- 361
Evans all backs--358

[npa589]

Blapo - I understand the price point, but conflating the idea that this is an extremely rare is disingenuous. Sure it is that gray line, but I think generally that we should hold ourselves to a higher standard than that being okay. I just posted one with the exact same feature, and a ton of the Polar Bears have the same thing.

[npa589]

The one that sold for 10k seemed to have St. Louis missing. I know there is a lot of skepticism on those cards though.

Just to note - it’s a card altered or faded to remove the red layer. It’s not a legitimate error. There’s a reason missing red cards are seen so often. It did not leave the factory that way.
