Default Really?

Nearly a million $ for the autographed card.... and this is after SS's first loss.
What if he gets hurt before the action ends how many bids would suddenly get "withdrawn?"
(a little bad luck and he's the next Mark Prior, right.)
I guess the sale price will set some records (what is the record for a card sold on eBay? How about the record for a memorabilia/autographed card? or the record for a card issued by Topps (what's the high price for a PSA 10 (or whatever) 52 Topps Mantle?

Bwahahahahahahahaha!!!!!

Prediction - in 7 years the card won't be worth $100. (Truth is that even if it is to some person, I could not care less...but I think it won't be.)

Cheers,
Blair

I get what you're saying. But i would argue even if he blows his arm out tommorow, I'd still pay 100 dollars for that card now in 7 years just to have as a conversation piece. This is beyond ridiculous now. I guess we'll see what happens and if ANY of these bidders actually pony up.....

I was sent this article.

http://www.asylum.com/2010/06/25/aut.../?sms_ss=email

I agree with most opinions.

1) Way too much $
2) People can spend $ on whatever they choose
3) It brings publicity...especially to Topps...who (as of 2010) own the rights to all MLB cards produced...Hmmmm.

So what's the latest on the million dollar Starsburg card? I saw where the seller ended the auction but didn't know if he sold it privately or it is re-listed somewhere

The seller is taking a huge risk if Strasburg suddenly starts pitching like a rookie. If the auction starts and he's 3-6 and the team feels it's best to shut him down for awhile, the card will sell for virtually nothing. With this type of card timing is everything.

That said I wish everyone luck with it. It's still a good story.

Your right, I would throw that thing back on ebay with pre-approved bidding asap! In a month this kid could be under .500

The Nats rallied late today and saved him for going under .500 although he didn't get the win. When the fans get to vote for one player on each team to be added I bet you anything Strasburg will be elected if he is one of the 5 players to be voted on. A starting pitcher with 2 wins and in the All-Star game, what a travesty that would be.
