Quite a leap of faith for a seller with no feedback in 10 years, but assuming these pictures are unique (and I think they are), then it is very possible this could be legit.
I'd want a little more authenticity before laying 40 large on this auction though.

and also
Also, the one that sold in a Live Legendary auction, that went for around 40k and was a record high price for one (as far as I am aware), was probably the finest known. I have to agree that an average one should be in the 15k-20k range......but who knows??

Read the fine print at the bottom....Insured shipping will be extra.

Looking at the bidding history, am I the only one here who thinks that this seems VERY fishy? I doubt this is a legit sale up to this point and they are fishing for one legit buyer over 40K, but hey, what do I know!

agree
Not sure this one is passing the smell test.
Rawn- yeap, at 40k, and a reserve that is higher than that, he can't afford to pay for shipping/insurance. Deal breaker for me.

Leon - you are correct... that $40k Legendary one is the only Ty Cobb tin to ever sell (at least publicly) in that price range. I believe one in REA (maybe) sold for around $20k... Others have sold in the $10k-$15k range.

My guess is the seller plans to sell it an auction somewhere in the future and wants to increase market value....should have done it more discretely and not at an outrageous price though...
What always irks me about these is the seller says in his description "after extensive research I have decided to sell it." Really? Extensive research? Is reading about it on the Internet for a half hour extensive research? Even if he did do extensive research in order to sell it, why should I care? Last edited by Brendan; 10-01-2011 at 04:13 AM.

Not including this one (which I render no opinion on given the small size of the photos), I am aware of only two examples that do not have serious condition issues. One is the one Legendary sold, the other as I recall was sold some years earlier and went for about 50k. If in fact this one is in really good condition, then it should sell for a substantial premium over what the other lesser-conditioned ones sold for.
