What auction house?
Very unethical and probable hidden reserve

It was NOT SportscardLink and they told me if I went one more bid, I would get the card.

In my opinion...

You shouldn't even start a thread like this without going all in with the information.

And, the title should be "Disturbing..." not "Interesting..."

I was asking if anyone has ever heard of this before. Its not easy to figure out which auction it was. It was not ebay or Sportscardlink. It was a Joe Jackson card and I was told if I made one more bid, the card would be mine. I now believe there was probably a hidden reserve because how would they know that I wouldnt have gotten outbid.

Steve,

I think you are fine. I have never had any problems with SportsCard Link Auctions. They are referring to another auction house...coincidentally the two auctions ended at the same time.

Yeah, quick FYI, "game worn jersey" may simply mean that Steve Jensen wore that jersey to a game.

Steven, I didn't interpret that he was saying or insinuating anything against Sportslink. I think he was just weeding out active auctions.

Sportscardlink is not the auction house in question. Sportscardlink is run by Chris Porter whom I have known for years and believe he runs an honest business. I have only had the best dealings with Chris.

Doesn't Josh Nathanson run Sportscardlink? Josh used to live just a few blocks from me, but I'm wondering if he left Brooklyn and moved to Maine.

Totally different situation. My sportslink win from last night is already in the mail.

But I just got a call that a few hours after I paid with CC, about 2k in transactions went on my CC for UK online shops and about 4 others declined. First time I used my CC online in a while.

I don't know Josh Nathanson, but I believe Chris was hired last year to run the card side of it. Isn't there a related comic division?
