The Odd Couple

[hederman]

Don't give me that look, I know I had a mail post a couple of days ago, but this arrived yesterday.



In my opinion, one of the best player combinations ever put on a card.

And I feel I have to share the auction listing as a great example of how NOT to sell on Ebay. It's completely abysmal; one of the worst I've seen.

Thanks for looking and I promise a bit longer until the next one.

I love it when the listings miss all the key words. Makes for some great prices.

Hm this is the first time i see this card .I collect Alex Yashin dont have this one in my collection it is a nice card but I am not sure if I pay more then 50 dollars for this one it is /10 jsy/au combination but stickers ..anyway it is very interesting card no doubt about it .Yashin was traded to Isles from Otawa and draft pick which they get they use to pick Spezza 2nd overall I think .....

Great addition to your collection, but how on earth did you find that auction?

 

[PenaltyMan]

Actually I think that title is optimal - the moment anyone sees Yashin on a card they ignore it so that was the best thing to do.

That was one card I NEVER saw when I was collecting Spezza. I had every tough card imaginable, even his 01/02 UD Young Gun, but I never came across the dual auto with Yashin. Nice grab....!

Thanks for all the comments everyone.

you stole it at that price.

Really? I thought it was a fair price. I only picked it up because I'm a Sens fan and, well, the two players are a big part of that teams history.

Great addition to your collection, but how on earth did you find that auction?

Same way I start all my eBay searches. A glance over the first few pages of all 500,000+ hockey cards listed. This one was ending in about 30 seconds so it was on the first line. There was a lot of luck involved in this pickup.

Does the card back mention if they used pistols or rapiers?:devil:

 

[JTMcCool]

Those cards are extremely difficult to find. Incredible steal! Well done!

So you got it ,If I had more money on me at the time I would have bid much higher.
