I'd rather buy a house.

Where is the link to all of the Crosby ARP's (gratzi?) that a member had on here???
Somehow that serial number rings a bell???

I thought the same thing. There are also 2 graded versions listed with BIN lower than that price. Not sure what is happening there.

Looks to be legit, but this auction probably not so much.

Awesome patch on that card!

 

[mwdonald]

This was my old card for anyone wondering. And yes the patch is legit. The bids on the auction on the other hand...

 

[Superdoup]

I don't think these people really want to sell these cards. They're most likely hoping some idiot that would rather have a piece of cardboard then a brand new car or a down payment on a house will buy it.

 

[JohnnyDrama]

My guess is it's either an obvious shill or people bidding so they can go "I bid on that!" a la the Strasburg cards that were in the stratosphere a few years back.

if the gentleman selling this card is the same person who bought this about a year and a half ago from a private seller named mike,the reason the reserve has not been met is because he paid 35 thousand for it and i did hear he had intentions of reselling.
let us remember people that martin sports cards chop up uncut sheets to perfection,thus creating a psa 10 bobby orr rookie card that they were seeking $125 thousand for,to some people 35 thou is like 35 hundred to me or you

Crazy thing is the card still hasn't met its reserve. Hell what was the reserve 50K.

That's not that crazy for that card I know it seems like a lot but it's very hard to find three color Crosby's now only the big collectors have them and the one that is listed for 187K is the highest graded three color that exist so it arguably his best RC card out there. I know the prices seem high but your buying the best cards in the hobby. You can't buy a four color Ovechkin if you try and if one does show up it would sell for 12-16k ungraded

at that point it's no longer a hobby

Sure it is just a higher level
