So big, in fact. It was featured on yahoo.com below

http://sports.yahoo.com/mlb/blog/big_league_stew/post/The-Stephen-Strasburg-baseball-card-that-costs-a?urn=mlb,243549

here is the ebay auction if a TCC member wants to win the prize.

As many of you know, he is very hyped up to be the next great one, and i think it will come true. But that much?! I dunno. Although this is a good thing for card collecting geeks like us, we do get recognition

I think theres already 2 other threads about this, lol. Its drawing a lot of attention.

**If you were aiming towards that its so big yahoo is even talking about it then I guess its different.

Still shaking my head! And if you look really close at it, it looks like it was cut crappy! Anyone else see that? Little fuzzy's on it?

I think this is crazy along with the nut whos gonna pay the 10-20k.. LMAO


I thought I was spending alot on my Manning rcs and or autos. I was thinking spending @round $300 was a ton, boy I must still be in the minors.

Paying that much is for a card is insane, but possibly buying a box of 06 bowman to chase the Longo Super seems at least plausible, kinda puts it in the back of my mind now. LMAO

i'm not sure actually, the link doesn't work anymore

Posted by: whatwild May 29 2010, 05:06 PM

I dont collect baseball and in 06 I bought a box of Bowman and it had chromes in it

I was talking about the longo card anyways

Posted by: Hallsgator May 29 2010, 07:03 PM

Longoria is in 06 BDP.

Posted by: whatwild May 29 2010, 07:32 PM

K thanks I will buy a Box while on my travels this month and let you guys know what I get.

I know whatever I do get all will be FS/FT because I dont collect Baseball just a heads up.

Assuming buyer pays, it has sold for $16,403.

funny he only has it in a toploader, at least put a screwdown on it...

Posted by: Lew47 Jun 4 2010, 08:40 AM

Alot of collectors don't keep high end cards in screwdowns because toploaders are safer.

check out e-bay item 200485213281.that has to be some kind of joke.

Posted by: Gforce083 Jun 24 2010, 09:24 PM

yup....it's not a good feeling when you take that 86 fleer Jordan RC out of your screwdown and the card rips in half because it became affixed to plastic.

I was thinking the same thing. Is it for real?!?

wow!!! it seems fake but look how many bid retractions there are, its making it look more legit

Posted by: Icrackwax Jun 26 2010, 09:18 PM

Yeah, it went down $500,000 in the past day due to the pre-approved bid system that got set up.
