They're asking for ten bucks. None of them have been sold. And they probably won't ever be sold at that price.

Even if they were, the value for a CGC 10 would be about $140. As it stands, the value is about $1.40. That $1400 is off by decimal points no matter how you look at it.BloodShot wrote:I'm sure they areDaniel Jackson wrote:At least the books are in "Mint" condition...FormerReader wrote:I'm assuming he thinks it is a platinum?

Last year, I was looking at getting some antlers for my son on eBay, and searching "deer rack" resulted in some amazing marketing attempts to sell antlers.
