I mean, for $3000, I could fly to Chicago, stay in a five-star hotel, spend four days there in the Art Institute looking at Impressionist and post-Impressionist masterpieces, eat at the best restaurants -- and still have like $200 left over to go to a Cubs or a Sox game in the best seats available.Tony L.https://www.blogger.com/profile/01349226671097456632noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5373371228120150408.post-84422270597505477022014-07-16T22:36:52.940-07:002014-07-16T22:36:52.940-07:00Just shows how ridiculous the trading card world a...Just shows how ridiculous the trading card world and Ebay has become. Some of the "experts" in the Ebay trading card group (used to be their forum boards but all the specific category groups were moved to the "groups" in a recent Ebay update/"upgrade") would say that the seller is just "parking" or "archiving" the card with the super high price with no intent to actually sell it. I don't really subscribe to that way of thinking though. Lots of people think they can still make tons of money on Ebay, well if you have the right item at the right time you can, but for the most part the "get rich quick by selling on Ebay" days are over.<br />CaptKirk42https://www.blogger.com/profile/16039278539984069944noreply@blogger.com
