Someone went Nuclear over the Corporate eBay Offices today.......

The auction was a Fluke and certainly does not represent a baseline for future listings. I expect that the winning bidder walked away with considerable bruising, the extent of which will only be known if the slab turns up again.

Sounds like what people were saying about the prices paid for large cents in the 1970s... Boy wish I could go back and make that 'mistake' today... Considering the third highest bidder was around half the final price, I don't consider the final price all that high.

 

No didn't make the statement untrue, just pointed out it was not relevant.

I'll agree with that. The two snipe bids don't indicate a baseline, but the auction does seem to indicate that the baseline is somewhere around the level of the third high bid. Because the fourth high bidder wasn't willing to go above it but the two snipe bidders were willing to. But we don't know how high they would have been willing to go if the bids had been executed in person and by increment. They might have competed with each other to the level that the auction ended at, or they might have even gone higher, or the might have both dropped out just a small amount over the level of the third high bid.

 

What does that mean???
