[QUOTE="brg5658, post: 1264900, member: 29751"]I agree. The market set its true maximum value at around $1000 in a true eBay auction. And even that amount is likely higher than it's really "worth" given that it had a reserve and part of the upping of bids was in a feeble attempt to bust through the Reserve Price. The coin sold initially for around $399. The coin sold again 1 week later for $1500 Buy It Now (non-auction) when there was also a "Make Offer" button that was not used. I happen to know that the dealer of this sale (captivating coins) almost always takes 50% of his BIN price, so it could have been had for around $800 or so. The coin is listed again as an auction, and the auction ends without meeting the reserve at over $1000. The coin is now listed for BUY IT NOW at $1501. ALL of this commotion in less than 4 weeks...this smells odd to me. There is a 1941-D PCGS MS67FS listed for $198 Buy it now on the BAY right now. Anyone who alternatively pays sky money for a little colorful tarnish has got a screw loose in my opinion! :eek: To each his/her own I guess....[/QUOTE]
