Another one of those comical eBay listings...I'm not quite sure how to report bad listings on eBay as I don't use it much. Maybe someone else can?

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Jose-Uribe-Giants-Fleer-1990-Baseball-Card-VERY-RARE/322570611827?_trkparms=aid%3D777001%26algo%3DDISCO.FEED%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D20160801204525%26meid%3Da5007415b6884383ae6cc76b808c3604%26pid%3D100651%26rk%3D1%26rkt%3D1%26&_trksid=p2481888.c100651.m4497&_trkparms=pageci%253A6fd67feb-7e19-11e7-a8d3-74dbd180672f%257Cparentrq%253Ace379c6515d0a866eb247091fffa88d5%257Ciid%253A1

He has an identical card listed, but without the free shipping. Spend that much and get it shipped for $6.87.

-------------------------------

I'll never quit collecting entirely, but I am downsizing. Check out my COMC store and help me thin out what I don't want so I can buy cards that I do want. See something you like? Send me a message on here, and we can knock the price down quite a bit. I'll even take a bit of a loss if it means getting you a card you really want.

I feel like you would still be overpaying

Unfortunately, the lowest you casn offer someone on a BIN or BO on ebay is 99 cents - which for this card is 98 cents too much. ------------------------------- -- Dan -- Note: Please see my profile for more info regarding trading (section updated 3/4/2024). I have added a large portion of my inventory to the site, and currently have trading turned on (details are in my profile).

One of my uncles bought another uncle a box of 1990 Fleer baseball this week. I told my Mom (their sister) it was the worst baseball card set ever (I hate the cardboard). Now I see they're rare and valuable. I wonder how many Uribes were in that box. Actually...I wonder if the seller is my uncle!

-------------------------------

I'm going to reevaluate how I collect after the new year. It's just getting way too expensive for the new stuff. Sometimes I just want to buy a pack, not a whole box or even blaster.

I also reported it as a fraudulent listing. It would be nice if ebay let you tell them exactly WHY it is a false listing!

-------------------------------

NO PWE's EVER!!! PLZ PM me 1st before sending any offer. ONLY selling cards as of March 2024. No trades or purchases right now.

Might be exactly what he wants. To trick some smartass into offering 99-cents for a 1-cent card. ranfordfan wrote: Should I offer him a buck??? =D ------------------------------- *Someday my cards may double in value and then be worth half of what I paid for them.*

I'm not sure if that really needs reporting. I think someone is just having a laugh.
