I wouldn't buy it. The description doesn't give enough info. I hate postings that make the buyer look at the scans to try to see what they'll be buying, especially when the cards aren't clear.

In my opinion, there are other better options available for a $500 investment in sports cards. Also, this item still has nearly 4 days left, so it's impossible to judge if it will end up being a good deal, though I would not even toss out a starting bid on this lot.

I've seen that same lot for sale for a few months now. It isn't worth it.

The seller by singling out a few cards shows the cards he thinks is valuable and hides the not so valuable ones in other pictures. I also do not like auctions where it looks like the seller took 5 minutes to put it together and just throws it on ebay and hopes some sucker will buy it. Lazy sellers will never learn. Description is also just terrible, why not make it a little harder to know what I am getting for my money. Just my two cents

You could make money if you are willing to grind it out at local shows.

Just a thought, and I'm not trying to be a jerk, but if this truly was profitable somebody from this board would've snatched it up within seconds of you posting the link. If you think you've found a great deal, it's best to do some research and keep it to yourself.

You are right. That is why I do my listings like this (a shameless plug)

Buyer knows exactly what he/she is getting.
