lebron 9.5 exquiz hits ebay....did we miss a steal?

[lietuvalabas]

was doing my daily bin steal search and found this with a 19k bin. but is the patch suspect? in my eyes it looks like the rubber paint screen printing, but I dunno who would have bid and taken away the bin at 19k.

edit: I looked at other that have sold and they seem to be the same type of material....ugg I wish I had the money. but you know if you won that card at 19k some troll would have undercut ya.

Guy has 8 negatives. Guy mainly sells used video games. Guy includes multiple pics of everything else in his listings, but only a single, non-tagged, LBJ image that's clearly from a scanner while all of his other shots are take against some wooden table/counter.

But yeah, fire away for 19k.

I live in a neighboring town to this guy. Not likely anyone there has that card.

I asked for more pictures and he had already stepped out of the office for the day and will be out of town for the weekend. I was so close to pulling the trigger. I was also the one who bid to kill the BIN.

[The Closer]

looks like someone else hit it though

yeah I sure as hell don't have $19,000. but my old boss/friend always told me if I ever found something worthwhile that he'd front the money, and he sure does have it.

It's a poorish town but also I just mean our LCS never has anything high end and our local show never has anything high end. Just seems very unlikely this guy would have that card at that price without better scans on the eve of game 7 after Lebron has finally performed up to expectations the last 2 games.

None of it makes sense.

Jesus H guys, it took 30 seconds to drill down to this article via Google images. Scroll to the bottom.

yeah I see the one in the scan there, whats the question though, who owns it?

edit: ok thanks for clarification.

[6celtics33]

and Bill is a member on here I think. Now if he was selling it. I'd believe that.

Bill owns it, not this jack wagon in the eBay listing.

yep I gotcha, thanks for finding that man. I can sleep tonight now haha. that woulda bugged me if that one went by.

[The Closer]

im glad my instincts held me back!

[6celtics33]

Guys nobody that has it will put that up for $19,000 on the eve of game 7. Or anytime for that matter but especially not with the hype right now. Rest easy with that.

that's true, but some people don't do their research or know how to price higher end stuff. just last year I bought one of kobes rarest exquisite autos for $650...ya never know.

[backtoreality]

Hey all - this is a scam. I still have this card in my possession and did not authorize this listing. I'm not sure who this seller is.

It is a bummer that there are some real losers in our hobby.

[Airforce777]

That sellers name sounds familiar, something tells me this is not his first scam attempt

[housecore]

I think you're right about this not being his first scam attempt...
im pretty sure someone made a thread about ebay username that
had funzbuyz in it...or it was something very similar...
If im not mistaken i think it was a shaq card he tried to scam someone
with and he ended up making a username on here to defend himself....
im pretty sure this is the same person...he was selling videogames also...

[tristan20]

You missed a steal alright, someone stealing your money.

Not sure why ebay allows this scumbag to still be selling

[Onlythefinest]

I was the one to hit the buy it now, knowing this couldn't be real. He can't provide a picture and wants to meet up in person in St. Louis because he doesn't live in Kentucky anymore. Scumbag looking to rip somebody off.

[thor_rider08]

dbag #@#@#@#@ listed it again
.99 to start let em rip 24 hours
