The seller and bidders have a combined feedback of...

Yup, you guessed it. Zero.

Wow a $5500 starting price and shipping isnt even free? Man what a cheapskate. Although he is only charging $2.07 to ship all that so at least the shipping was a discounted rate

The final price was $9,600. Beautiful. I think I'll contact the buyer and see if he wants to give me $2,000 for my 2010 Topps base collection. There's more than 1,000 unsorted cards there!

Just wow.

Is that really shilling when there are no actual bidders interested in this? I wonder how many of these sales like this where worthless cards are bought and sold by people with zero history are actually sales for something else with the cards as a guise?

I think you may be on to something..
"your honor, my client transferred the $9,600 for the purchase of rare vintage baseball cards and memorabilia. it had nothing to do with the alleged narcotics found in his vehicle"

I have never understood why it is ok to charge shipping on a small item but not a big one. What is the magical price point to where one should offer free shipping? That just doesn't make sense to me. I understand complaining about excessive shipping, but come on. Do you complain when eating a peach because the outside is too fuzy?

lol I was just kidding around with my post. I really dont care if someone offers free shipping or not on a legitimate expensive item. Just pointing out on top of the price of the auction that even the shipping was a joke
