I was going to save this...

[hairyangryfella]

...but since I'm getting hammered in the PC Battle Royale I won't get to reveal it in the 2nd round...

Plus is has a cool story...

Ok, so I hate ebay right, they are useless and you can't contact them. Anyways, I was on the phone to them the only time I bothered to call them, and while on the phone I complained about the lack of ability to contact them. Their site says you can message or live chat to them.
Well, they gave me an email address (no response from it) and also said that you can only live chat if there is a listing error/issue with something you have.
So, I decided to do a dummy listing, picking out my Birdman logoman for it (and figured the attention couldn't hurt - listed it for $850BIN or BO). Well, I still couldn't live chat, but overnight I'd received a couple of offers... one of $650, one of $200. However by the time I got up the first offer guy must have panicked about the other offer and hit the BIN! The beauty of it was, I only paid $150 plus SBF fee for the card in the first place!
Hell of a profit huh...

So, basically, by selling that card I was able to buy this one. Yes, I overpaid on it, but it's beautiful.... and basically only cost me $150 in a round-about sort of way..!

You lucky bastard !

Awesome luck with selling that Birdman; I'd say a great trade In ... Awesome card G !

Now hopefully Lebron can stop choking In big games and help the value of that card out for you !

Wow so that's the story of the Birdman. Nice card, except half of it is LeBron haha. I would still love a Birdman Logo though too.

Absolute gold...

 

[A1CardsandGaming]

congrats on the amazing price but am I the only one confused as to why someone would pay that much for a birdman. Apart from being a try hard Rodman, what has he actually done on a basketball court ?

 

[aussie2al]

Nice going mate,Thats a ripper card.

 

[skip20]

Birdman or LBJ and Jordan? Hmm, tough decision...............NOT! Ripping deal, guess it wouldn't have happened without ebay's incompetence?! How ironic!

 

[Verse1]

Atleast it offset some of the cost of the damaged Wilt. Nice sale and buy

One of my fave set designs, I ended up going for the non auto'ed version and it's awesome in hand. Full of a great combination of players etc etc

Well done indeed!
