I messaged this guy once on another auction and asked about pricing negotiation. He got upset, 4 letter words and all.

Re: eBay auctions posted by people on crack
Well, that is a strong asking price. I think I will pass on it.
I suggest a card speculator snap it up and repost it for double the price. Easy money.
The seller has been on eBay since 2011 with 400+ transactions and a 100% rating. Now has just a few crazy items for sale. That is fishy.

Re: eBay auctions posted by people on crack
PipChick, you are not dealing with someone that is playing with a full deck....Sorry, but I couldn’t help myself.
Seriously, they are obviously inexperienced. Assuming this deck does sell for that kind of amount at auction (a big assumption on my part), it is also because the buyer knows the auction house has had the cards carefully authenticated by an expert to make sure it is not a forgery and it’s condition is properly represented. For anything that expensive, expert forgery is a real risk.

Re: eBay auctions posted by people on crack
i like this deck..not at that price though... i would pay between £50-£80
slightly off with their dates though, printed between 1880-1890.
would have been paper wrapped ,so no tuck box

I did catch someone trying to sell Gold Monarchs Playing Cards for $1500 USD but looks like it was taken down. I thought that was very optimistic alone but some of the ones I've just read here, well.. WOW!

I am not sure why this was in the Collectible Playing Cards section, but for $9,500, it can be yours with free economy shipping. Or, make an offer.

Okay, this may be legit, I don't know. A complete set of Ellusionist's decks. If you have the cash ($8,000), he has the cards. Domestic shipping is free.
