Confused - Okay, this seller who has only 19 feedbacks and yellow star is selling a GSP Round 1 Card Error for $5,000 yes, $5k. 1st of all why would any error card be worth $5,000 and 2nd would you look at prior listings or similar cards or maybe even the highest sold card of Round 1 or GSP to get your value? Wouldnt you think a card with an actual signature would be worth more than one without it? I guess not in this persons case!
 
Shocked - Now I know I just read a post about these Round 1 Error cards by Dr. Palasteines or someone very similar to that (Spell Check Please). He had like 10-15 of those cards I thought and could be worth $10-$20.00 MAYBE. This persons wants $5,000 "Buy it Now" or "Best Offer". This person needs a reality check and I thought it was funny when I saw it. Here it is:

yeah, seeing that you can buy one with a sig for $1000 and remove the sticker, I can't see how this would be worth more than an auto'd one. He had this up for 4K many times. If someone buys this card for anywhere near that money tell the buyer I have some ocean front property in Vermont for sale cheap

5k for a GSP auto without the GSP auto... i laughed when i first seen this the other day.  The value on the card is the auto, cant see it being worth much more.  Personally, i would take and write a letter to topps and tell them your GSP Red auto never got signed.....blah blah blah and they usually make up for it in a big way.  The card companies have good customer service

No way anyone even bids half of the asking price. Its too bad the seller is to dumb or greedy to call topps CS and complain.

Al, you said 5 bills! I'm talking and this person is talking 50 Bills!! A little bit different that 5 Bills... Maybe someone would be stupid and slap 5 bills down on a non-auto but, 50 bills...
 
I offered $2.00 last night on it LOL... he/she countered my $2.00 for: $4,998.00 NO JOKING!!! LMAO
 
Good luck to this person but, I think if he/she got $100 they'd be doing good on it! They obviously have no clue what they are doing because they have only 19 feedbacks total... They'll learn the value of cards soon hopefully...

There used to be two of these for sale at the same time.   One guy had his for $517 or something like that, and the other guy had $4002 and kept saying "if GSP beats Alves, I'll push the money or something to that extent.      The one for $517 sat there forever and never sold.   The $4002 one just got laughed at like this one. 

I think GSP has A D D when it comes to having to sign so many Autos for Topps and just skipped a whole row or something.   Either that, or the guy removed the auto and is trying to sell it as if it's a Red.   

It'll never sell.   One to many decimal places.

There is such a thing as a 1,000 dollar bill. There are about 150,000 of them and I wish I had a bunch of them for Round 4

well i would say it is worth less without the auto.....  then you have the hassle of getting it auto'd... error cards generally don't hold value long term unless it is an actual variation....

if you really made a big deal of it to Topps, you'd probably get 3 or 4 other cards along with this one fixed!    I know guys who have phoned up Topps and asked where their redemption was even though they didn't have one, and then made a stink because topps lost it... Topps always sends them free cards in addition to their lost one.

i just noticed that this asshat says that GSP is holding "multiple belts", am I missing something? 

maybe he means a brown leather belt, a black one, maybe a few others to match some of his other suits....

well gsp was the canadian TKO welterweight champ before he came to the ufc maybe thats what he's talking about but ive messaged this dude for the past few days and no matter what you say to him he gets on the defensive thinking that you're accusing him of tampering with the sticker he's just one of those guys that when you talk with him you're just like ''whaaa' to his responses surely he knows by now that price is a bit too much

It all comes down to him just having to accept the fact that... HE'S JUST NUTSOID!!! All he's going to keep doing is spending on fees what the card is actually worth which is pennies until he gets it fixed by Topps or, puts the blue sticker back on it!

He'd be better off putting someone else's auto signature sticker on that card, it would be worth more right there just having an auto there. I would claim to Topps it was supposed to be a Red Auto and he got shafted, they would probably send you some new stuff coming out like the carwin auto's and maybe even get you another GSP blue auto. Doesnt it say whether or not its an official/authentic Red or Blue auto on the back of those cards? Im not sure I cant remeber... If it doesnt then yea, try and get a RED one even though there probably isnt any but, at least try to get its value some way instead of claiming the card is some special big deal & wasting your time while everyone is laughing at you because the card isnt worth the time the fighter even spent writing the signature... Who knows, GSP's card stack he was signing that day may have had a blank one because it stuck to the back of another card, then the person at Topps just stuck it in the printing stack and it popped up in a pack as a base card...
 
Oh well keep deaming dream weaver!! I... Confused
