I haven't looked at 1980's Topps Baseball sets in a long time but $96.00 for this?

With 19 bids it looks like someone did not want to " lose". I would have bought VROOMEDs hand colated set for $40.00. :)

Yeah waaaaaaaay too much for that one

Thanks for the plug, Joe. Still have the 2 available. But when I was pricing the sets, I wasn't looking at current bidding. Most were in the $45-$50-ish range, and that's why I went with $40 for my price here.

Id be more than happy to sell anyone on here an '84 Topps set for $96!

Same seller, ending in 6 days an 88 Topps set with a very enticing $19.99 starting bid.  Possibly combine ship with the bee gees live double LP.

One of the bidders has 81% activity with this seller, that seems suspicious. Looks like at least 1 person got caught up in the bidding and was egged on by possible schill bidding.

Nice observation Corky..Be interesting to see what the 1988 Topps set sells for that this seller has...

I'm thinking someone read "Complete Set Direct From Dealer Mint Condition" and thought it was something special..

More than likely just a hand collated set in an 800 count box..

Some people have more money than smarts...

I've seen Mattinglys fetching big money lately. This seems pretty nutty when you don't even have a picture of the best card in the set

Yeah, but other than the Mattingly rookie, I can't even think of too many other premium rookie cards in that set.  Strawberry(?) might be the second best RC there...
