Scammers are gonna scam.  It's the same deal as all the Billy Ripken censored FF cards that are listed as "rare errors".  Or all the * parallels that are listed the same way lol.  I think they must just be trying to scam some unsuspecting people out of their money.  Unfortunately there are always issues like that in any hobby where a large percentage of its fans are older or not technologically inclined and are potentially unaware of these kinds of scams.

Its like the story of the 1990 Juan Uribe card that that guy wanted $1,000,000 for. Also I wouldn't want this variant. The yellow egg yolk variant is by far the rarest. 1/1!

Well there are a few scratches on the surface..... but the wife still says it's a  "NO !!!! " Not getting it for my B-day present !

Is the yolk from an egg that Frank Thomas himself was eating? That would increase the value tenfold.

Back when I was a kid, I opened a pack of these from one of those repack boxes.  Inside was a Grand Slam insert of Jeff Bagwell.  I remember looking at the package, and the odds of pulling one were really high if I remember.  I kept that card for a while in my "nice cards" simply because of the odds, even though it had the Denny's logo on it.  I don't have that card any more, but this at least brought back some memories.  

I don't even think this card is one of those Grand Slam versions.  

Edit:  Just looked at the packaging here, the odds weren't as high as I remembered.  Or at least the odds seemed higher to me as a kid.
