Well, we all have our holy grail we are on the outlook for. Looks like someone found theirs.

LOL!! This guy is nuts. Maybe I should pick them up for spare parts...ya never know when I'll be needing a border. And, they DO have sharp corners. What I don't use for spare parts, I'll have graded.

Wow.

Yep, get a complete set of PSA 0's, and record them on the PSA registry...

Agree. It should be moved at least two spaces to the left.

I think that everyone is missing the significance of this rare find ~ This sheet clearly shows which three titles were pulled from the 1st Series Reissue set (which obviously makes those three stickers VHTF and valuable!)

(Image removed from quote.)

I actually find that kind of interesting. It looks like the diecut is in the right place on the card but the image is shifted way off to the right. Unless this is actually a re-stick, it would imply that there could have been a whole sheet printed like that.

Kind of reminds of this diecut error I used to have. I always have wondered if there are other diecuts out there from the same sheet?

bigtomi · « **Reply #1623 on:** March 17, 2015, 07:03:57 PM »

OK, I didn't know that Stevie Wonder had a part time job at PSA...

Does this really look like it should earn a PSA 6? Between the corners and staining, really? or am I outta line here?

I would agree Tom. And to think, If it got a 6 ,that means at least 2 different people thought so.

Not sure if this seller is nuts, wanting 5-6K for this auction. Even with the two big boys, their condition is not very good. But I don't know what their value is...

I like the line in the description, "They may or may not all have some wear from use or storage."

That lot is worth $2400 - $2800 IMHO

Yes, the two biggies are here, but not so good condition. All of them have lousy corners, off center, creases, wear, etc. When I looked it over, I thought, at best, $2000 for it all. And even that might be generous...

bigtomi · « **Reply #1628 on:** March 30, 2015, 03:44:52 PM »

This looks overpriced to me, also. It's not a full set, only has the "easy" part of the puzzle, and condition is not so great for what you usually find these in...though the description calls them "high grade". Um, NOT.

Even in NM with full puzzle, 16th should be $1500 tops.

I asked, and the Jolly Mean is #43. That one looks like it was folded in half.

Probably to cover the insurance he thinks it'll need since it'll sell for $5K or more. Yeah...OK. LOL

The die cut shipping is free. It's the 16th set that has $30 shipping.

Just remember on the die cut set, ASK QUESTIONS BEFORE YOU BID, NOT AFTER YOU BID OR WIN. PLEASE ASK BEFORE YOU BID, NOT AFTER YOU BID OR WIN. Also, Your shipping charges will be discounted if you win more than one of my auctions. No local pick-ups, everyone pays shipping charges.

I'm not sure how much more he can discount free shipping -- every one of his listings has free shipping. Maybe he'll throw in the Donny & Marie necklaces (4) different heart & horn etc. 1977 MIB. Oh darn, he can't, they've already got 4 bids on them -- albeit all by the same person. I guess they really want those Donny & Marie necklaces.

I did read his description, it does say he uses stock photos. If he ships you a normal one he is totally legal. (Dickish move but legal)

looks like someone did a nice job of putting a Ratz sticker on top of a #32 Weakies to me.
border blackness inside vs outside the die-cut line don't match

possibly a real borderless Ratz was peeled down to a thin layer and glued on? or else a photo copy? colors aren't as vibrant as a Flashback

I think you're right...and it looks like a legit copy of the sticker. (Patrick: It doesn't have a Weakies die cut shape, neither front nor back.) How strange! The die-cut seems ok. Maybe there was a version of the sheet with an outline error (like they were going to print a Weakies in the spot, but still were printing Ratz)?

The worst part of this find: THERE'S A RATZ VARIATION! ARGH!!!

I still don't think so

#32 Weakies has a Ratz die-cut, not a Weakies die-cut, despite having a Weakies black border

(Image removed from quote.)

That's what bothered me as well. I had been considering making an offer, but something just seemed off, and that was what was nagging at the back of my head. Think I'll stick with my punched Ratz for now.
