Is it me, or is shipping a little high on this one?

Am assuming you are being facetious about the shipping, but methinks he misplaced a decimal point in the price........

Nothing has changed. I was just making a joke because it was put on stock of that era. 'Tis all.
To Jeff: That was not meant to be a rude post if you saw it, just a joke. Wanna see a joke? Look at my Choke Wagon!

I'm thinking this is a tad high for this, though it does look decent and complete [sans the second 8th series puzzle, not a big deal]. Does anyone know who this is?

Not sure, but I imagine it is John Fricke's brother.  I am pretty sure he mentioned at one of the gatherings that he had a brother that was semi into Wacky's, he just wasn't on the forum.
Still looking for Series 17

I don’t think so, John’s last name is spelled Frick (no e) and his brother Tim’s eBay ID was something like “comic crypt” (eBays seller search has been ruined so I can’t find it). Plus I don’t think he lives in MI.

"It's got crispy clean corners".

This is why I despise the option to repost your own listing from the description of another. I loathe it. I mean, this isn't the first case. This is discouraging people to do their own research and actually find out what they have. Now, this person thinks they have a $10 diecut, when it is a worthless borderless reissue.

Not a Wacky Package, but $2.7 million for a PSA 9 1978 Baseball Card?

https://www.ebay.com/itm/323465840957

I love the description:
craig reynolds baseball card 1978 graded psa mint 9. Condition is Very Good. Shipped with USPS Retail Ground.

Do they even read what they're writing?

But you earn $100 in ebay bucks.  So really you're only paying a mere $2,699,900.  Oh, plus $10 in "Economy" shipping.

Dr.Simon,

The scratch on the upper-left area must have stopped it from being a 10?

Thanks for confirming what I  thought - wasn't worth sending in even when grading prices were reasonable.

Why, yes! Especially with the dog-eared corners and lovely crease along the bottom, makes it rather unique!

He must know enough to separate the 1st and 16th cards from the lot of 2nd-12th cards. So, pretty disappointing to see someone call this "Good condition." Maybe he's blind?
