"Patrick Roy Card Only 25 Exist! /2000 Upperdeck -GC RF"
item number- 270807008426

I was on ebay and just looking around for single cards of interest, Patrick Roy usually a safe bet, some good memorabilia cards out there. I have message the individual selling it for 890$. Nice card yes, 15/25, he beleives it to be the holy grail of hockey cards. Am I reading the beckett X$ book value wrong? I tried to tell him that he was not even in the right ballpark with the price to which i got basically told off. I know that asking price is up to the seller, other than $8,888,888 for an OVI card that was posted on a cheap day just to showcase to the world what he just pulled out of a pack, nice way to show it off, i agree, but this guy was serious.

Mod edit: Please don't post book values on the forums

when a product like this comes out... a lot of prices are crazy high

give it some time and you will get cards at normal prices

Its not a new product though, it is 1999-2000 MVP

Some people think they have a more valuable card than they actually do and/or the are looking for someone stupid enough to overpay for it. Once he realizes that no one will touch his asking price then he'll have to lower it. Patience would be the best advice I guess.

agree, make an offer of a reasonable price offer and see what happens...

but anytime i see stuff like this, i think of 2 things, person thinks its worth gold or they just seeing offers

I think it is worth over $100, but not close to a grand. It is a rare card though.

I could see the 100 bucks, i was just shocked at the reply i got about how i'll never find another one in my lifetime.
