Ronda Rousey auction ends at $10,103
By Matt Bible | Beckett Sports Card Monthly Analyst
Apparently, $10,000 isn’t a stretch at all.
Beckett.com reported on Friday that a 2012 Topps Finest Red Refractor Autograph 1/1 of Ronda Rousey was up for auction on eBay. The auction was at $5,900 after 56 bids.
Well, the auction has concluded and the card has sold. The final number is staggering and has most likely set a record for autographed UFC cards if it is paid for — $10,103.
one word… WHY?
Usually when I Invest in cards, I dream of selling them one day for this much. I dont see anyone in the next 5 – 15 years shelling out 6500 plus for this card. I would sure hope the buyer would want to make at least 500 dollars on a 6k investment.
This might not just be a UFC fan but someone who is also into Hollywood autos as well depending how her career goes.
She does have a really sharp autograph. It’s much better than you usually see from athletes – Jim Gantner being the obvious exception.
her signature is pretty common, i think the buyer overpaid by $10,003. beckett, find out who bought it and why he spent so much for it.
( whattheheck )…… Where does the $6K come from ?? I thought the final price was a little over $10K, did I miss something ???
Actually her auto is generally a mess of illegible loops. Seems the first couple she signed for this set (this 1/1 and the two plates the same seller has on eBay) were slow and deliberate. Everything else is barely recognisable next to these cards – IP, on-card and sticker.
Why would anyone pay that much for an item by Rhonda Rousey? That card will never be worth that much, especially after she loses.
Her sports bra sold today on eBay for $19,150 shipped. There will be many more bras. Makes the 1/1 look like a bargin.
