Just wondered if anyone has an opinion on ebay item 120312854483 and the price it sold for. (Sorry, not worked out how to add pic yet). I collect and have many of these (a lot from 1950's solitaire sets). I guess the oxblood is the one I call orange.

Am I missing something?

here's the Auction Link

i'm surprised at the final bid - i would've guessed it would end at half that (tops)

even more strange, those went for about 5x the price of this auction from the same seller

Maybe just "Newbie Bidders".......???

Pretty "YOUNG" bidder history......FWIW

I think that it's probably as Rick said..........an enthusiastic "newbie" bidding the price up or perhaps when they saw the description said "Oxblood", they thought it was worth a lot (although I don't see any Oxblood in any of these).


$43.11 for this group of 5/8".


$3.43 for this pair of 17-18mm.
