This is the most ridiculous asking price I have seen
We can only hope that they will reach these dizzying heights someday lol

I guess it's funny at first but it takes time to type out a listing although a lot of sellers don't go into any detail at all so maybe it was done in seconds. I've noticed the way you fill in fields for a listing is completely different from the form a seller filled out 15 years ago.

Piko, let me know if you could use the Millennium Falcon card from that set. I would actually be willing to make you a special deal for something less than that.

I made an offer on a sketch card that was so overpriced it would have been cheaper to fly the artist to the UK and get him to draw on a wall. The offer (which was 10% of the asking price) was declined with a message saying if I'd been collecting cards for as long as him, I would appreciate true worth.
The card was withdrawn from the site.

I do think sketch cards can bring out the eternal optimist/inner idiot of a lot of sellers where pricing is concerned!
