Whoops! I accidentally deleted your thread, Tommy C. Sorry about that. Feel free to get the discussion going again by posting below.
Also, and to answer the further discussion that was also posted in that that thread, yes...we have allowed links in the past when something is quite rare, unusual, absurd, etc. so long as the item is not to your own item.
Thanks, Harris. Yes, I meant no harm. It certainly is a rare item (less than 100 made, and before the discussion last year no one had ever seen one) It definitely is not my auction. Plus with an asking price of $ 1200 I don't think anyone is going to bid !

I have the single cards of Mulder, Scully and Skinner, but have never seen the one of the Cigarette Man even after 24 years of searching. Have only seen his card on the sheet

At the show, I saw them in pretty equal quantities. By the end of it, I had 3 sets and a couple of singles, selling them all a few years later. I got at least $30 each.
Years later, I saw a Scully for sale at $15 and I picked that up.

I noticed recently a scratched off Skinner card sold on ebay for $ 10 or 15. That seems to be the most common and least desirable one. One which was not scratched off would have gone for more

Yes, one went for $15.99 on June 5. I don't think it's more common/least desirable. It's probably just that the seller was aware that it wouldn't go for as much since the scratch-off box had been scratched off - went for a quick sale. Scratched-off cards littered the floor near the registration booth. I should have scooped up a pile.
