One more Jeter card I will never own

The 2007 Topps Jeter/Mantle/Bush platinum card has finally sold on eBay - way below the initial starting price, but for a good chunk of change.

I've been watching this card since I saw it was listed on eBay, but I never threw up an offer. I haven't bought a card for more than $10 recently, so a couple of grand was a little beyond my asking price.

The card finally sold for $1,600.

It's a pretty card and iconic card over the last few years.


  1. I was thrilled when a pulled a regular version of this a few years back, although it was really the start of troubling trend of "error" and gimmick cards from Topps. The platinum version is just slightly out of my price range.

  2. Yikes... seems absurdly high for a non-autograph. Heck, that's absurdly high for any one card! Good for the seller, though...

  3. Think about the poor fan that was photoshopped out so they could insert Dubya.
