he asked again because the sheet is too big to scan. I'm assuming he asked Gary again because he wants to know if he can scan part of it, like the back of one corner because the middle part won't be able to fit into the scanner

Exactly elam
Different orders when it comes to scans vs pics
Remember S_cullers he gave directions on using a camera not a scanner
It's kinda tricky working with a scanner on something this big while being careful with it at the same time.
Also I said i have a feeling what areas you need me to scan but just making sure again

Crazy...send me a picture of one of your test sheets (front, back and a close up of the lower right front) and ill compare it to mine which I know is legit. Don't publish the results though cause I keep such things private.
Plus, ill be listing a different test sheet next week you've never seen before and I'm asking in advance don't email and bug me about it. I would only trade if you offered a bunch of sheets for it. It is super cool as you'll see
I think we will all look forward to that!
The guy with the Jungle told me got harassed too much by other ebayers so he pulled it to avoid trouble
bummer it was a nice sheet.pikapower99

Ok rusty I'm creating a thread about the test sheet
Too many people sending me private messages and emails regarding them.
It's funny how everyone wants full exposure on these but then
somehow we are always in the private emailings where ALOT of the discussion is not heard publicly
So I am gonna reveal Everything that was ever said to me
I am gonna reveal everything that was discussed
Also I am giving the Damn shots from now on Not you nor anyone else. Understand.
My test sheets my rules, my property my rules. My business my rules.
Everyone wants to give me orders to fulfill their expectations to silence their fears and doubts of these existence.
I know they are real. it's everyone else's damn problem to be involved with these sheets one way or another.
So I am gonna make a thread about it and once and for all we are gonna come to an ending on this.
I am giving the demands not taking them.

It was actually an error sheet but it was a wreck. Torn edges, creases and scatches all over the majority of the sheet.
Nice sheet if in better condition but not in this shape

I still like it anyway regardless of it's condition.
Anyway rusty I am not sending you a test sheet just so you can have your "person" confirm or not.
That's stupid.
Also Me and Pokepop was talking about doing that route with DMTM and I'm not doing that either because pokepop never has open communication with me.
Should the communication be stronger I might consider.
Anyway back on the fossil sheet
I can find them for the price i said $25-50
If people want to continue over paying than that does not make it it's actual value it just proves alot of people who don't do their research inflate the price because they know nothing about the sheet.
If people were smart and actually waited and took their time they could find one in fact several for the price i listed above.
Same thing with all prices and fees you want ti right away then you pay top dollar. If you can wait you can get a huge bargain because they are all too common.
So as far as I am concerned the $100+ is a luxury fee because your too damn lazy to wait a couple weeks of proper search.
So the 100+ is not the value of the sheet its a fee because your too damn lazy. In that case you deserve to get ripped off.
I will be making a youtube video addressing the fossil sheet in a matter of days.
I will educate people from where I stand so people wont have to keep making this same mistake.
Wake up people it is buyers market not sellers market.
You pay more its because you choose to not because you have to.

Actually, if you can get them for $25-$50 it means that you can find a good deal. If everyone is paying a higher price for them that is clearly what the market price is at that time. You can have your opinion on the price, just know that you're the minority.
Take for example the Rayquaza*, my friend has one, I could easily buy it off them for $5, that doesn't mean to the world the card is valued and worth only $5. Take all the cards and the price and divide them to get an average and that is a more realistic price. Now imply this technique with the Fossil sheets and find out what price you get. I can assure you now a days, it's a little more than $20-$50.
Also, please stop trying to insult everyone who buys them. We are not impressed because you can find one for a cheap price.

i'm trying to educate people not to jump the gun because they find one
If they find one in high price they need to know it's ok to let it go and wait for the enxt one to pop up.
They jump the gun too fast thinking this might be there only shot
or because they have no idea the history behind it.
Believe you me I had people regret paying these high prices because they told me themselves they had no idea what they were doing and just jumped on it so they did not risk losing it.
When people regret paying that kind of high price and the buyer is not happy how can we be ok thats the market price.
I know what I am talking about.
Keep in mind the people who buying these are most likely not seeing these post.
because everyone wants to get it for a fair price and not over pay.
Like I said if they did their research and realize it's buyers market not sellers market people can be buying these for the prices I been getting them and they will be happy.
Even smpratte said sheets are a sellers nightmare because we dont know exactly how many are in the world.
With the fossil there is more out there then we know.
It;s too common of a sheet.

your not educating them your telling them they are being stupid and dumb for paying that much for a sheet.people on ebay are pretty dumb sometimes and if they have the money for the sheets let them spend on it its their money not yours.you say you can find this thing for that amount ok thats your opinion and price everyone else has a different perspective on the price of the sheets in general people dont follow you just cause you have these sheets and so forth they do what they want to do.if there is buyers remorse then so be it we all make mistakes on things not everyone is perfect ya know.
its like saying I can find a charizard ex for 20 dollars and while everyone is paying 200+ for it doesnt mean everyone will follow me just cause of that.you have to realize after years things can go high or low.I know collectors that find rare stuff for cheaper back in the days than what they go for now.if the demand is high for the things they will go up in price.

If you can find a Fossil sheet for under $50, please let me know! I would love to see were these sheets are so I can buy some!
Otherwise...they're just not that cheap to get. Please find some legitimate sources to back up your claims. :/

Ok so this is what ill do
it might take time because I'm busy with other things.
but when i focus on fossil sheets.
I'll have the seller list it on ebay for the price we agreed on
In the ebay listing Ill have him or her put in the description reserved for me.
Would that work for your liking?
It wont happen for awhile though because i have other plans at the moment

Your word of having "your guy" list the item means nothing until it is done. Seeing as somehow you are always busy, this will likely never happen.
Nobody on here is trying to pick a fight or start an argument, we are just wanting some factual proof of your pricing, versus just your word. If you can find these sheets for as cheap as you propose, then the best thing you can do right now is show either recent receipts or transactions.
If you cannot provide this forum with either of those things, then we are to assume that you are reluctant to change the prices that were relevant roughly a decade ago, not present prices.

Prices are not a decade ago
It is very recent to this day.
It's not "my guy"
keep in mind I have dozens of seller in the past and know even more people to currently and future deal with .
The reason why I am not in a rush right now because I have other projects to work on.
Incase you don't realize fossil is not a high priority for a collection such as mine.
I have 5 and would like to end with 10. Only reason 10 is because i would like to get as many sheets in double digits as possible.
Point is my deals I usually keep private so people stay out of my business.
I suggested having the next few fossil sheets i find be listed on ebay reserved for me so this way no one clicks buy it now before i do.
Once me and the seller agree to everything we will then proceed to ebay with the said buy it now price reserved for me.
This way the sale is public and you can see for yourself.
It was a suggestion
I don't have to do this I can go back to keeping my info private.
it was something i thought you guys would like as proof.
reason why I am always busy is because I do have a life and I have other priorities within my collection besides one sheet.
Look at my list it proves I focus on diversity and strength within my collection.
If a sheet shows up that I know i need to get right away why would I pass it up for a dime a dozen fossil sheet.
I have turned down many fossil sheets to focus on base sheets.
Should I focused on fossil I prob would have had 30 fossil sheets instead of having 30 base sheets.
I know I made the right call focusing on base.
You dont know what I'm doing so don't assume "I'm always busy" means I'm wasting time being full of crap.
Look at the list of my collection
My lowest numbers are fossil and neo the most common of all sheets.
Yet most of my sheets that are big in numbers are the rarer sheets to get.
Less common vs more rare
or
more common vs less rare
What would you have done?
No one is arguing so not sure why you think that.

It still baffles me that when we are trying to discuss market price, your "precious" collection always seems to work its way into almost every one of your posts. You claim to keep your collection private, yet jump at every chance to try and show it off. Seems a bit redundant yeah? We all know you have a nice sheet collection, no need to continuously bring it up.
Just thought I would point this out, but this method would stand to mean absolutely nothing. For example, I could give a Shadowless 1st Edition Charizard to a buddy of mine for $20. I list it on eBay, but only he can buy it. This does not prove that the market price is $20, only that I foolishly sold a rare Pokemon item for pennies on the dollar.
I fear this conversation will lead to the same vicious cycle of getting nowhere as the previous two pages have shown. The only thing I am trying to get you to understand is that elam asked for market value of an uncut Fossil sheet, not a person's opinionated price. The current market value for a Fossil sheet, sits at between $100-$150; not the $25-$50 that you stated in your first post.
Just my thoughts man. If you can truly buy all these Fossil sheets for dirt cheap, just do it and re-sell them on eBay for triple the price. That way you can save up and buy more of the 'rarer' sheets. Maybe instead of bashing the sheets, and deeming them unworthy for your collection, you should look at it from a business man's perspective?

if you do it that way crazy your not showing how much the sheets SHOULD go for your just showing off that you can get the sheet at that price nothing else.it just tells people "I can get this sheet for this much so in your face" thats all.if you have all this so called info show it to people on here instead of hiding it behind a closed door.people are not telling you to show everything just show a transaction or a small proof of it to tell about the value not your personal view of certain sheets.even before I joined here i read about the topics and you always seem to hide things and not reveal anything to anyone cause your afraid something might happen to it or someone is gonna rob you of your precious sheets..you need to understand that from both views instead of your own.if someone asked how much is this card or sheet worth you will bash it and say its worth this much while the current proof value of it is going higher.put it in simple terms for you to understand no proof you go no dice.

So fine how exactly do i prove it to you
I thought the reserve on ebay would work
seing how I was buying it anyway just have them list it for me instead of privately.

Crazy, for the last time, if your saying anyone can buy one for $25-50 then please give me the sellers email and I'll buy one. Otherwise, just keep your opinion to yourself.
Is there a 'skip post' button by any chance? Because I think recently I could really do with one!
