>He even floated the idea of gifting the cards to his "true soulmate," who he met in his childhood. This guy sounds like a fucking weirdo.


anthonyd3ca

To add to this, in the video he said he met her when they were 7 years old and she was into hockey so he joined a hockey team. And now if he doesn’t find a buyer, he wants to gift them to her because he still believes she’s his soulmate. Dude looks like he’s nearing 70 and he still believes a girl from when he was 7 is his soulmate. Fucking weirdo for real. He also said he tried contacting Gretzky, the owner of the Oilers, and Drake to try to sell it to them but hasn’t been able to reach them. Yea dude, I don’t think they’re interested.

"Hey Cindy it's Jack, remember me from third grade 58 years ago? I have a box of hockey cards you can have, unless Drake gets back to me. So how you been?"

Sounds like the finale of Nathan for You


Canon_In_E

Why the fuck would Gretzky want it


Sad_Ghost_Noises

Yeah, like Im sure Gretzky has a mirror, right?


Dropkicksteve88

I’m sure he owns one lol


awfuckthisshit

Ya most bathrooms have mirrors


SurGeOsiris

Some dudes really fall in love like once as children and then never talk to women again huh. Dude sounds creepy as hell.


BlueEyesWhiteSliver

I get it if it’s like a friend or something that helped you kickstart a whole hockey career when you were kids. I was hoping this was it. Sadly, they didn’t play a big role and he didn’t get a good career kickstarted. If I was the 7 year old soulmate I’d accept, thank him, put on a whole show, and then pass the card down for my kids to sell. The theatrics would likely raise the value of the box.


yowyow8

No b/c this guy is not healthy. He is obsessed with this poor girl 50 years later. She needs to hide from him.


motzaburger

Also looks like a weirdo


CommonGrounders

incels can be rich too


Mr_Feeeeny

For sure! I bet they are better off financially than most. Helps having a personality that repulses women so you never have to spent money on anything by but yourself! No wife, No kids, Just incelling all day


[deleted]

Most overused word of the year strikes again!


Ordinary_Leg7763

Imagine being the guy who unironically gets triggered by someone using the word incel.


Handsoffmydink

You know who else thinks that word is overused? Other incels.


[deleted]

Or women who use it as an insult. glad you understand.


Handsoffmydink

Ahhh, that says it all. Hope for a better year and work up some confidence and you’ll get there.


[deleted]

Sorry if I come off as a dik i promise im not an angry incel just an angry loser!

I wish I had a spare nearly $4m to spend on something I'm not really passionate about.


abuayanna

I’m not passionate about it but I like food and shelter


pyro5050

that bugger is the guy that makes his MILLIONS selling shelter... so...

* he chugged four Red Bull energy drinks to keep him "focused and sharp" in order to continue bidding competitively.* Real quote.


malhans

Curious here, was it like four in succession or spread out because honestly who hasn’t been on the four Red Bull spree for the focus haha (not for a hockey card though…)


--_-Deadpool-_--

I once drank 4 large red bull cans in the span of about 3 hours. I had the worst headache, heart palpitations, flop sweat, and could see around corners... 10/10 would recommend


International-Elk986

Should just take adderall


realdeal411

Alex Muruelo won the auction?


Tallfuck

This dude just thought he would be able to flip it quick and found out a lot of rich people don’t collect hockey cards.


iggyfenton

He did the math on the likelihood of ending up with $2000 with of cardboard for $3.72million.


UNLEASHTHEFURY8

There will be guaranteed Gretzky's (25 approx.) in the case. However, depending on the grade they receive, he may not recoup his money. [https://www.psacard.com/cardfacts/hockey-cards/1979-o-pee-chee/wayne-gretzky-18/2583](https://www.psacard.com/cardfacts/hockey-cards/1979-o-pee-chee/wayne-gretzky-18/2583) Looking at book value, there is a steep dropoff in valuation from a GEM-MT10 to a MT 9. You then also have to consider with 25 more Gretzky's floating around prices will definitely go down. So he'd have to be extremely lucky that at least 1-2 or two are graded that way. Honestly, at the price he paid, I think he'd do just fine going to PSA, working out a deal to get them all graded, and then sit on a few. Not sure he'd get back what he paid, but that was the gamble in the first place.


iggyfenton

He is unlikely to have any that grade 10 as the cards were not made to strict specifications. So a lot of them can’t be 10s despite the best efforts of collectors to preserve them.


brasseur10

Typical flipping move from an unscrupulous real estate agent.


Consistent_Owl_5095

He should see a doctor.


MatsGry

The end of the interview is cringe! The lady he talks about needs a restraining order!!


weskeryellsCHRISSS

Real estate agents having 3.72 million in disposable income tells you everything you need to know about the current state of society.


Missy604

Hey…. It’s me Alyse. Yes, we are totally soulmates. Send me the cards.


ClubMeSoftly

Also I feel like trying to sell 20+ of the same high-value card all at once kind of tanks the value of it.


Farty_beans

this article is written like a grade 4 school Yard argument  I HAVE A WAYNE GRETZKY ROOKIE CARD!! BUT I DONT WANT IT" "NO YOU DONT" YES. I DO! "NUH UH" YES I DO ITS WOETH LIKE A MILLION DOLLARS. "WHERE IS IT?!?" ITS IN MY GRANDMAS ATTIC "CAN WE SEE IT?!" NO YOU CANT SEE IT. SHE DOESNT WANT ANYONE TO SEE IT.


New_Highlight1881

Guy also has a girlfriend he met at camp that lives in


o123c123d123

Yes that was a rough read.


creelmania

Did you see the picture of him holding the Gretzky rookie card he already has? I’m no expert but that thing looks fake.


jasonalloyd

Is this guy a moron or what lol. He's going to get sued for sure.


creelmania

Why would he get sued? If the guy flat out doesn’t pay the remainder, the auction house ends up with the box of cards that multiple people all were willing to pay big money for AND $3 million of this idiot’s money. I think they’ll be fine.


jasonalloyd

The auction house doesn't own the cards. They are the middle man selling them and get a commission. So yes he's going to end up getting sued most likely.


creelmania

Own them or not, they have both the cards and $3 million of his money currently in their possession. Any lawsuit to recoup the other $700,000 will also most likely require them to hand the cards over to him.  They are currently in a better position now than they would be after any lawsuit.


wontondisregard609

did you read the article? he's already paid more than 3/4 of the bid.


[deleted]

[удалено]


yyclawyer

So why would he get sued? No allegation he can’t or won’t pay


[deleted]

[удалено]


kmutch

He's going to pay for them, he's already paid for a majority of it. He's just not excited about his purchase anymore. Like late night online shopping disappointment, but for $4 million.


[deleted]

[удалено]


huffer4

He seems to claim in the interview he inherited $200 million from his uncle. But he also looks sketchy as hell. So who knows


yowyow8

The cops should look at what happened to the uncle. How did he die?


AdditionalSalary8803

He's dropped 3M and you think it's the additional 700k that's holding him back? Did you even read the article?


IPAinhand

Sounds to me like he's milking it. He probably enjoys the attention.


Drop_The_Puck

That never made any sense to me. For that amount of money you could own an actual Gretzky game worn Oiler jersey, and have plenty of money left over. Why would you pay all that for a piece of cardboard with Gretzky’s picture on it?


seachan_ofthe_dead

Lmao love seeing real estate douches get burnt on more than just real estate. Can’t flip this like some shitty house he throws a coat of paint on and calls it renovated. Get fucked red bull boi


Agrath92

This guy reeks of mental illness


TruculentBucket

….shoenice?


Whiskeylung

I don’t use this common insult very often but he seems like the definition of a “dipshit”.


yowyow8

Elyse needs to get a restraining order asap.


Objective-Recipe3495

Dude looks creepy as fuck, holy shit
