Am I missing something with this eBay auction...

Saw this on eBay today but it just looks like a regular copy of Tales of the Monster Path.

The HuCard looks white on the back and faded yellow on the front... so what exactly is he thinking by asking $3000 for it... 

...or have I missed something..?

What you are missing is that some asshat is hoping there's someone out there stupid enough to buy his bullshit.

yeah that's what I first though... but I was just checking that there wasn't some new unknown Hu that I never knew existed.

what a fekking tool... I do pity some of the new guys collecting games as there as so many sharks out there waiting to take anyone for a ride.

There was a gold version of this card released. Looking at the pics on the auction, I am not sure if this is the gold version!

One source that mentions the gold version is:

Adol also has it in his collection:

FYI there was also a gold version of Power League.

Oh well that is interesting then... I must have seen that before as I have looked at pics of Adol's collection many times...

But the one on eBay doesn't look like the Adol's at all, it just looks like its faded a bit in the sun.

Adol's...
