'Holy grail' Michael Jordan card sells for $350,100, setting an eBay record

Posted Feb 22, 2019
A winning bid of $350,100 secured a rare Michael Jordan basketball card Wednesday on eBay after a flurry of bids raised the price by nearly $150,000 in the final two minutes. “We call it a ‘holy grail’ because it’s so scarce and so desired that you just frankly never see it,” said Brent Huigens, CEO of PWCC Marketplace, which handled the auction.
