MLB 2018 Live, C Francisco Pena, STL, 2018

48 overall, currently listed for a starting bid of 3,298 PP, or buy now price of 3,299 PP.

There isn't a "Report" button in the auction house, but, uh, PSA to the seller and future buyer: you gon' get banned.

haha thats an optimistic price, isnt it?

But why would they get banned?

Someone has mariano rivera up for 1,111,111 - should they get banned too?

Auctioning a player for several 100s times what they're worth is not a bannable offense in itself. The most generous explanation I can come up with is that they meant to auction the card above or below Pena and didn't notice they right-clicked the wrong one.

But if it's intentional, they're either trolling and hoping for someone to make a colossal error (which could be bannable for making a travesty of the game, like a runner running the bases the wrong way) or they're helping to funnel PP from one account to another with a bogus transaction arranged offline (which is extremely bannable). I'm just saying, 3300 for a useless, non-collector's item card is begging for scrutiny.

I would say the same about Rivera if his usual price were in the low thousands.

I've seen this card with outrageous prices multiple times. Guy is definitely trolling or waiting for someone to think it's Tony Pena and pull the trigger without thinking.

Wow, how lame. Why would anyone buy a card without even making sure they have the right one? I hope that never works.
