At a sale today I bought a 6-pack of washington Redskins Superbowl Coke cans. It just amused me that anyone would have kept it. It didn't cost much more than a current 6-pack so I could always drink it.
I checked ebay,and was puzzled by what I found. For the same exact year and cans, I found a full 6-pack had no bids for $4.99. But not much earlier, a single can got 7 bids, up to $20. That seller has another can up for auction right now.
Is this just a case of "go figure"? I am not sure what to do, drink 'em or list 'em.

The disparity in auction pricing could be as simple as the search words. What I mean is, maybe more people were searching for 1 can vs. 6 cans. When I buy, I search singular and plural spellings for just that reason. Sometimes I even search misspellings.

You may want to hold onto them until early January when buyers start looking for Superbowl items again. If the Redskins make it in next year you might have a very hot item.
