Ummm... What?! Buyer of record O-Pee-Chee case no longer wants it?!

Auction

Hockey

Sports Cards

O-Pee-chee

This is bananas. The buyer got into a highly competitive, highly publicized bidding war and ended up with the case of 1979 O-Pee-Chee hockey for $3.7M, and now is having second thoughts?

Apparently he paid $3M but hasn't paid in full, and the cards are still vaulted with Heritage.

I would assume anyone bidding at that dollar amount is pre-vetted, right? Crazy to change your mind on a decision like that... wonder what happened, and what the recourse is?
