Cheers,

Lot #281, my first Cobb!! A few 5's went cheaper but I thought this was the nicest of the 5's that were offerred.

[mrvster]

I unfortunately was the under bidder on lot #298...

If the winner wanted to sell a card???

Peace

Johnny

I won the W600 Coughlin and a stray Ramly. If the winner of the Ramly group lots is breaking them up, I am interested in a few.

Scott

[bcbgcbrcb]

0-for-4 for me, astronomical prices for everything that I was after: 1924 Negro League panorama, 1928 Cuban team postcard w/Dihigo & J. Wilson, 1866 Chadwick cabinet card & 1904 Ohio photo w/Branch Rickey.............

Better luck next year!

[canjond]

If anyone won the lot of the 5 trimmed KBs and is selling one (any), please let me know. Thx.

[asphaltman]

[DanP]

I won these two....



Cozmo,

Great pickups! Congratulations.

Dan

[tyweb1]

I won:

LOT 914: 1961 Bazooka Panel #1-3 Mickey Mantle Progressive Proofs (7)

I am very happy with the price for that lot.

[Ladder7]

I despise the commonplace fifteen minute rule. Strange how the website reported the auction "could" end at 11pm and the insinuation that they don't want to hamstring the east coasters by running into the next day.

In my opinion, it was a great auction and I hold the company in high regard, when compared to many others.

These unnecessary, visual comments were concerning as time dragged on. Then again, I'm a paranoid cynic of all the Houses of our hobby. Steve

[PSACJ]

I won the lot with the (4) 1915 Cracker Jack PSA 8. Happy Mother's Day! :)

[cozmokramer]

Cozmo,

Great pickups! Congratulations.

Dan


Thanks dan... paid a little more than I wanted to on the Delehanty, but the Ward was a great price so it evens out!

[MacDice]

Anyone win any of the Zeenut lots?

[wonkaticket]

I despise the commonplace fifteen minute rule. Strange how the website reported the auction "could" end at 11pm and the insinuation that they don't want to hamstring the east coasters by running into the next day.

LMAO yeah I guess he should have listed them in the BST in 2-3hr intervals around mid afternoon during a work week, I tell ya that Lifson has a lot to learn about the auction process. :)

[dstudeba]

If anyone won the lot of the 5 trimmed KBs and is selling one (any), please let me know. Thx.

Unfortunately I was the underbidder so I would also be interested in any extras.

[Andy Baran]

I was bidding on the pair of N150 John L. Sullivans, but fell short. If the winner of the lot wants to part with the Full Body portrait (the card on the right), please get in touch with me. I'd love to explore a cash+trade if you are interested. Thanks!

[the-illini]

If anyone won the lot of the 5 trimmed KBs and is selling one (any), please let me know. Thx.

I would also be interested in one of these if they are sold separately.

Thanks

Chris

[Epps]

If someone won the T210's from Series 4, 6, or 7, I would be interested in a few cards.

[honus94566]

I won #564 - M101-4 Indianapolis Brewing Company Honus Wagner PSA 2

[leaflover]

If the winner(s) of the 1948 Leaf lots is on board here at Net54 and is thinking of "breaking up" some of those SP's.... I am interested!

Mike Ryan

[btcarfagno]

I was underbidder on the Zeenut with coupons lot, and maybe a few of the other Zeenut lots.

GAH!!

I won two minor lots. A PSA 9 53 Bowman B&W and the lot of 3 OJ Cabinets with Phenominal Smith.

Oh well. On to the next...

Tom C

[tbob]

Anyone win any of the Zeenut lots?


The 1911 Zeenut lot of 124 cards, of which 116 will be for sale soon as I completed my set and my partner is now within 1 card of completion! :D

On another note I was very disappointed on the final hammer price on my consigned E90-1 near set (missing Joe). It sprinted out to 13k by the 2nd day then sat there. One bid yesterday before extended bidding and no bids at all during extended bidding. Anybody whoever has put this set together knows it is very, very difficult with cards like Shean, McLean, Sweeney, Duffy, Karger, etc. and 2 Honuses, Cobb, Matty, Young, etc. A solid graded all SGC set which went for half of the SMR. Bummer. Someone is going to make a killing breaking it up. I knew I should have gone with my instincts and broken it up. Oh well, you live and learn. :(

[Matt]

I won the V100 near set of 154. I had been working on a V100 HOFer run and this lot had the last 9 cards I needed; as anyone who has ever tried to track down a card form this set knows, they are not easy to come by and I figured I'd just go for the lot instead of waiting years for the other 9 cards to show up; I was the under-bidder on the Ruth last time it surfaced 2 or 3 years ago. The other 145 will be up for sale.

Still trying to decide how to sell them - I'm not excited about 145 separate transactions and the legwork that goes along with that; at the same time, the hammer price clearly suffered as a result of it being sold a group - I know Bruce K paid a lot more to put the group together.

[SMPEP]

If the winner of the W572 lot is on this board, I'd be interested in picking up many (like 60-ish) of them.

Cheers,
Patrick

[E93]

Nice N172 Delahanty! I had my eye on that one too.
JimB

[btcarfagno]

I may be interested in your sloppy seconds if you bought a large lot for just a few cards. Contact me via pm or at tom@regalfinancialgroup.com and let me know what you have. This way, you would not have to put out so much of your own money and go through the hassle of selling a bunch of cards yourself.

And congrats to all who are closer to finishing your sets!

Tom C

[Robextend]

If the winner of LOT 632: 1933 R319 Goudey SGC EX 60 Collection (95 Different, 29 HOFers) is going to be breaking up the lot, I would be interested in a few.

I also would be interested in the Tin Tops Waddell from LOT 170: 1910-Era Hall of Famer Card Collection (19)

Thanks!! - Rob

[Touch'EmAll]

I was immediatye underbidder on a couple lots - 1921 Ruth exhibit, T206 Cobb.

Did win one modern lot - the duo - 1969 & 1970 Nolan Ryan PSA 9's. I have a soft spot for nice Ryan's - saw him pitch many games at Anaheim Stadium as a kid.

Overall, the prices did not seem too high - even little under what I thought.

[wonkaticket]

Amazing pick up guys! Wow am I tired and sleepy...

I won these and a few Non-sports that you guys aren't into etc.

http://photos.imageevent.com/piojohn3/ebay/huge/cards.jpg

Lots of T206's

http://photos.imageevent.com/piojohn3/ebay/06s.jpg

Obaks, so excited about these.

http://photos.imageevent.com/piojohn3/ebay/huge/Obaks.jpg

Some of these lots end up giving me lots of VG-VGEX-NM extras of tougher Obaks, T206's etc. might be time to list some but I'm a hoarder and lazy ugly combo.

Hope everyone did well and got what they were after.

Cheers,

John

[edhans]

Underbidder on 3 lots, including one that I'm almost certain I could have had for one more bid. Just couldn't pull the trigger. Oh well...

[DavidW]

I was prepared to bin up on the n172 Delahanty had I not won this Kbat. Very nice Delahanty.

http://bid.robertedwardauctions.com/images_items/Item_18305_1.jpg

[cfc1909]

fantastic stuff John.

Really dig the Obak sets and naturally the brown Lenox wins.

You need to start your own thread with those wins...:eek::D:eek:

[Harford20]

Dropped out of the V351 World Wide Gum bidding (lot 697) late, but couldn't justify the next bid (or three) since I really was only dreaming of the Ted Williams card.

[3-2-count]

Great picks up all. John I'm speechless!!! Congratulations my friend....

[teetwoohsix]

Wow John :eek: !!! All those cards with a Magie & Demmitt St.L.....in great condition !!!! Congrats !!!

Sincerely, Clayton

[ls7plus]

Nice pickups, all, especially John M. I won the 1910 PC796 Walter Johnson--with its Ex-Mt to NMt appearance, I really wasn't concerned about a microscope pin hole (there's a lot more material loss at the corners on a VG-EX card!). That card, based on the scan, had the best eye appeal of any PC796 I've seen! Plus, it was my first Walter Johnson--second year card, his first big year (25-17, 313 K's, 1.39 ERA, with a team that only won about 64 games, going by memory).

Best to all,

Larry

[Orions father]

I picked up lot 608: 1927 Exhibits set. Been really into 1920's cards and Exhibits so it was perfect. Even though I have been collecting vintage for 6 years, the Cobb and Gerhig will be my first cards of them.

[oldjudge]

I won Lot 35(66 Old Judges). I only need a few so if anyone needs any please email me at oldjudge@gmail.com

[leftygrove10]

If anyone won any of the Lefty Grove cards, I would be interested. I would be interested in the George C. Miller and the Eclipse Import, in particular. brad_green@cox.net

[ls7plus]

I picked up lot 608: 1927 Exhibits set. Been really into 1920's cards and Exhibits so it was perfect. Even though I have been collecting vintage for 6 years, the Cobb and Gerhig will be my first cards of them.

Very, very nice, David B. I too really love the Exhibits--almost certainly the best images of the '20's.

Larry

[Orions father]

Thanks Larry. Exhibits are underappreciated and a great value in my opinion. Love a set which has Cobb, Johnson, Alexander and also Gehrig and Ruth.

[big-six]

Was high bidder on the Ty Cobb "Fan for a Fan" when I went to bed at 1:00 am only to be crushed by two G's...Wish I knew.... I would have hit the Duke cabinet Davis one more time.

[triwak]

Tried for some of the Negro League HOFers and postcards, to no avail. But was finally able to acquire an 1869 Redstockings item, without going bankrupt on one of the Peck 'n' Snyders. Kinda diggin this doodad!

[tlwise12]

I only ended up winning one lot. I think I got a great deal on this 1939-40 Guayama Brujos team composite with Satchel Paige! I really wanted the 2 lot of the 1930-31 Harrison Studios Postcards, but couldn't afford both...

If anyone wants to let any of the following go please contact me at tlwise12@aol.com

[Edwolf1963]

I won two .. finally got one of O'Hara STL cards that brings me to completion of the "Set Minus Big 4" (Instead of "Set Minus Big 5" :D)

- O'Hara STL PSA3 Lot #288 Wasn't my favorite of the 4 being sold, but consistent with the set (all grade 3 - 6) - I thought that PSA1 was nice looking - was in last years auction, went for $2600 then as I recall? The 4's were nice too!

- Cobb Bat On Lot #342 PSA4.5 Upgrade from the BVG3 Cobb Bat On I have and put up on the BST to sell.

Happy with pick-ups and prices, thought they would have gone higher!

[Rickyy]

Well....I was invited to the prom, , picked up my date, we got there...we danced...but in the end she left with someone else.. :(

[jujudrum]

Congratulations Ed.
A milestone for your collection and a significant accomplishment.

For every collector who has attained that goal, there have been countless others who either have not been able to close the deal, or have quit in frustration and impatience.

Great work.

[Gradedcardman]

Won lot 302. 154 t-206's. Mainly for a couple cards for my set. Underbidder on the lower price Magie PSA 3. I will be selling most of these off in the near future.

[wrapperguy]

If anyone here won these lots and wants to sell off some singles, I am a buyer for the following:
Lot 582 - E121 - Series of 80 - Cobb, Deal, Douglas, Foster, Nehf, Ruth, Schupp, Snyder
Lot 618 - 1931-32 Exhibits - (player in upper left corner) - Comorosky, Klein, Maranville, Roettger, Waner
Lot 706 - 1933 Exhbit of Lopez/Wright/Vance/O'Doul, 1925-1931 Postcard-Back Four-on-One Exhibits - Harris/Groh/Dempsey/Kansas, and R315 of Pennock

Lot 739 - 1908 Dietsche of Schaefer and Morgan Red Belt "Use Two if Necessary" (come one, you can't use BOTH of them!)

Thanks,
Jeff

[Vintagecatcher]

If the winner of the 1912 Zeenuts has duplicates of Claude Berry and Walter Boles, I am interested in purchasing or trading for those two 1912 Zeenuts.

Congrats to all ....especially TBob on picking up the 1911 Zeenut lot.


Patrick

[shammus]

I believe I was the underbidder on every single zeenut lot from 1912-1920. Seemed that no matter how high I went on ANY of those, I was always topped by the auto-bidder. I even placed a 10k bid on the 1918s which got me the same result.

I did manage to eek out a win on the EUnc orange borders with a couple partners.

I suspect the winner of those Zeenut lots may be the same individual, so if that person reads this thread and wants to share, I'm willing to take on a large portion of those cards if by chance, youre going to have a bunch of dupes. I'd take anything I could get from the 1918 set in particular.

Also, if anyone won the e90-3 lot from the board, I'd be interested in several of those cards as well.

Thanks guys!

[sb32]

Just missed on a couple of things. Got nothing. Would be interested if anyone selling off Obaks, e97s or T210s.

[sbfinley]

Never got a chance to get online for extended bidding.:eek:
So got outbid on both lots I was after.


Oh well, I was busy.:D

Thanks--Jay

[Orions father]

[nolemmings]

congrats on a great pickup Steve. Missed that one--what Lot # was it? Pretty sparse description--would have expected more flowery language :)

nice pickup Steve! Beautiful boy.

Steve,

The greatest pick-up one could ever hope for. Congrats!

Congrats! That trumps anything the rest of us picked up last night!

[kcohen]

Picked up this one. Trying to put together set of N162 baseball players. Three to go.

on a card note, I picked these up. Not sure if I got a deal or paid too much but am happy with them.

1933 George C Millers, I am interested in the Gehringer

1947 Tip Tops, I am interested in Mize and Rizzuto

1925 Exhibits, I am interested in either Terry

1923-24 Exhibits, I am interested in the Simmons

I have good stuff to trade also,

Matt

[Delray Vintage]

I was the high bidder on the peck & snyder until 2:20 am, So much for the ending anytime after 11, seems like the usual waiting till 3:54 am, terrible way to be customer friendly. I know this is the way many do it, but the fair way is to close lot by lot.

[e107collector]

I put a bid on this card the first day, and was stunned to see the final price of over $35k w/o the bp.

I was thinking if I won the card - Would I have the borders restored, or just leave it alone? Either way, it would still grade the same - Authentic.

Just wondering anyone else's thoughts on this? If you won the card, would you restore the borders?

Would it hurt the value if is was restored?

Any thoughts?

Tony

[bcornell]

I won the T204 Plank and now have an SGC 60 dupe that needs a new home. Also won the Rose PC's, which I'm gladly keeping, and the Max Stein group of 7. A couple of those are going elsewhere, but I'd be willing sell or trade McGraw, Bodie, Tinker and the Cubs outfield. And maybe the Wagner, if I got the right offer.

This was the year I was going to sit it out. My lack of willpower is shameful.

Edited to add: the real-time chat last night was very enjoyable. Thanks to Matt for defeating both Al Qaeda and the Japanese to make that accessible again.


Bill

[Edwolf1963]

C'mon Steve, where are your priorities man..?! :D

Congratulations on the new addition!!!

Just got back from going to Les Miserables with my daughter. Finally saw it after several years of wishing.:D
Here's some of the cards from the lot I won, don't worry I won't post all 124!

[gabrinus]

I won the T216 Mino Demmitt, the e92 Crofts red back Davis, and the 3 E105 Mello Mint commons. Bob, nice lot you won. Congrats on Les Miserables as well.

[margoaepi]

They aren't cards, but I took home these two lots . . . very excited.

[insidethewrapper]

I didn't win anything. I was outbid on a few items at around 3:30 am. I wish it would have ended sooner.

[jp1216]

Nice pickups everyone. I was in and out quicker than I was in high school.
Still fun to see what everyone got. Congrats...

[familytoad]

Even though i am on the west coast i cant stay up that late:o

Best pickup is surely Steve's. The lil' fella looks high grade to me but please don't slab him ;)

My eye was on the Yorks, but I only wanted a few cards. I didnt want to tie up that much cash knowing how dumb I get about having dupes...instead of selling/trading I just start a second set...no willpower and lazy:o
so the winner of any of the Yorks, contact me if you have extras for sale. I need several upgrades although my base set (type 1) is complete.

[mrvster]

CONGRATS GUYS!!!

JOHN M.

HOLY BLEEP!!!

[dstudeba]

David - incredible N690, congrats!

[Tim Kindler]

Congrats to everyone! It is always exciting to see everyone's pick ups after a big auctiuon even if you didn't win anything yourself!:o As everyone else seems to agree, Steve and his wife got the best pick up of the night!

Best Wishes to all!

Tony
Keeping in mind that I am not even close to being an advanced collector:

Personally, I would restore the card. It has already been trimmed and will never grade higher than "AUTH" so why not improve its appearance? Like the T206 Wagner in this auction - it was restored twice, the second time to improve it even more.

I have no idea if it would hurt the value, however.

[glchen]

Broke the bank to pick up this bad boy, my first Red Sox Ruth.

Congrats, that was a steal at that price!

[Ladder7]

Congrats to Steve and the missus. Time to start saving. Msg sent

Gary, great pc. That was my favorite item of all.

[Mrc32]

No Babe Ruth, but I did pick up my first REA win-- a lot of 10 e102 in nice shape. I think I got a nice deal.

On the off chance that the winner of the sepia ER Williams breaks up the set, I would be interested in acquiring one as type.

[vintagewhitesox]

If anybody won the lot of 22 49 Leaf Short Prints, I am interested in a few of them.

Great pickups guys.

[Bicem]

Great Ruth rppc Gary, one of my favorite auction items as well!

[glchen]

Thanks, guys, appreciate it. Definitely the cornerstone of my collection right now.

[DixieBaseball]

Struck out swinging on the T210-8 Series lot after fouling several off. :eek: I placed 4 straight bids late to push that sub-set up quite a bit... (Someone wanted the set really bad at $235 per card) Placed about a dozen bids overall, and came up empty this year.

[E93]

John (Wonka),
Amazing pickups!!!!

Congratulations everyone on the great pickups. Cosmo, That n172 Delahanty is spectacular.

I think you got that SF Hess for a steal at that price. Great card and who knows when you will see another example from that set.

[Leon]

Jim B
I think you got that SF Hess for a steal at that price. Great card and who knows when you will see another example from that set.


I totally agree and even said so the night of the auction. Great pickup for 60% of the real market value, imo.

[E93]

Thanks guys. I am very excited about it. I was surprised to get it for that price too after chatting with Leon on auction night. Glad we were wrong.
JimB

[mybuddyinc]

Adam, great Ringside...... glad it has Leonard for you, but Marciano ain't bad n'either ....... :)

Tbob, sorry to see your e90-1's go so low :( ....... someone got deal of the auction.

[felada]

I agree with Leon. Easily a 10k card. If I had any idea it would go that cheap i would have been more aggressive in pursuing it. I also think the 'common' Kbat Mets went cheap as well.

I got this V61 Ruth...was up until Auction ending to make sure I got it...then woke up a couple hours later to run the Tough Mudder @ Mt. Snow, Vermont...that's dedication!!!

Jim,

Wow that Hess is super you got a good deal! And the Chance well that aint shabby either!

As always I love seing your cards.

Cheers,

Broke the bank to pick up this bad boy, my first Red Sox Ruth.


Congrats Gary - From now on I will try to vicariously get enjoyment from that awesome Ruth Postcard everytime I see your avatar. I was considering pulling the trigger but looks like it went to a good home. Congrats again.

Adam, great Ringside...... glad it has Leonard for you, but Marciano ain't bad n'either ....... :)

Tbob, sorry to see your e90-1's go so low :( ....... someone got deal of the auction.


Thanks Scott. I have no clue what happened. 14k and an SMR (which is nowhere near what they go for on ebay, they sell for more) of 22k or so. Darned if I know. Like I say, we live and learn. The E90-1 set has never been a "hot" set like some of the other sets but where else can you get two Wagners, Cobb, Matty, all the HOFers and all those scarce variation and horizontal cards? I'm just glad I didn't buy the Joe Jackson and added it to the set to make it complete. There's another E90-1 near set of 119/120 (minus Joe) in Mile High right now with a minimum bid of 25k. Maybe that didn't help. Oh well I'll take the 14k and plow it back in to more cards. :o

When I saw that sitting there at midnight at that price, I was so annoyed I had not put a place-holder bid on it earlier so I could bid.

win anything Rob?

[Matt]

What? Nobody has their winnings in hand yet? Rob must have blown a tire on the delivery truck.

[Peter_Spaeth]

I just received next year's catalog.

Nothing on the cardboard side. Really wasn't chasing any cards in this year's auction.

I just received next year's catalog.

It hasn't got to Lucas yet.

[ls7plus]

Never got a chance to get online for extended bidding.:eek:
So got outbid on both lots I was after.


Oh well, I was busy.:D

Superb Ruth, EJW--congrats! It's almost as exciting to see what everyone else won as my own winning lot.

Thanks guys.

Really fun auction, picked up my stuff from REA today (Thanks Dean, Tom & Rob) still sitting in my office it's 2am and I'm still pulling Obaks out of sheets and they are in unreal condition be dropping these sets off to SGC this week.

I feel like I'm 12 again, almost makes me sad to pull them from the sheets. :o

Maybe I should have a guess the grades game...LOL

Cheers,

John

[M's_Fan]

Not sure if I overpaid or not on lot #423, but I'm sure excited about it! I'm definitely keeping the Wagner, but I may put a few of these up on eBay.

While I like the Wagner, I am totally amazed it got a '2' with that big water stain across the front of the card. That makes the other '2'' in the same grouping look like a '4'......

[e107collector]

M's Fan - do you happen to know why the Lajoie got a 2? I don't see any any stains or creasing from the scan, maybe something on the back?

Nice group anyway, congrats.

The Lajoie has a tiny bit of paper loss on the back which explains the downgrade.

That Wagner...I can't get over that oil slick on there. Is that going to be a prime candidate for a soaking?

[ChiefBenderForever]

I don't think it will come out but need to consult Dick Towle for correct answer but what a great looking group of cards, awesome pickup !

[M's_Fan]

It never occurred to me that a stain like that could be removed by soaking. Glue and tobacco can soak off, but I wouldn't guess stains like that would go away. But I've never soaked anything so I don't know much about this.

[Orions father]

With all the Seinfeld fans on here I am suprised that I didn't see the Monk's Diner menu mentioned. Anyone pick it up?

[redmansam]

1) Did anyone here win any of the Domino Discs (I need 7 Reds commons) ?
2) How about the Silks (I need 3) ?
3) Or the Reds (Red Belts) PC's ?

Thanks, Len
