Happy with my pickups!

What did everyone else get?

[shammus]

Auction seemed to end suddenly at 3:10 central time. I won the e95 "Orange" Cicotte color varation (this card is typically bright red)

Also won the large d304 group of 21 w/ Matty and some back varations pictured here -
http://bid.robertedwardauctions.com/bidplace.aspx?itemid=21956

Not sure if I'll go after the d304 set or not so I'll likely have a ton of extras as I really only wanted a couple cards...

[mcap100176]

Happy with the price on my one winning.

LOL!!! Pickups?? I bid up two lots to a premium and STILL got outbid at 2:30 in the morning. Can't help but laugh.....

[bcbgcbrcb]

I was happy to pick up the 1915 World Series Game 5 Program (Boston vs. Philadelphia) w/both team photos included. This program is significant because it was Babe Ruth's first world series appearance. The Babe is pictured in two different Boston team photos within the program.

[z28jd]

Good news, bad news. I actually won something in REA for the first time and it was the lot I really wanted but had to bid one more bid than my supposed absolute max(set by me on day one) to get it. So while I won lot 72(fifty OJ's), I have to sell a lot more of it off than I planned. I hate extra work, but I crossed off a card that has been at the top of my wantlist for about 8-10 years so I'll take the trade-off

[bobbyw8469]

That is great news z28jd!! If you have patience, try pulling just the one card out, and the ship the exact same back minus the one card to REA for next years auction!! You will basically get the card free then, as I bet the set brings more next year than it brought this year!

Thanks. If I was the only one that put in on the lot, then I would do that but as it was, at the lower bid, about half the cards were going to be sold anyway by my bidding partner (aka bank of dad). The bigger picture is I did get the card I wanted but now I just have to figure out how much more than $free do I have to pay for it. I'm guessing $alot when it's all said and done

[rainier2004]

I lost my big dog, but it wound up much higher that Id be willing to pay even with full clearance from the wife. Underbidder on the t200/t222 lot, really wanted that. Did pick-up the 1940 play ball set, only 2 increments higher than my original max :). After going thru lot by lot, it appears there were a few nice buys and I wish I had made a few more placement bids early on.

But, if the winner of lot #359 is out there (CJ display) Id love a chance at a couple of those CJs.

[4815162342]

What was your big dog?

[Republicaninmass]

I would be interested in a number of cards from lot 1090: 172 autographed 1952 topps cards

[frankbmd]

Didn't go over my max.

May 11th Wallet Thickness = May 13th Wallet Thickness

[Leon]

There were a few lots I wanted more but they went too high. My main card I wanted was the Type 2 Coupon Cobb but it just went higher than I wanted to go on it. I can cross off the Contentnea pack as one I need as I got the T pack lot with it in it and I got the Contentnea type 1 graded set. Love the look of that set and was about 35-40% done already....so will mix-match the two and let the rest go. I fell asleep and woke up with a few bids left in me or I wouldn't have won anything.

[rainier2004]

What was your big dog?

the low grade Cincy CDV...

[Clutch-Hitter]

Nice buys everybody

Nice card and bat Jamie..side note: haven't seen an ASA holder in a while, always liked them and thought they did a good job

Nice program Phil, outstanding actually

[PEEK enterprises]

If the winner of this lot is interested in parting with the trimmed T206 Cobb, please contact me.

Thank you.

ppgustafson@yahoo.com

[ullmandds]

I was shutout...it seems full...high retail prices are in vogue these days!

If anyone won the e94 near set want to shed some of the cards...pls email me at ullmandds@gmail.com.

[BradH]

I was the underbidder on two lots, including #233 (E90-2 American Caramel Pirates team set).

I know it's a long shot, but if the buyer of the lot wants to part with the Wagner, please contact me...

[sb1]

If the winner of the Ramly Set is looking to break it up I am interested in a few.

Scott

[scmavl]

If anyone here won Lot 665, I'm interested in the Killebrew Bazooka box.

[wondo]

I got the T200 set - full price.

I checked the Recent Bid listing and, at the close, it seems like bids were still coming in 5-10 a minute. Probably could have gone on for hours.

I feel better knowing Leon liked the card even though I paid too much. I just couldn't resist a card described as incredibly stunning, elusive and extremely rare, and the finest ever seen. :rolleyes:

[mannybb24]

If the winner of the 7-card Cuban lot that included the Moore and Oms Tomas Gutierrez is interested, I'd be willing to pay a few grand over the winning bid for the whole lot as I fell asleep and missed the end of the auction.:(
And as you can see my want list at the bottom, the lot contained 3 of the cards I'm looking for.

[rainier2004]

I got the T200 set - full price.

I checked the Recent Bid listing and, at the close, it seems like bids were still coming in 5-10 a minute. Probably could have gone on for hours.

That set looks amazing, very high end especially for the frail cards. Display?

Had I not checked all of the images on VCP and only gone by REA's really great write up, I might have gone higher. It's a sweet card but there will be another day on that one, for me. Nice pick up and congrats. It would have gone nice with my type 1 and type 3 from the series.

[wondo]

That set looks amazing, very high end especially for the frail cards. Display?

Not sure yet; I'll move all the cards to a consistent slab and figure it out from there. Now I own a Cobb, Jackson, Thorpe and a bunch of other cool guys! :D Stuff I never could afford individually.

[Frank A]

I was happy to get lot 168, Two Cobb cards. Thought it would go higher.

[btkpath]

I would love to know if anyone here got the Cracker Jack advertisement display with the 4 mounted cards and 7 separate raw cards. I would be VERY interested in the Ad Brennan card if it is a 1914 and you wanted to break up the display.

Some great pick-ups last night......Congrats to all who added to their collections!

[triwak]

finally, Finally, FINALLY nabbed this HOFer!! Was the under bidder on the Tomas Gutierrez - blank back, but with the uncertainty as to how it was issued, couldn't pull the trigger to go higher. But I'm very pleased with this image, even with the damage! :)

[atx840]

Great cards everyone.

Jamie a great score as those miscuts are very rare and now it's crossed off your error list!

Strong prices for sure, the bown Lenox lot went lower then I thought, would love to know who picked it up.

[E93]

Nice Coupon Cobb!

Here are mine.

[ValKehl]

If, by any chance, the winner of this SGC 30/2 Hooker might be/would be interested in upgrading it to a PSA 5 Hooker (the highest graded E222 in the PSA & SGC pop reports), kindly contact me a ekehl333@aol.com. I'm quite willing to downgrade to a lesser condition Hooker card in order to be able to add something else to my collection, which consists of mostly lower grade cards anyway.

That Rusie is spectacular!

[Donscards]

That Rusie is spectacular!

Needless to say I love Mayo's---Great buy on the Duffy---I thought it went a little low---I believe all the Mayo HOF's went under SMR---The common N300's are going book or over usually but the Hall of Famers are going under---one of the best sets out there---good buy again Don

[Matthew H]

Lost on the two OJ lots I was bidding on... I thought the lot of 57 went cheap considering what was in there, I just couldn't do it right now.

I was also bidding on the lot of sliding poses, which went higher then I thought it would.

[Bosox Blair]

Hung on to land this beauty:

[bcbgcbrcb]

Jim:

Great pick-up on the OJ Rusie, I really wanted that one but didn't have the resources to make a run at it this time.

Ken:

Congrats on finally picking up the Torrienti!

[sb32]

Finally picked up an Obak Weaver for my set.

attach]63361[/attach]

[HercDriver]

I got beat on the lot of 35 Sovereign T205s...bummer! I still got something out of it though, as there was one in there that I didn't have on my list of possibles...I guess that's my way of making myself feel better.

Take Care,
Geno

[kkkkandp]

If one of you Net 54 members won Lot 69 (25 Old Judges) and is breaking it up, I am interested in a couple of the cards.

Thanks! :)

[gman]

If the winner of lot 431 (George Miller PSA graded cards) wants to sell any of the individual cards, please let know. I'm interested in a few of the cards. Thanks.

[rsst206]

Hi If winner of this lot wants to sell the S74 silks.
Please shoot me message
Best regards

[milkit1]

sigh, I'm interested in some commons from the signed goudey lot.

Love the Rusie, and nice snipe...just a couple minutes before they shut it down!

Thanks! :)

I wonder which one(s). :)

[margoaepi]

Picked up the PSA 8 33 goudey Hack Wilson. Given it went for twice the price in the recent Greg Bussineau auction, I'm pretty pleased.

[wolterse]

very happy to grab this beauty...also grabbed the indian chiefs album to compliment my n2 set. Great night for me!

[RobertGT]

I picked up my first Cracker Jack. First one I could afford:

[rebelsart]

If the winner of REA lot 176 (1909-1911 T206 White Border "Tolstoi Backs" Collection (43) Including Cobb and Johnson) plans on breaking this up - I would be interested in the Willett, Detroit card.
Thank you,
Art M.

[AgonyandIvy]

My 1st post, and I can't think of a better subject for post #1 than a Babe Ruth 1933 Goudey acquisition. I had to go one bid higher than I would have liked, but am happy to have obtained my 3rd Ruth Goudey. Just need one more, unfortunately the toughest - #53. But at least I have all three poses.

Oh yeah, if anyone here scored the M116 lot (#242), I'm interested in purchasing the Wood...if you don't need it. Please PM me!

Cheers,

Congrats on finally picking up the Torrienti!

Thank you Phil!!!

[Matt]

Underbidder on a few, and won a few. I believe it's been 8 years since the last time a T5 Walsh came up for sale (and it was this one):

really like that Walsh, thought you got a good deal too!

[Matt]

Thanks Jeff - given the rarity, I wasn't sure what to expect with the Walsh - I know there was a unique pose Auth Cobb that went for quite a bit a year or two ago and was very happy this ended were it did.

Welcome on the board ! and congrat for this great goudey ruth card. It is my favorite pose in the 33 goudey set.

Great card -- if there are no spider wrinkles, I bet SGC would bump that one to an SGC 60. I would consider submitting it in slab to see.

My SGC 60 Grove used to be in a PSA 4 holder:

Thanks guys. It was a late addition after I was getting my brains beaten in on some other lots I was bidding on.

[T206Collector]

I can't believe you let that one get away!

Sometimes the perfect plan falls apart. Fortunately I have two others. If it was one I needed I would be devastated!

[HOF Auto Rookies]

Whoever won lot 910 with Wheat, Cuyler and Hafey and looking to sell or trade those, please contact me.

[jcmtiger]

Any Detroit Old Judge cards from the lots I may be interested if they come up for sale.

Thanks joe

[Michael Peich]

Hi all-I am interested in T209-IIs if the winner of Lot #737 has any to sell. Thank you.
Cheers, Mike

[tbob]

I wasn't going to pay 13k for a group of cards I already had, just to get one E94 common, the red background Lake. If you bought this lot and are willing to sell it and get a nice price on the Lake, send me a pm or email. I'll keep the buyer's name confidential if you'd like.

[g_vezina_c55]

anybody here buy the graded 4 goudey lajoie ?

[pcoz]

Glad to add this one to the other Old Puts in the collection....

[chaddurbin]

ugh big price paid for that puppy

[benchod]

ugh big price paid for that puppy

Roger that! Danger of two bidders fighting it out

[pcoz]

Not cheap, but since I had 7 Old Puts already, I would've paid a good bit more for it. Only one known of Mack and only 18 documented Old Put Cigar's total.

[Edwolf1963]

I won REA lot #179 - the 25 T206 HOFs in PSA 4 or 4.5s. I only need 3-5 to swap out w/what I have in lower grade and / or straight sell the rest. If anyone needs any of those (and the link to the lot is still up), let me know as I will probably list on Net54 first. Check out the link on REA (if it's still up?) - beautiful fronts, well centered and clean (looked really strong for the grade), although no shot of the backs, so not sure what they hold? (always afraid of the all-too-often PSA 4 or 5 with wrinkles or paper loss)

Anyway, the ones (offhand, need to reference and I'm of the country until next week) I know I'll keep / swap out are:

Matty Portarit (replaces a Matty in a 3 - which I'll list)
M Brown Cubs (replaces a 3 - which I'll list as well)
Cy Young Bare Hand (replaces a 3, list that one as well)
A couple others I can't recall now and I may keep/swap some of the SOV 150s as well.

Thanks,

Ed

[tbob]

Glad to add this one to the other Old Puts in the collection....


Congrats on the Mack. I was a bidder but I bowed out with other irons in the fire. You are right though, you'll never see another Old Put Mack for sale. Good job! ;)

[uffda51]

Just got my REA winnings from Saturday's auction via FEDEX.

Thanks Rob!

http://bid.robertedwardauctions.com/images_items/Item_21680_1.jpg

[bcbgcbrcb]

Just received my REA item today as well, 1915 Boston vs. Philadelphia World Series Program. Thanks again, Rob, for the speedy service and picking up the shipping costs this year.

[Matt]

Thanks again, Rob, for the speedy service and picking up the shipping costs this year.

I guess 'picking up the shipping costs' worked in some folks favor; it did not work in mine. I won 2 cards and the extra 1% BP cost me an additional $90.50, which is well more then what insured shipping would have cost.

[calvindog]

Sounds like you got screwed.

[Matt]

Sounds like you got screwed.

Not really - I knew what I was paying for - I'm just not going to thank him for picking up the shipping costs, when I actually paid more for them in the BP.

[Bicem]

better than +1% BP and no free shipping I guess

[HRBAKER]

Matt,

$90.50, no step for a stepper! ;)

[sycks22]

Excited to get my D359 Krause. First one

[jimross]

For those of you who already received those items that u won from REA, how did u pay them? Does REA accept credit card? The auction just ended ~72 hrs ago.

[joeadcock]

EJW

Nice card.

[Jay Wolt]

For those of you who already received those items that u won from REA, how did u pay them? Does REA accept credit card? The auction just ended ~72 hrs ago.
REA doesn't accept credit cards. Rob sends some winning lots to better customers & friends after the auction ends.
Some have posted here during the last few auctions that they rec'd their lots before they even wrote out the check.

[scooter729]

better than +1% BP and no free shipping I guess

And much better than Heritage's auction, which ended a week earlier, 19.5% BP, $28 to ship one small item, I paid via credit card the next day and it still hasn't shipped. But just sayin'.....
