Shameless Plug.
Just checking in and noticed that there is a lot of Post War material that still hasn't caught an opening bid including some items I had consigned.
A lot of bargains over there at the moment.
Good Luck to everyone.

Feel free to open them up! LOL!
Much appreciated.

actually, considering the grades, they look to be a nice deal for a set collector

I would not say Dirt Cheap but for an intellectual exercise I did check the Beckett values (and to be honest, they do an excellent job on tracking the graded market) and EVERY lot mentioned has a very reasonable minimum bid.
Now, there is no star cards in there to make lots more appealing to the collector but all the opening bids are very fair compared to Book Value

the consignor had to pay for the cards, pay for grading, pay for shipping to and from grader, and to sterling, and pay sterling a fee. yeah those are dirt cheap prices and i am sure a loss for the consignor, if he was also the submitter.

Commons are of just no interest to buyers. I bought a "common" for $30 on one of the auction houses. It sold for $22 on Ebay (before fees). You lose a lot of flippers on commons, because there is just no guarantee you can flip it for profit.
