Posted By: <b>leon</b><p>So far I am high on 4 lots of the 123 I bid on in Mastro and am high on 5 of the 54 I bid on in REA....I will have to catch up to Barry's in a few days but know I put in several bids there too. At this rate I might get shutout!!! How are you looking so far? I am not sure any of my current highs will hold up.....

Posted By: <b>Bob</b><p>Still in the ballpark on some lots in each auction but the chances of a shutout are probably looking strong. It just depends if the early flurry of bidding translates in to late bidding in some form, we'll see.

Posted By: <b>barrysloate</b><p>With Mastro and REA both closing over the next five days, my auction has taken a short snooze. I look forward to having people a little more focused after the two big ones are done.<br /><br />I too have about 10-12 bids in each one, but don't expect to get more than a few.

Posted By: <b>Seth B.</b><p>What is Mastro? I hadn't heard of this before. Thanks for the tip, now I'm all over those Topps Minis.<br /><br /><br /><br /><img src="/images/wink.gif" height=14 width=14> I am only winning two bids in REA, and one is SURELY not going to hold. I figure by having a bunch of lowball estimates, I can choose to focus in on one card or so that is still undervalued when the auction is closing.

Posted By: <b>leon</b><p>I think there are some folks that don't know the economy is struggling. At this point I really wonder if I will be spending any money at all. Not high on anything for this evening so far. The auction houses should be happy with the prices I am seeing so far.....should be some interesting closing prices. regards

Posted By: <b>Wesley</b><p>Prices on most lots are incredibly high already. I can't imagine much more bidding action in the extended hours.

Posted By: <b>Preece1</b><p>Dan,<br /><br />I would buy you the Wagner if I didn't waste all my money on those worthless Four Base Hits cards from Leon and those Alphas <img src="/images/happy.gif" height=14 width=14><br /><br />Patrick<br />
