MASTRO update ... I am pulling out ...
 
Posted By: <b>HalleyGator&nbsp; </b><p>I just wanted to let my friends on this board know that I am pulling OUT of the bidding for the 1894 Baltimore Cabinet card (bidding ends tonight).<BR><BR>Thus, if you wanted it and were NOT bidding on it because you just love me so much ... then have at it!!

Posted By: <b>runscott</b><p>...I've decided NOT to bid on Kevin Costner's 1973 High School yearbook. But I may still go for Muhammed Ali's cup. That and Ty Cobb's stetson, and I would feel huge and mean.

Posted By: <b>runscott</b><p>I was 0-4 in my first Mastro experience. The tobacco lots also seemed to go high, even without the juice. <BR><BR>Maybe tonight will be better - in any case, it's a lot of fun to watch! I didn't realize how much of the bidding occurs after auction close. The t206 Stahl proof I debated so long about bidding to $1,100 ended up over $1,800.

Posted By: <b>leon</b><p>The T207 Red Cross I had some interest in went for $4,000 more than the "buy it now" price on ebay a few months ago.....just wait till another one comes out in a few months for less.....or maybe that only happens to me <img src="/images/happy.gif" height=14 width=14> guess I will save my sheckels for the Lipset as there are no other "types" tonight that I can not live without...best regards all......

Posted By: <b>HalleyGator</b><p><BR>I can find a little ray of sunshine in this fact:<BR><BR>My Maximum Bid of $8,888 on the 1894 Balitmore Cabinet Card was topped only ONCE, with that bidder winning the card. Thus, I was the second-highest bidder.<BR><BR>Thus, I can take full credit for driving the price up high and making Kevin Struss and his Mastro boys some extra money. <img src="/images/happy.gif" height=14 width=14><BR><BR>Had I never bid on the card, it might have gone for much less.

Posted By: <b>TBob</b><p>if Mastro would run a supplement at the end of their auction with the names and pictures of winning bidders. I'd love to see who the guys are who are hammering me every auction at the end.
