Default Auctions

Clementes, Mantles, and Koufax's almost always sell at least 10% of book no matter how ugly...

Be careful not to project your condition biases on other people, while a crease is a non-starter for you, for others bad centering or a dinged corner is worse...Also, I saw that your McCovey sold at around noon on a weekday...would always try to end them at 9pm-ish EST over the weekend...Most casual collectors are buying at that time...

Lastly, there is just no rhyme or reason sometimes to final prices using an auction format...I used to auction things off here and there but now I feel more comfortable pricing it at a reasonable BIN and waiting for the right buyer. Only problem with that is that you have to wait patiently
