T206 Lumley Old Mill from Greg Morris
Well, my max $800 bid didn’t quite get the job done…

What’s going on here? I don’t know a ton about Old Mills. Why did it go for almost ten times your max bid. Was it a rare-colored Old Mill?

I believe there are only two graded by PSA, and none by SGC. So it's a rare one for sure.

Might also be
There were really only 2 bidders above the $1,700 mark. And they both bid right at the end of the auction, probably using snipe services.
Could just be a simple case where two bidders really wanted it, and typed in a crazy high number to make sure that they got it. And in the end, one of them typed in a number larger than the other, so got it. Of course, with that strategy, sometimes the winner might end up paying a lot more than they really wanted to, and so the price can end up being a bit inflated. Hopefully they actually pay up now!

There are 4 reasons why this went so high: (1) someone doing an old mill subset, (2) someone doing a player back run, (3) someone trying to put together a master set, or (4) someone who collects super rare cards or t206 front/back combos |

It went from $650 to almost 8k in one minute, wild. The underbidder definitely thought they had it at that price.

T206 Lumley Old Mill from Greg Morris
I think some of the recent Tolstoi results demonstrate that there are some deep pockets chasing these low-pop “common” cards.
I had to talk myself into an $800 ceiling for this card, but I pretty much assumed from the outset that it would reach low four figures. I did not see $7.7K coming. I imagine Greg Morris didn’t see it coming either… Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Last edited by inceptus; 02-04-2023 at 11:36 AM. |
