What did you get in Heritage auction?

[Rhotchkiss]

Picked up a great looking 79 opee-Chee Gretzky rookie in a PSA 8. Definitely an unusual get for me, but always wanted one of the Great One, and now I have one. I thought the t206s brought some very healthy prices, and some of the early 1950's were a steal (see 51 bowman Mays 6 and 52 topps Jackie 4.5, etc).

I won a trio of Sovereign's

I also won a lot with a very rare Mordecai Brown! Who else was watching this and knows what it is?

Aaron PSA 9 rookie came down to earth in heritage too selling for $192k. Last august Aaron PSA 9 rookie sold for $358k in heritage. Price dropped about in half in less than a year.
Also Aaron PSA 8 rookie sold for $19k last night.

Anyone surprised? Still way too high for how plentiful they are.

Oh I am quite certain there are many people who are surprised. Some of them posted constantly telling all of us how it was a new era in collecting.

Some of those collectors are playing musical chairs, and unfortunately, now realize their chair is missing.

Aaron psa 8 rookie sold for $19k is a new low.

I picked up the exmt '33 Goudey Vance, a card for which I had been questing for a long time, and a Fatima T200 vg of the Cubs. Still amazed at the volume and price levels of dollars thrown at the Willies, Micks, Hanks, Roses, Sandys etc. and the market's ability to absorb the seemingly endless supply on offer by the auction houses. Must be a happy time for consignors of these cards. A brave new world? If so, my target market segment has definitely shrunk.

I won that 51 Bowman Mays. Couldn't believe it. I went to bed early and never thought my high bid would hold. I'm happy though!!

You stole that Mays 6. I was the underbidder and went back and forth on whether to re-up, but I didn't, so it's yours! Great card and great buy, congrats

Nice job on the Lajoie. I was bidding on it, but decided to put my money elsewhere. You got a great buy.

I was going to post that I couldn't remember a 33G Lajoie in a 2 holder selling for that much. Within the last year heritage sold a very comparable 2, it was centered better than this one and had a staple hole (this example has a tear). That one went for less than 24K.

I think the "almost" in his comment means he missed on the Lajoie.
