Pre War Auction is Live, 24 hours left, with great boxing and baseball!

As a first time participant in one of Scotts auctions I was amazed by the descriptions he uses. I don't know who writes the descriptions but that person should win some kind of most honest descriptions in the business award. There is no hyperbole about the player or the cards. Just an honest description of the cards flaws no matter the player.

This is my favorite so far:
This one absolutely learned it's "A" grade. Between a back that is severely damaged due to album residue and paper loss and a recolored front, it's authentic, and that's about it.

Thanks Ben, I do try to be honest. I've been a buyer long enough to know how I wish something were described when I'm on that end of the transaction, so I try and use that as my guide. I'm sure there's a wrinkle I missed somewhere, but I do try.

Also 80 more lots added tonight. Including a lot of Boxing. I didn't quite finish and I'm unfortunately going away for the weekend so it probably won't be completed until Tuesday night, but that just gives you more to look forward to!

If anyone doesn't know Scott, I can also add i've dealt with him plenty of times at his live auctions and even during the live auctions he would mention issues with cards that might not be obvious at first glance.

Scott, is there a problem with the site, it doesn't seem to be loading?
I put in a few bids at the start and it seemed like a good auction. Hope to see it back it up, if it's down.

Unless it is my end. Does it work for others?

[Aquarian Sports Cards]

ugh letting my guy know now, thanks for the heads up!

[Aquarian Sports Cards]

All better, thanks again! Photos, programs and miscellaneous to be added tonight.

A couple of unsolicited testimonials, there are tons of bargains still to be had with 24 hours left.

Scott, nice job with the auction. Looking forward to the next one.

Thanks,

Everything that is paid for should ship by Wednesday. Got some good results, but there were definitely bargains to be had. Looking for Pre-War #2 in the spring if anyone is interested!

+1 great job, I won the main card I wanted but got outbid on the other 2.
