Maybe he has another Koufax PSA 8 and is debating whether to still call it a $200K card.

"For the discerning collector or the profit-driven investor, this card should be an automatic. The Koufax rookie card’s climb has been as remarkable as Koufax pitching at Dodger Stadium on a hot summer day. We expect the day to come very soon, when Koufax rookies at PSA 8 will be selling well in excess of $200,000 and perhaps as $250,000. If you’ve ever contemplated a Clemente rookie, we strongly encourage you investigate this card."

Maybe they took in some late additions which were very nice, and they are making last minute changes.

I think the last Goodwin auction was pushed back several times too. Weird

Peter, this wasn't edited? This was a direct quote? This literally can't be accurate. There is no fiber in my being that recognizes this as a rational statement. I'm not laughing out loud, but I'm laughing internally at the absurdity of this quote.

I feel a little frustrated at comments like this. The world is all in favor of the rich guy. Since I can't afford these high dollar cards, I don't read these fabulous portfolio suggestions. The little guy never gets a chance.

Have Koufax's really gotten that inflated? I have a PSA 6 I paid $250 for over a decade ago. Am I sitting on money?

Update: it appears that I am.

If you put it in the $500 thread it would double your money pretty quickly.

I guess Bill Goodwin doesn't believe in previews because there is still nothing up and the auction supposedly starts tomorrow ????
