1914 Cracker Jack set
Posted By: Scott Elkins
you are the John D. Rosinski I recently caught shilling two auctions of yours I was bidding on (thanks to an e-mail from Dan McKee - in which, Husband-of-Tammy ALSO caught this John D. Rosinski shilling him as well!). If this is you and your problem with me - you will get over it (I have already reported these two auctions and shillings to eBay). The seller was rizjeep - the seller used the I.D. "pookyfish" to shill myself and "husband-of-tammy"!!!! |

Scott first of all no I’m not some guy off ebay out for revenge against you so put your “pookyfish” back wear it belongs. John is a pretty common name and I’m a board member who simply disagrees with your view on the value of these cards. I have even raised an spirited discussion asking to give some insight on how you came to this monumental price tag. |

I might be getting my rumors wrong, but isn't there a lot of suspicion that the Harris collection contains a lot of trimmed/altered cards and received preferential treatment in its grading? |

Clearly everybody who is estimating what the set would bring if broken up is speculating. There is no referrence point. What drives up prices on a lot of these high grade old cards is when there are competing people trying to complete sets in high grade or other factors. For example, there are a number of people attempting to assemble high grade T206 sets and they compete for the high grade cards they want. There are not a lot of people attempting to put together a highgrade 14 set because it is next to impossible. Thus, while the HOFs would certainly generate a lot of interest, I doubt the commons would bring as much as people are fantacising about. Somebody pulled the # $500K for the Jackson out of hat, and people seem to have jumped on the bandwagon. It is possible that it would generate that much, but my estimate would be closer to $200K. We probably will never know, and I personally hope we won't because I think that set should remain as a set and not be broken up. |

I think Peter Garcia's ex/mt+ set on the PSA set registry counts as a high-grade set, though not in the same league as this recent find. Still it is pretty incredible in its own right. |

Just for fun--what movie was that from, who said it, what was it in reference to, and who wrote it? |

I actually feel bad for Peter Garcia. He has spent many years putting together an incredible set and is always trying to upgrade so that he can have the best set possible. Now it is impossible. He will have to settle for second best. |

states Mastronet "Brokered" the deal for the 1914 CJ set! So, there goes the theories that they would have left $$$$$ from breaking the set up out the window. Also, I noticed going through several back catalogs - Mastronet NEVER broke up high grade sets! Just like people complained about on this BB before in posts - their lots in their auctions seem to be catered to the dealers (who then break them up for a profit). I know the catalog with the "Southern Gentleman's" collection in it had SEVERAL HIGH GRADE sets which were sold intact (and the winning bidders could have made a profit). |

The Wilson Franks set Marc speaks of was split up into 4 lots. PSA 9 versions of the Hodges, Feller, and Williams made up 3 lots, and 17 others were bundled in 1 lot. It is my understanding that all of the cards were won by the same person and the set was put back together. |

Flash back to 11 years ago. Does anyone know what happened to this pristine 1914 CJ factory set? Was it kept as a full set and does the original owner still have it? Can anyone share the details around who sold it to Mastro and why Mastro quickly turned around and sold the set for $800k?
What's your estimate on what this set is worth now?
