Private Auction

Posted By: Paul

I just placed my first bid ever in a private auction and I actually won. The name of the seller sounded familiar from SCD, and the price was too good to pass up, so I thought I'd take a chance. I'll let you know how it works out. Please wish me luck.

I have bought from the seller before without any problem. Previously he did NOT have private auctions, not sure why he has now gone that route.

Bill Diebold has been around for years and has a sterling reputation. He has a shop about 20 miles from where I live. He doesn't do much in the way of cards; he's more of a memorabilia guy.

I don't recall him doing private auctions before either, but I seriously doubt you'll have any issues with this transaction.

I bid on my first private auction, also from the same seller--alas, I did not win, as the final price was pretty healthy (considering I won the Kaat for $90 a couple of years ago):

I too wondered why the auction was private, but knew the seller's reputation to be solid.
