+1 Tony.

Not all Cobbs were created equal. Seems like 150 series examples are a bolder, deeper green...and crisper clarity, right?

Even the PSA 7 Cobb Bat Off in ML seems to have registration/clarity issues.

Yes. I've noticed the same thing regarding Planks: the 150 Series is a deeper blue.

+1 to that. The registration/clarity issues would be a deal breaker for me.

I'll toss in my favorite 4 into the mix. :)

Wow, nice!

Sgc 4 is nice

Did a little research into market bubbles. This seems about right:


Behavioral finance theory attributes market bubbles to cognitive biases that lead to groupthink and herd behavior. Other theoretical explanations of market bubbles have suggested that they are intrinsic and contagious.

Emotional and cognitive biases seem to be the causes of bubbles, but often, when the phenomenon appears, pundits try to find a rationale, so as not to be against the crowd. Thus, sometimes, people will dismiss concerns about overpriced markets by citing a new economy where the old valuation rules may no longer apply. This type of thinking helps to further propagate the bubble whereby everyone is investing with the intent of finding a greater fool. Still, some analysts cite the wisdom of crowds and say that price movements really do reflect rational expectations of fundamental returns. Large traders become powerful enough to rock the boat, generating market bubbles.

Thanks!

That 4 looks great - better than the 7 in the auction. If my trimmed Cobb were a Wagner it probably would have received an 8.

Here's the question in the nearer term (say within 2 yrs) will a comparably graded Green Cobb exceed a Magie error in value/sales price.

If you go into your User CP and change the default posts-per-page to 80, the bubble is shorter (and so is the clicking) :)

I personally think the market on Green Cobbs is a bit inflated. That means everyone thinking of getting one should get one now as they are probably about to take off :(.

.

whoever bought that cobb for 16k just got it as I was contacted by PSA to remove it from my registry. Of course i wasnt the one that consigned it....i wonder how many times it changed hands. I did have the card for sale here on net54.....people kept quoting SMR to me..(you know who you guys are)

OK....So what's your point Jake?

Sad to see for me. I didnt realize it was my card that got the records market high price until today. Not everyday you see that.. Good luck to the new buyer with it.

Pretty beat up. Still 3.5k This just sold.

any thoughts on the M116 Cobb? Not to go off topic, but it is kinda a "poor mans" T206 portrait. Pop doesn't seem to be that high as well.

Never trust BIN prices on ebay...its hard enough to trust regular auctions on ebay but at least you can see some bidding behaviors

Always a ton of psa 1-2.5 1933 ruths, t206 cobbs etc out there on ebay BINs..... no significant price jumps on those unlike the psa 4s +

How Ty Cobb green back how high can they go PSA 4 $16000+
 

I hear ya about bin prices but I did see one end for 4700 the other day and Cobb had a crease in his head! A lot of bids as well.

I have an SGC 40 I'm gonna move soon. Let's see what happens with a no reserve auction I guess. [emoji3]

Hello i bought it and its super nice the card looks to be undergraded .

Congrats on a sweet card!
 

Congrats on the sweet pick up! It's a beauty

Thanks i wanted it i may have over paid but it had my name all over it .

When it comes to high end cards like this one, I think that you can never pay too much, only too soon. If the card isn't worth quite what you paid for it today, it soon will be. :)

...$12,500

If you get it re-graded higher then its undergraded for sure

I'm in the same boat. Let mine go before the run up. Oh well. It was the best decision at the time with the information I had available.

Green cobb cant be stopped PSA 3 sells for $7100 PWCC

dunno...it is/was pwcc after all. rounded corners and all thats a strong price.

Right PWCC always gets Huge prices.

Last few hours of bidding and it's $44,000 with commission.

Memory Lane Cobbs-

Green Port 7- $67k
Red Port 7- $35k
Bat on 8- $66k
Bat off 7- $29k

Some incredible prices in the auction last night...The HOF T206's especially (mostly 7's & 8's), went for insane numbers.

Two Mordecai Browns, an Evers and two Joe Tinkers, all PSA 8, each went over $20K. :eek:
