Picked up a t207 Bris Lord (incorrectly labeled by SGC as Harry), a T201 (love this set) Lapp/Barry from the Lionel Carter collection, and you can't go wrong with HOFer George Sisler. Great auction, I also like the ending style!

easily distracted..
 

Got distracted last night, and turned around and the lots were closed I wanted!
The Walsh t206 was beautiful and went for less than I thought it would. Congrats to the winner!

An Open Recommendation For B&L Auctions
 

I consigned nearly two dozen lots to B&L Auctions this time around, and I cannot be more pleased with the outcome. I found the customer service to be outstanding from my initial inquiry through auction's end. I literally put everything I wanted to consign in a huge box and then Scott prepared 23 individual lots based on what he thought would maximize the potential value of my consignment. While a handful of lots closed somewhat below where I had hoped, which is to be expected in any auction, most closed at or meaningfully above my own expectations.

I also do not think I was particularly affected by the closing practices of the auction. There was a surprising amount of activity in the 48 hours leading up to extended bidding, much of which I would hazard to guess would not have occurred if bidders could have delayed bidding into the night as a strategy. Stated another way -- if you were genuinely interested in an item, you had to put up or shut up right away, or risk losing the item.

Finally, I think it speaks volumes that the moderator of this site is a named partner in this endeavor and does not overly promote the auction in banner ads or posts or the like. Including the lowest BP in the industry, there is a real effort here to promote a collector-driven auction without any of the typical concerns we often see raised about auction houses.

Anyway, I know I'm preaching to the choir, but B&L Auctions has got it figured out. Good work, gentlemen! Bravo.

One point I want to make
 

And this is good for both EBay and other auctions. If you have a max bid in mind; just go ahead and make that bid, that way you are not subject to "Oh I forgt" --- or my snipe did not work on time.

If there is a bid you want to make, make it and forget about it. You'll sleep better on auction night and perhaps even some EBay sellers won't pull auctions when they do not receive any bids.

I put in my bids, and watch the auction. And in this auction I did win one of my lots under my max.

All:

The way they end the auction is the most creative and classiest of all the auctions I've bid on.
If the lot has no or one bid on it, it closes, it can't get much better than that.

thanks again & again,

Thanks guys--great auction!

I received my winnings today; the same day my check was deposited. Fantastic service scott and Leon. Thank you for a pleasant transaction.

Just got mine today too. I paid by personal check, so figured the item would be held a week or so for the check to clear... I figured wrong. Great service B&L!

Same here w/ me. Rec'd today & packaged well. Professionally done!
