Was thinking the same thing, was in on a few but didn't get any, went to bed late night and lost out on one of last items bid on.

But great pick ups everyone, the vintage market does not seem to be slowing down.

I'm always looking for 1916 M101s of WaJo with tough backs - hint! hint!

Wow, Val, gorgeous card and major league pickup!

Congratulations to the winners. I thought I was seriously bidding on a few of the post war regional and oddball sets. I was done by Sunday afternoon. Just couldn't make myself go higher based on some of my recent purchases.

I think there were one or two lots where the final bid without BP was close to what I would've paid - but the BP adds a lot where the bidding was.

On to some other auctions closing soon. :)

This was the first REA auction that I didn't think was insane at the end. The stuff I had bid on was over soon after 11. I don't know if it was because of all the other auctions going on or people were being conservative because of economic uncertainty. I am still very optimistic about the market going up, but this was the first sign of any weakness. Just my view from how crazy REA has been for me the last ~7 years.

I think it’s a function of the new lot by lot closing procedures, people are adjusting and sanity is prevailing, you can finish bidding on most lots early.

You couldn't be any more wrong. As a consignor, the prices were OUTSTANDING!!!

You both may be right. My impression is that there was an odd mix of soft and very strong prices.

For ones saying prices were down I was blown away by this price!!!

For a Ex-Mt Set with only 4 Cards Graded !!!

With the stars coming down in 6-8 Grades in 65 Topps I have no idea how this went this high.

I picked up 3 Cubs Plow Boys at 25% below where they traded 5 years ago, so I was pretty happy…

Green Cobb from REA arrived today. I'd like to think I got it at a reasonable (or at least not unreasonable) price.
