We’ve received a ton of positive comments on the new site but we’re definitely monitoring constructive feedback on things users would like to see added or things they’re having issues with so that we can incorporate those suggestions into future development. We’re not making any changes while this auction is live, but we’ll start a new round of updates immediately following its end to have them ready for February.

To answer a few popular questions, the circular button in the top right takes you to your My Account page where you can see bids, watchlists, change settings, etc.

All buyer invoices and consignor statements from 2004-2024 are migrated to the new site and linked as PDFs in the My Account section.

Searching is more dynamic than past versions but you can target specific items with quotation marks or exclude certain items with a minus sign. For example, if you don’t want to see anything with T206 in the title as you browse the auction, you could search -t206 to filter out those items.

Some Yahoo email users are experiencing delays in password reset email delivery. If you drop us an email letting us know you’re having trouble, we can set you a temporary password.

I have a verizon.net email address, and when I tried to reset my password on Sunday, it took about 4-5 hours before I received the email to reset it. I access my email through Yahoo so is that the behavior you are describing?

Gotta say I'm loving the new site as the auction starts to close.

Only thing missing are countdown clocks on the watchlist page...

Congrats to the winner of the postcard lot. You maxed me out with the last push, although my wife wanted to us to make one last bid. I bet that consignor is really happy tonight!

If you happen to see this, I would love a high res scan of the item we were chasing for my archives if possible. Congrats and great pickup!

But the photo can be found on John Donaldson’s MLB page

No mention of Mendez

Yes. It’s a great image, but I had never seen it as RPPC before the auction.

Thanks for the link Jamie! I would've bid higher on the lot but I wasn't positive it was Jose Mendez. Congrats to the winner!

Love that postcard above.

Question for the group. Is there a way to pay online in the new s/w? I think we were able to before. TIA...

edited- I picked up the phone and called. The payment is the same Zelle address, or other mailing address, as before....And there is no online way to pay...

I think the auction went off about as well as any new platform in recent memory. It will take a little getting used to.

Am I missing something or was the 20% fee not added into the final sales prices like all auction house do? Is REA not going to be tracked in VCP any longer because of the change over and sold price discrepancy? Thanks

Noticed an autobid glitch when bidding surpasses an increment increase threshold. E.g. when bidding goes from double to triple digits and the minimum increment increases from $5 to $10.

In my case another bidder was leading at $90, I was able to autobid $95, and $105 was the next available autobid displayed. I submitted as $105 was shown, but a $110 bid was placed on my behalf.

Did anyone else notice a similar issue?

The signup was pretty easy. No issues. It'll take a little used to navigating the site but like anything new, it'll grow on us.

Was happy to see all bidders are getting hit with taxes. This kind of evens it out a bit. I still don't understand why the govt has to tax old collectibles. If it were new retail stuff, I get it.

I opted out of texts as I don't own a cell phone.

The fixed-price marketplace will be interesting.

I'm looking forward to seeing this new feature.

Will all the historical auctions still be on the platform? I have several that I want to go through for research purposes and am worried that the history will be removed. Anyone know?

How soon before everything (or some things) migrate??

I'm wondering the same thing. I used the old UI to search. It wasn't a great search engine for the site, but it did provide lots of information. Not having the ability to search past REA auctions would just suck.

I agree.
