You too, Rob. I hope you get what you're bidding on. :)

Cobb T206/Ty Cobb back hits $100K mark!
 

So far, so good. Check out the T206 Cobb with the Ty Cobb back!!!

My biggest (and happiest) surprise is the PSA 4 e90-2 Wags busting out to 9600 right now with the juice. I adore this card and am bummed to be out of the bidding, but also happy for the card itself. I always thought it should break out one day and gain even more stature than it has. I had hopes of getting a few at one point, but as Austin Powers would say, "That train has sailed." Will be happy now with my one and only example.

Already gave up on the only two I was going after. Thought it was gonna finally be a realistic closing night as I went WAY beyond what they would sell anywhere else......then the "REAness" reared it's head yet again :rolleyes:

REAness. I love that. I read it like the REALNESS, LOL. Good stuff.

Rob, it's up to $130k now. Nice!

McGreachery Old Judge now at $110k, just over $130k after buyers premium. This is the highest auction price I've seen for an OJ although an Anson in Uniform would easily eclipse it.

Fair warning...We do not anticipate the auction to continue beyond 5 AM EST (15 minutes from now). This is the absolute LAST CALL for bidding! The auction will close without notice! We don’t want anyone who is planning to bid to be shut out! We recommend bidders leave maximum left bids utilizing Robert Edward Auctions’ “Honest Auto-Bid” system to avoid disappointment.

Thank you for your participation!

Did it just close or did it crash, the site is not responding?

I think Rob pulled the plug on the server. He really should let Brian turn off the software.

REA Auctions
 

Brian,

I cannot get in to bid??? Receiving network error messages. Is it closed???

Joe T.

Momentary outage in some areas....back up now but still closing imminently.

Now it appears to be over. correct?

Closing bell.

Is REA closing tonight?

All done. Thank you to all who bought, sold, and just watched the auction unfold.

Thank you again!

Thanks, Brian. Another great auction comes to an end.....

Another fun night in the chat, congrats on a great auction guys.

Great auction, glad I was able to win a couple of lots.

Great auction guys!

Woke up to see I had won two lots. A bit shocked as bargains were not a-plenty in this one.

Me too (won two lots), although neither were bargains. That's okay, both are likely "one-of-a-kind" pre-rookie cabinets, so I can't complain!!

Received the dreaded "Outbid Notice" email at 5:05am on the only lot I was going for :( :( :( :(

The D304 Cobb went as nuts as the e90-2 Wags. That Cobb was another card I was rooting for. Congrats to the winners.

Really annoyed, woke up this morning to find out I had been outbid on the only lot I was going for. I'd put in an auto bid that was really quite high, I had been certain it would hold up. Such is REA I guess :)

Rob? Not this Rob. I was in bed sleeping. :o

Outbid on two lots. :(

The sun still came up this morning however.

5AM or later
 

Looks like most of us go to bed and get up to see if we won. ( I lost out overnight). I'm wondering who the hardcore folks are that stick it out until the wee hours. OR are there a horde of buyers in Asia/Australia?

at least some of you guys got to go to bed winning...i went to bed out bid on all 3 of my items :mad:

the juice and auto-bid increments really took me out of the game

I feel like I was a winner. Received my catalog Saturday.

If you look at the 'recent bids' list, noting the times of the bids and when the 'fair warning' and 'end is eminent' emails went out, you'll see that a lot of people lost out on some really huge items because of bids that were thrown in after the auction very well could have ended. There really isn't too much rhyme or reason to it.

I showed the above to my girlfriend and her assessment was immediately that a lot of those bidders were drinking.

Elephants, Beatles, and Stooges.
