REA is up!
 

There goes my shot at billing anything this afternoon...:)

Thanks for the heads-up!

Cheers,
Blair

Holy SH$T...that's quite an auction!!!

Unglaublich.

Lots of great stuff!

Impressive, to say the least. I must get over what it is that I will not win asap.

pretty sexay...at least scarlett johansson hot!

edit: over/under on the extended bidding period lasting well into monday with the incredible number of goodies?

very impressive as usual. Can't wait to receive the catalog.

Bittersweet day for me. I can't have everything or even most everything I want. And I've already received my first outbid notice.

First of all, wow.

Secondly, I sent them an email maybe 20 minutes ago pointing out that the year given for a couple of Obaks was incorrect and they've already made the correction. Top notch.

i've placed initial bids on 587 lots...if i go 1/587 i'll be happy :cool:

I just outbid Quan on 423 lots.

I just outbid Quan on 164 lots.

I think every single card on my want list is in this auction.. unreal stuff...

The Ruth bat... to me, that would be the dream item.... absolutely stunning!


come on lottery gods come on!!!!!!

anthony i'm getting outbid notice emails popping up left and right...at least i can pretend they're important work emails!

rob is really making a mockery of the pop report...he seemingly has multiples of every drool-inducing cards in the hobby.

He's really taking bids already. I think he's like ten days early!

One of my favorite pastimes is to bid on T206 Wagners early and take a screen shot that says I am the high bidder!

i didn't know you or anthony are also into those turkish actresses cabinets also...otherwise i would've stayed away.

If I collect all 25 I get to meet the Aga Khan.

REA is up!
 

I was thinking we had to wait for the catalogs, always look forward to this auction.

Jimmy

Can not wait for the catalog
 

Glad Rob realizes the value of making sure everyone who wants a catalog can get it (Examples to the contrary Bill Goodwin, SCP, Heritage, etc)

Regards
Rich

Goodwin gives out free catalogs as far as I know... now, Hunt and Heritage do indeed charge for theirs, which I can't say I understand; the one time I got Heritage to ship me a comped catalog, I bought a $6k card that I didn't see when browsing their web site and only saw in the catalog.

As a possible consignor in the future, I'm glad Rob realizes the value of not banning aggressive bidders who always pay within a day or two after the auction ends (Examples to the contrary ... oh, never mind.)

Everything's about you, isn't it?


LOL!

This stuff represents the cream of the crop, and is a great reference and collectible in itself. I am looking forward to my catalog also.

Me, Sheff and all the folks I've chased away.

That California League card is crazy. $100,000 opening bid? Any guesses on what it sells for? More than the Wagner?

Dang, that is some nasty card porn for us credit card shoppers!
Bob

Incredible.

Thanks for the heads up Jeff.

Frank

I think it's pretty amusing that the Wagner doesn't even have the highest opening bid among baseball cards.

The Wagner will still sell for far more than the N172 Doyle.

Lot 1594 will make a great addition to my tobacco card collection...I'm just wondering where (and how) to display it. :p

No bid yet on Barack Obama's old Jeep Cherokee.

T207s ?!?!?!
 

Im simply speechless by the quality of T207s in this auction. And that says a LOT !!

-Scott

I just spent about 1 hour glancing and have over $80K in cards in the watchlist. Man the wife is going to be pissed when she sees all what I bid on.

Scott I agree I looked at the t207's and they are some of the best I have ever seen in one area at a time. A magnificent auction to say the least.

I love the T210 Stengel but why did PSA label it "Stengal" when his name is clearly spelled Stengel on the front of the card ? I was wondering --would PSA correct the label?

Let's see:

4 T206 StL Demmitts
5 T206 StL O'Haras
5 T206 Magie errors
4 T206 Planks
1 T206 Wagner

Not to mention EVERYTHING else!!!!!

I need a sugar mama!!!!!!!!!!

Also, that's 5! T206 Planks up for auction within the next month (Heritage has one also)

:eek:
Steve

Bill:

I'm sure that they will if you pay the reholdering fee.............

There are A LOT of T206's in this auction. You would think something might fall through the cracks but I doubt it.

Hey, I was looking for an original Creighton photo and the Merkle ball. Glad I could find them both in one place.

T206 lot with cy young miscut lot 284
 

I have seen and owned a few T206 miscuts in my day... but that one takes the cake! What a strange card.

Plank
 

The PSA authentic Plank, with the Sweet Caporal 150 back is one of the nicest Plank's I have ever seen.

It never fails, whenever a nice looking T204 Plank or Mordecai Brown come up for auction, they are always part of the whole set, which I won't be able to afford.

Tony

I get a free catalog from Hunts every month.

That Plank is mine....I didn't plan on flipping it so quickly, but I can't resist Rob Lifson's charm. Our arrangement is too good to pass up!

Matt; I KNOW Bill for many many years; we have a lot of mutual friends; and for whatever reason I've never been on his mailing list. And yet; he's one of the nicest people in person I've ever met in the hobby. Couple of years ago; I ended up setting up at the National next to him; and because of the very short notice; he locked up all the "valuable cards" I had at the table each night. And made sure everytning was perfect. Nice man; just can't get the freakin catalogs :)

Rich

Edited to say -- Bill PM'd me this morning and promised I would be receiving all his catalogs in the future :)

The best part about the card is it has no name or other part of a card on it. Could be a very neat single.

t206 young miscut
 

Whoever wins that lot with the young miscut, i want it!!

please email me!!!

George/Andrew

This auction is awesome!!!!!!!!

Johnny

Wow...they should have listed that as a single lot.

Too bad about Walter's tobacco bath:
