Posted By: <b>Brent Butcher</b><p>I picked up an unopened 5 cent 1951 Topps Ringside wax pack graded GAI 7.5 for a fraction of what it should have went for. So I'm pretty happy.

Posted By: <b>Chad</b><p>Yeah, the prices were really low. I was pleasantly flabbergasted by the prices. There was only one round of the 5 minute rule, too. I expected the auction to go on for a lot longer than it did. I wish now I'd bid on more. Including that Luke Easter! <img src="/images/happy.gif" height=14 width=14><br /><br />--Chad

Posted By: <b>Daniel Bretta</b><p>Was it a lack of promotion or are people staying true to their word and boycotting Leland's for the Clemente items they had in their last auction? I don't care how good the deals are, I will never do business with Josh Evans.<br />

Posted By: <b>DJ</b><p>I forgot about it even though they send out 3-4 e-mails about it including the 5 HOURS LEFT e-mail.The prices were actually quite low and I had interest in a couple pieces. Hey, these items may end up in a future Gaynor auction...you never know.<br /><br />DJ<br /><br />

Posted By: <b>JimB</b><p>I have called and asked them for catalogs in the past and they have always been quite rude even though I have offered plenty of hobby referrences. So I am still not on their list.<br />JimB

Posted By: <b>andy becker</b><p>i had no idea there was an auction. this has happened in the past, so i did the same thing jimb did....call, gave referrences o' plenty....and got the same rude attitude.<br />so i was stupid enough to PAY for their last catalog. <br />i thought i had paid for a year, i guess not.<br />i'm clueless, but way smarter than lelands....

Posted By: <b>John_B_California</b><p>That '51 Ringside pack was a steal. It's worth at least 2 - 2 1/2 x as much.<br /><br />I would have gladly bought that mint '57 Topps football penny pack for under $150. Imagine how the consignors feel about now.

Posted By: <b>DJ</b><p>I think since it's a Net auction, Lelands owns the stuff. That's just a hunch. I don't think they accept consignments for their Internet auctions.<br /><br />DJ

Posted By: <b>Peter_Spaeth</b><p>I agree with the prior post by DJ. Having seen what I have seen and read what I have read about New Orleans, I find the comparison in poor taste even if intended humorously. It is not at all funny.

Posted By: <b>joe maples</b><p>Hi DJ, yes Lelands does accept consignments for their online Fredo auctions. I was in contact with them last week and they told me they would put some of my items in their catalog auction and lesser value items in the Fredo auction.

Posted By: <b>joe maples</b><p>Lelands next catalog auction is the 1st week of December, items have to be in Lelands hands by October 15. Mastro also has a catalog auction in December, items to Mastro about the same time. Mastro will have some of the Frank Nagy collection in the December auction. Should be some nice cards.<br /><br />Joe

Posted By: <b>DJ</b><p>Nick, it's truly old news. Don't think that's the reason why no one bid heavy this time around. I think it's because I'm the only one that got the e-mail and I wasn't even in. Looking at my inbox, I got five e-mails about this auction including four over the last three days and one announcing that it was up. <br /><br />DJ

But - WOW! I simply cannot believe the comment about New Orleans. Not only was that in bad taste, it is probably the WORST statement I have ever read on this board - period!!!!! I am truly appalled!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Posted By: <b>leon</b><p>Good point..I think I will. I don't really care for the comment Adam made either but let it go because if people want to put their proverbial foot in their mouth who am I to stop them? It is a vintage baseball card board and I do have a little moderator power ... let's get back to cards. I agree with 97% of what Adam says. This comment was just not in good taste though. regards
