Posted By: <b>Brian E.</b><p>Mine hasn't arrived yet! I had to pay $75 for their catalogues this year <br /><br />Brian E.

Mastronet Wow!
 

Posted By: <b>barrysloate</b><p>I had trouble carrying the box with the catalogs up the stairs. It is chock full of stuff.

Mastronet Wow!
 

Posted By: <b>ramram</b><p>Mine has shown up yet.

Mastronet Wow!
 

Posted By: <b>davidcycleback</b><p>Barry, it takes an 'old-timer' to understand the catalogs and a newbie to lift them. Now you know why movie geniuses have young assistants.

Mastronet Wow!
 

Posted By: <b>warshawlaw</b><p>There were better cards in it than I expected. Nice to be surprised. <br /><br />Edited to say:<br /><br />Of course, the reason I was surprised is because (once again) someone doesn't know common postwar Exhibit boxing cards from rare 1930s Exhibit boxing cards. I sense a need for a consultancy... <img src="/images/happy.gif" height=14 width=14>

Posted By: <b>Brian E.</b><p>Since my catalogue hasn't arrived yet....<br /><br />What Cobb cards are in it? Specifically, Ts &Es b/w 1908-1915? I think my pal Wes has been fundraising lately and looking for a Cobbie! <br /><br />thanks<br /><br />Brian E.

Posted By: <b>Jim Manos</b><p>I consigned lot #'s 936, 1362, 1837, 2179, and 2250. I hope they do well?? Any comments??

Mastronet Wow!
 

Posted By: <b>dstudeba</b><p>Jim - That Oaks book is neat, I just think the description is interesting in that at the beginning they say it is uncatalogued, and at the end they say it is an important set.<br /><br />"An incredibly rare complete set of 24 uncatalogued 1938 Oakland Oaks player stamps, ......... An important set that is missing from virtually all advanced collections!" <br />

Mastronet Wow!
 

Posted By: <b>Jim Manos</b><p>what do you think of the Hoy pin or the Harvard nine, or what about the Mullane Will. Interesting piece's....

Mastronet Wow!
 

Posted By: <b>Julie Vognar</b><p>Is it the Yeakley pin, or did someone else find one...gosh, a Hoy thing I'll never have...hope someone gets it who will appreciate it!

Mastronet Wow!
 

Posted By: <b>R. D. Cook</b><p>I applaud Jim's decision to disclose his consignments in a direct and transparent way.<br /><br />I'm tired of the usual auction season hidden agenda "hyping" threads from one of our board regulars.<br /><br />Guess it's a bit early in the game or maybe he didn't consign a single Old Judge/KB/GQ this time around.<br /><br />We'll see!<br />

Mastronet Wow!
 

Posted By: <b>Chris Bland</b><p>Anyone know when the auction will be available online?<br /><br />Thanks<br /><br />Chris

Posted By: <b>Richard</b><p>Nadda in San Jose, CA<br /><br />I called them yesterday and they said that they are shipping out today (for the pee-ons like me).

Mastronet Wow!
 

Posted By: <b>Alan</b><p>Pardon my stupidity, but don't they ship the catalog to everyone at the same time ? How do some get the catalog extra early ?

Mastronet Wow!
 

Posted By: <b>AParks</b><p>Near Orlando FL -- still nope.

Posted By: <b>pete ullman</b><p>Wow...nice stuff...BUT...I don't understand why Nagy had a trimmed Plank. The story given doesn't make sense...or explain why he had a trimmed Plank. Am I a moron?<br /><br />pete in mn

Mastronet Wow!
 

Posted By: <b>Harry Wallace (HW)</b><p>The description says that the card was obtained from Fred McKie in a trade. <br /><br />Fred McKie is a regular show walker at Fort Washington. I am sure that he could expound on the details of the trade.<br /><br />Still have not received my catalog - I hate searching everything online.

Mastronet Wow!
 

Posted By: <b>JimB</b><p>Incredible stuff! That trimmed Plank story did make sense to me either.<br />JimB

Mastronet Wow!
 

Posted By: <b>MW</b><p>I think the trimmed Plank is the replacement card. The one that Nagy sold was a higher grade.

Mastronet Wow!
 

Posted By: <b>Bruce Babcock</b><p>I put together a watch list of 60. It's a good thing I had fun doing it because I'll never own any of them.

Mastronet Wow!
 

Posted By: <b>Cat</b><p>There seemed to be a paragraph that got edited out in the story. I also believe that he gave up the higher grade card with the assumption that he could find a replacement some day, but only found the trimmed version as a replacement. But they kind of left us on the edge without explaining the history of this card. Who really cares abouit the one "he used to have."

Mastronet Wow!
 

Posted By: <b>Dan Koteles</b><p>you'll probavly get 45 0f the 60. Yes I recieved mine today ,WOW is right !!!!....I have 7 lots and hope for a min-<br />imum of 2 . Good luck to all.

Mastronet Wow!

Mastronet Wow!
 

Posted By: <b>Cat</b><p>I had a watch list of 15 and have now chiseled it down to nine, but I am only going to bid like a maniac on one card this time (or possibly 2).<br /><br />I noticed that the Joe Jackson Sporting News card is identified as a m101-5 in the title but in reality is a m101-4 and states such in the SGC grade.

Mastronet Wow!
 

Posted By: <b>warshawlaw</b><p>I'll get nothing and like it <img src="/images/wink.gif" height=14 width=14>

Mastronet Wow!
 

Posted By: <b>Harry Wallace (HW)</b><p>It is obviously a M101-4 since it is number 87. He is number 86 in the M101-5 set.

Posted By: <b>cmoking</b><p>I have informed my wife that we will be officially broke after the Mastronet auction. She was not pleased.

Mastronet Wow!
 

Posted By: <b>barrysloate</b><p>Does anyone ever calculate the amount of time they put in to analyze and evaluate the lots they want and divide it by the number of lots they actually win?

Mastronet Wow!
 

Posted By: <b>leon</b><p>First thing I do is flip through all of the card categories real fast. If I see something I "need" then I go "oh crap" to myself. Because I know I will most likely end up spending a lot of money (for me) or have serious anxiety if I don't. If there is nothing I "need", which I don't think there is this time, then I take a breath and figure out what I "want". But if there's nothing I need I know I might not "have" to spend money.....GREAT auction as usual. regards

Mastronet Wow!
 

Posted By: <b>Cat</b><p>I still haven't received a catalog and I have bought from them in each of the last three auctions. <br /><br />On further thought, according to the UPS tracking info my purchases from the last auction are suppose to arrive tomorrow, so perhaps they killed two birds with one stone and put my catalog in with my cards.

Mastronet Wow!
 

Posted By: <b>gary nuchereno</b><p>I do the same as Leon, I look to see if there is a must have in the catalog and breathe a sigh of relief if nothing fits in that category. Then I wait for the house to be quiet<br />no kids, no wife, no dog, (well actually the dog can stay) and crack a few Michelob lights and take my time going over each lot. I dont collect bats, autographs or uniforms so I check out the vintage ones but pass over the post WWII stuff. I mark down lots I am interested in and then check my various wantlists to see what I want to bid on. I got<br />superior, Mastro and sothebys catalogs all on the same day! Thats a great day!

Mastronet Wow!
 

Posted By: <b>Anthony</b><p>Nothing in L.A. yet, although I did get out bid on every one of the 22 lots I bid on this morning. I did get my lots from the last auction last week.

Mastronet Wow!
 

Posted By: <b>barrysloate</b><p>Michelob light! You need a good dark beer to get through one of those catalogs. Helps numb the pain when you realize you can't really win anything.

Mastronet Wow!
 

Posted By: <b>tbob</b><p>2 packages of cards, Mastro, Hunt's, Superior, Gray Flannel and Sotheby's catalogues all arriving the same day. The postman was cursing under his breath <img src="/images/happy.gif" height=14 width=14>
