Card Collecting Chagrin- Auction Observations
 
Posted By: <b>Bob</b><p>Does anyone else ever get that blue feeling when you run across a card or set in an auction which used to belong to you? Don't even consider the fact that the cards are selling for a ton more than when you sold them, instead, look at the cards as old friends you deserted along the collecting highway. In the Mastro auction I see the Kotton Matty which I believe is the same one I sold on ebay several years ago and the T213-3 Coupon Series 3 complete set which I believe is the set I sold to Bill Mastro many, many years ago (early 80's). <br />Kinda sad to see those old friends....

Card Collecting Chagrin- Auction Observations
 
Posted By: <b>John S</b><p>I would be willing to venture that at least 50% of the material being sold in auctions in the last five years has had at least two owners in that time period. Crazy prices and increased demand have prompted many collectors to sell portions of their collections that they never imagined parting with.
