That would be me, Jamie! (BTW, congrats to you on the nice Clarkson.)

I placed 18 bids on those OJs last night and lost on 16 of them. On some I was close. On others I got completely blown away.

I was thrilled to land the Robinson for the price (I still had some room in my top bid). I wanted to add an OJ Robinson, and that pose was my favorite. Less often seen, I think, than the hands head high.

The other one I got was Seward for a fairly nice price:
