Bill,
FWIW, I couldn't agree more.
With regards to tickets that originated from my buddy Dan Busby, there were some great lots in this auction.
The biggest steal was the lot that had 71 All Star tickets from 1935- Present.
At an average of $40, that was CRAZY and someone got a great deal!!
That particular collection took years to assemble, and the break-up value is worth many times that amount.
