Default Mastro Results: Proof of Shilling or other factors at play?
Posted By: JimB

I think Mastro got low totals in the last auction because the material was weak. I did not find the prices realized weak on the lots I was watching. T206s seemed fine. PSA bat on Cobb went for around 30k! Others were strong too. I suppose Mastro is sort of dividing their August premier auction into two: the live event at the National, and the August catalog auction. Combined, they grossed over 10 million. I would still say it was a weak offering by Mastro standards, but c'est la vie. Maybe it was just that there was not much I was particularly interested in pursuing.
