Default What's your most shrewd pick-up ever?

Posted By: Josh K.

Ive had three that stand out:

An e93 SGC 40 Wagner for 900 last year. I still own mine, but the most recent sgc 40 e93 wagner on ebay sold for $2325;

This lot of 7 e93s (incl. Joss, Lajoie, Waddell, Tinker) from an auction house for around $275 (with one or two exceptions, most were very presentable despite receiving low technical grades). As Ive upgraded, Ive sold off the dooin, lajoie, tinker and waddell for close to $550 alone):


Finally, I won this lot for about $75. After carefully removing all of the cards from the scrap book, I sold most of the commons ungraded for around $20 each; the schang was graded an sgc 80 and then sold for about $85; and the Hoyt graded an sgc 60 and remains in my collection.



(I found out later that one of the blank spots contained a ruth that the seller sold separately - unfortunately, b/c he didnt soak it off the page, he damaged the card during the removal).
