Default Getting "deals" in Big Auctions??

Posted By: Tom Boblitt

I bought a LOT of stuff out of those old Mastro & Steinbach or whatever online auctions. I bought a lot of Muhammad Ali Closed Circuit TV tickets that was about 60 of them from a couple different fights for like $40 or something. They all sold for $10 or more. Also a LOT of 1933 Goudey's--probably close to 100 or more in lots of like 6-10 of different teams. They were all very nice in about EX condition. But back then you could still buy stuff like that and do well by re-selling. Also, the baseball auction business, at that time, was still largely call-in type activity. The net was just catching on. Same thing as the Amazon/Sotheby's Halper section. Lots of items from that sale too........

Ah.....the good old days.......
