I have dealt with roomn8 before and evrything was smooth, but the high reserve and the almost equally high bids are strange to say the least. I haven't seen any 1922's sell for those types of prices previously.
In the past when I have seen situations like this, I have thought maybe that he really doesn't want to sell them (yet), but would like to give the appearance that the set is in really high demand (in order to reap potential benefits upon a later date with a relist). Obviously though that would be pure speculation, and as I said before I have only had smooth transactions with them in the past.
I have a PSA 7 Dana Fillingim, maybe I will list it later and see if I can get 1/5th what his 5.5 is going for (nearly $1000).
