Eric BrehmMaybe since that auction was a Live Auction the results aren't available to be gathered electronically?
... but then why would the $2.8M Gretzky PSA 8 show up in the data since that was a private sale, albeit one where the selling price was publicized.
Also the buyer's premium for the SGC 40 T206 Wagner last year was 13%, not 18%, so the total sales price (based on the hammer price of $700K) should be $791K, not $826K. A 13% buyer's premium was applied to winning bids delivered live or by phone during the Philip Weiss floor auction, and the higher 18% rate applied to items won via eBay live bidding only.
Also I think Memory Lane sold a PSA 10 1951 Bowman Mantle card recently, that they publicized in some of their ads, and I don't remember the exact price, but I bet it cracks the Top 10 if it is included.
