I won the V100 near set of 154. I had been working on a V100 HOFer run and this lot had the last 9 cards I needed; as anyone who has ever tried to track down a card form this set knows, they are not easy to come by and I figured I'd just go for the lot instead of waiting years for the other 9 cards to show up; I was the under-bidder on the Ruth last time it surfaced 2 or 3 years ago. The other 145 will be up for sale.

Still trying to decide how to sell them - I'm not excited about 145 separate transactions and the legwork that goes along with that; at the same time, the hammer price clearly suffered as a result of it being sold a group - I know Bruce K paid a lot more to put the group together.
