Heritage Wins

[sportscardpete]

Anyone win any lots? I love the lot-by-lot closing.

I won this.. I had my eye on the d359 lot but unfortunately someone kept bidding me up for the nadja lot, so I just had the money for this -

On a side note - I drank coffee preparing for a late evening; what to do now?!

Was reeaally hoping the t207 group of 95 would slip through the cracks but was not to be the case. I put down 10k on it but someone bid 15k not counting BP.

However, I did come away with a win I was really happy about - the group of 1912 8 Wunc strip cards including Wagner, Young and two uncatalogued cards. Looking forward to finding out a bit more about these!

I was the high bidder the entire final week on the Ruth Authentic RC until a few hours before extended bidding began last night. I went as high as $13K+ with juice but just didn't have the funds to go any higher. Of course, only one bid topped me and it sold for $14K+ with juice. I figure this was probably my only chance to ever own a presentable Ruth RC in today's market. Very frustrating to come so close but I guess close only counts in horseshoes, huh.......

Congrats Brian and Pete...2 awesome lots!!!!!! Pete...there can't be many e104-II sets out there?

[margoaepi]

I picked up these two for what I thought were very good prices. I thought a lot of items went pretty low last night, but obviously not the ones you guys are describing above.

Thanks Pete! I don't think they are that hard, but I haven't seen even one out there... It's probably because they aren't collected that much. This definitely puts me 2 cards away!

Phil, that sucks to hear. I was thinking the same thing as you as being able to pickup a nice Ruth RC for a decent price but after it went over 10 I shifted my focus to other lots. It was a very Nice Ruth.

I can't believe how cheap some of the t206s went for....

Love the card. Can't wait to have it in my hands.

[bcbgcbrcb]

Great pick-ups on the Cobbs, Dan. Congrats!

[birdman42]

Dan,

I've never seen that Detroit Steel Tube PC before. What a great image. At 21, Cobb already looks like a mean dude. In that pic, he looks just like Steve McQueen, who would have been the perfect person to play Cobb on film.

Thank You everyone! I am very happy with the ending prices as I thought I was going to have to pay more for them,

When I 1st saw the image on that Detroit Steel Tube, I had to have it. Its such a great image (one that I've never seen before) from early on in his career and the fact that its rare made it even more intriguing.

You beat me on the Cobb signed rookie, congrats!
Just curious, how high would you have gone

[ullmandds]

I forgot about the auction or I'd have bid on that dietsche signed cobb...honestly I'd have thought it'd sell closer to 8-10K?!

Dan, that's the best prewar signed card I've ever seen.

[sycks22]

I got swamped

[brass_rat]

I picked up the M116 blue set...was glad to get it, but had to go higher than I thought...anyways, I love these cards!

Great looking set Steve. Those cards look awesome.
The website says that you are proactively accepting offers to sell it? I buy lots to resell and have no issue with that but was your initial intention, to flip it? Once again, no issue at all.....just curious. (and did I mention that is one heckuva beautiful subset?)

Pete did you win the McLean? I got blown out on the 6 Black Swamp Find cards I went after. I thought I was going to win that E98 Kling :-(
