REA Encore Auction Wins.

[iwantitiwinit]

I was lucky enough to win both T206 Titus at what I thought were great prices. An Old Mill which I needed for my back run and a higher graded SGC 5.5

Was able to upgrade my Lipe. Missed out on the Lajoie w/bat old mill in the extended bidding

If you happened to upgrade from a PSA 2 Lipe and are looking to sell it, feel free to PM me. One of the last 19 I need for 520.

thanks!

Won the T205's of Baker and Collins.
How about that SGC T206 Walsh closing at $3,240 with 74 bidders. Impressive.

Missed on the 1914 Cracker Jack Zack Wheat

Watched that Cobb green Old Mill climb and climb, what a card!

One card I was chasing got out of my price range and then I fell asleep…

Tell me about it! I stayed with that one right to the end… I wish I had dumped another C-note (but who knows - maybe the buyer would have still lapped me on it!)

I haven't been sleeping well so went to bed early last night.
I was up on four items when I went to bed, nothing I couldn't live without.
I woke up this morning having won a single 1979 Topps baseball cello pack graded PSA 9 for a decent price.

Continued my run of hoarding 71 Bazooka numbereds. Near set with 45 of 48 - just missing the last 3, which also happen to be 3 of the most valuable.

As luck would have it, during the heat of battle in extended bidding (after we had both run it up a bit) I got a text last night from a fellow board member, and discovered we were both bidding on this lot.

[BeanTown]

Super happy to win this and I’m sure boxing fans know more about this historic fight. Jack Johnson lost the championship to Jess Willard in 1915 in a fight in Cuba. The 37-year-old champion tired and was knocked out in the 26th round. The 26th round!!!!!!! Rumors suggest that Johnson threw the fight as a concession to authorities in a bid to return home.

Bidding on the D310s was pretty aggressive after the 15 minute countdown started. Lost out of most lots but did pick up this nice blank-backed LaLonge with the green tint -

If anyone has any cards with the "Pacific Coast Biscuit" or "Aldon Candy" stamps on the backs, I'd be interested in purchasing some!!

Nothing for me in this auction, but I am quite pleased with the overall results of the cards I consigned, including a 1948 Topps Magic card of Ty Cobb, of which there were 2 such cards in this auction. I think that most savvy collectors agree that one should buy the card, and not the slab - i.e., a slightly-higher-graded card with poor eye appeal should sell for less than a slightly-lower-graded card with great eye appeal. Check out what these two 1948 Topps Magic cards of Cobb sold for, and guess which of these cards was my consignment (sigh!):

Wow- that OM green cobb for 18K!!!
I was bidding on the Demmitt St Louis and Ohara St Louis.
Should of just went for the Auth/Demmitt instead, as for the O'hara, yeah it was cleaned, but it got some good money too!
In the end=Empty

Not a huge thing but I got a 66 T Clemente PSA 6 at 120, with shipping and all it was about 165. It’s been hovering closer to 200. That finishes my 66 upgrade with everything 6 or above including 7s on Mantle, Koufax and Mays and many highs, and 8s on McCovey and Williams. Looks to me like prices on 60s non-Mantle and Mays stars are receding a bit.

Sorry Val, I'm guessing yours was the SGC 3? It was obviously the MUCH nicer of the two (beautiful contrast!), but the the value of the PSA plastic is strong

Yes, Rob, my Cobb was the SGC 3 with the strong image, and thanks for your kind words. I simply can't comprehend why anyone would pay more for the PSA 4 with the very weak image.

Congrats Brian! I won 19 of the D310s but couldn’t get the LaLonge. I had no idea it was you bidding or I would have backed off and saved you some money. I gave up because I figured the guy after LaLonge was a blank back collector who would pay any price. It’s a nice card.

Picked up this Bergen EPDG for my Brooklyn collection…

That Old Mill is a nice price for a rarer back! Nice pickups.

You're compiling a good collection of Titus...you won my PSA 1.5 Titus on ebay last week as well.

[Oscar_Stanage]

very happy with this one. Last time I bought a T206, a PSA 2 common back Walsh was this price.

[paul]

Nothing on the pre-war front for me. But I did manage to overpay for a 1955 Topps Doubleheader Jackie Robinson and a 1963 Kahn's Clemente. I'm still happy to win them both.
