Heritage Last Night -- Records Everywhere!

Was shocked and happy to see the Gehrig RC blow up to nearly 11k. And I didn't even jump in on it, LOL!

Equally impressive was that nice PSA 5 Mantle 52T at 57k.

And I loved the PSA 7 52B Mick-- someone else clearly did as well, as it went for 10.1k-- WOW.

Of course that PSA 7 #311 that's been noted was a real loud shot heard across the hobby. Did not see that coming either.

there were some record lows though on some 1952 topps..the Wynn psa 8 sold for cheap ...the waterside properties did well as it were (mantle rare 52s etc)..but the regular stuff not so well 1952 topps....

Yeah previous auction record for 52 mantie psa 7 was $100,000 a few months ago. There was a private sale for 52 mantle psa 7 for $165,000 a few months ago too. But heritage auctions sale of 52 mantle psa 7 for $227,000 smashed previous records.
The 52 mantle psa 5 for $57,000 smashed records too.

people are making money on flipping them for sure....happened with houses as well..for awhile..

the 1952 topps lots went for pretty cheap...

Depresses me, a couple years ago a shop owner had a nicely centered 52T mantle psa 5 for 20K (probably would've taken less) and i thought that wasn't bad price at the time....fast forward to 2015 and now this

agree with patrick high end cards are getting to be like art work ,vintage cars.people are buying picassos damien hurst warhol,ferrari aston martin at auctions.then selling them months later at great profits.its good for the market and economy .id say there is more room with the cards.as they are cheaper investments compared to art and vintage cars.i see an upside.vintage toys ,comic books,vintage watches ive done well with lately ,sooo good for the cards octavio.
