PWCC Auctions this evening

[ullmandds]

Another week...more insane PWCC results!!!!! New records on lots of cards!

e121 ruth holding ball over 13K...sanellas over 1K in collector grade.

Im sitting here watching auctions end...what's up with the psa 6 us caramel gehrig? Looks like a major blemish to the left of his head? 28K????

And the JJ Sporting News...the edges look like they are fraying? Almost 18K?

$3,300 for a PSA 5 OM Collins. I guess there is no end in sight.

[Oscar_Stanage]

don't worry, you'll get another chance.
the same cards will now come out of the Vault, at a 20% increase of course. Who owns them? no one knows... when you look back, these will be local maxima.

Possible explanation for the Gehrig? https://allvintagecards.com/lou-gehr...el-investment/

I had a bid planned on a card tonight that would have exceeded the winning bid of the last card they sold at the same grade by a good margin. I didn’t even get a chance to place it. Woe is me.

I was like Lee Westwood on the bat on Tinker EPDG, I gave it my best effort, but could only manage 2nd place. I was 3rd underbidder on the bat off. Nice cards for the grade, I thought. I snagged a nice e106 Bescher for a nice price. I'm still looking at the 50's cards, but the pops are so high for post-war cards, I always feel like I can bid on another tomorrow.

Sorry to hear that. Not an easy get.

I was thrilled to get the bat off Tinker but wasn’t thrilled with the price at all......haha.

I was considering the Collins OM early on but damn it wasn't that nice, also watching a few 32 Caramels as they sailed on by, feels to me like there's a couple collectors currently going after that set. Thankfully, I was fortunate enough to pick up a nice 14CJ tonight.

It was an impressive auction. Lots of T cards. I was the underbidder on the T-227 Baker, i hope it went to a net54 home. I was well below the underbidder on 3 or 4 others.

I still believe you can find some bargains if you are looking at less mainstream issues and/or lower grade cards. I was very happy picking up the m110 Cobb. Yes it has some condition issues, but considering the exact card sold for just $200 less 2 years ago and the way Cobbs have been lately, I think the price was very fair.

The last card they sold was the exact same card as tonight. I also passed because of the surface issues.

The 52 Mantle 1.5 for 63k was an impressive result. Interesting that it sold for 17k more than the off center 2.5 in the same auction. Nice to see collectors stepping up for premium eye appeal for the grade.

Don't tell me that!!! That makes me hate giving up on my SGC 2 at $4,000.
