Memory lane auction results last night

[uniship]

I just glanced at the results from last night. In my opinion the hobby is as hot as ever.

Didn’t it sell for a record or supposedly sold to Rally in 2021 from PwCC for $181,100..I think that guy or company was trying to fractionalize it idk where that went... mysteries to me.

That same auction house in 2021 during that time supposedly got $5,000 and $6,000 in 2021 for PSA 9 Henderson Rookies also alleged record sales for grade.

How many Henderson RC 9's and 10's are there? Was the "10" sold in Memory Lane the same as the card that sold for $181K? If so, that's a dump of about 25%. If it were a $1K card, 25% is minimal, but when looking at a 6 figure card that's a chunk of change.

For clarification, how much would a mid-grade 1933 Goudey set sell for? What about a low-mid grade T206 set (sans the big 4).

I hear these stories and just cannot understand the rational for paying up for a frigging number on a flip. It'd be interesting to compare the 9's and 10's side by side and say, hey, there's over $100K difference in those cards. It's frigging cardboard that's not even 50 years old.

From my reading the Henderson 10 is like a unicorn compared to a 9. I think a few other 80s cards are similar (maybe Ozzie Smith too).

More money than brains.

These are your choices:

A) 50 PSA 9 Rickey Henderson Rookies or
B) 1 PSA 10 Rickey Henderson Rookie

People with excess money really have no idea what they are doing.

What Jay said!

Hence why I don't play! Did grab a #181 ruth, but it sold for double the very next day. I had always wanted one, but prices just too good to say no. I can say I owned one!

Still upside in signed cards IMO as pops are low on many, more so the quality names and vintage autos
