They were a single lot on Ebay, at what I thought was a very good price. The seller also had a larger lot of regular blankbacks. My wife and I discussed it like with any big purchase and she convinced me to only buy the southern leaguers, and maybe approach them about buying the others if they hadn't sold. She was suspicious of so many in one lot.
I bought the SLs, and they were nice, I messaged the seller as the other lot hadn't sold, and they never responded, my first offer was along the lines of "I've come into a bit more money, if these are still available I would buy them at your asking price" Figuring that would be good since they'd had no bids at all, and if not at least it wasn't a crazy lowball offer and if they wanted more I would probably have gone with it as long as it wasn't completely crazy.

Someday, I'll have to organize my file of ebay items I saved the listings for and see if I have the pics of the other lot.

I miss Ellam a bit sometimes... but he really belonged with you.
