I feel asleep a little after 3AM trying to wait up to get in late bids. I refuse to place a top all bids in any auction. I don’t know why some auction companies think this is good business. HA and REA have changed and they are both the leaders for sport card auctions IMO. I wish other AHs would follow suit and close lots independently, which allows bidders all to be there, competing for that lot. The ML format we guess when the auction is gonna close. Heck, I could do a bid ever 15 minutes for 24 hours straight if I wanted to and then that would make the AH just shut it down manually. This favors all the West Coast buyers… Ok, enough complaining about the format..

The Matty W600 was amazing and no surprise to the final price. Congrats to the winner. I thought the Young Cabinet had a little meat left on the bone and maybe I should have popped a late bid on that.

My bid around 1 or 2am held up on the 1910 T213 type 1 (1910) Red Cobb which is a card I’ve always wanted. My understanding on the three types are type 1’s are most rare followed closely from type 3s (1919), then type 2s which are still rare but more common (if you can say that) for the series.

Congrats to all the winners of the ML auction including the bottom items in the gallery, as I would have bid more had I been awake. If you want to sell for quick profit then PM me….

I did happen to get beat like a red headed step child on the “3 bagger” Gehrig. I thought the price was insane but have never seen Gehrig W502 card in a 3 bagger back. I only buy centered backs with low eye appeal. Took a shellacking setting other records on 2 others. ����������������*����*�� I dislike the format but can’t argue with the cards or Joe T’s fabulous verbal bj description. Met him in Strongsville and I love the guy. FYI, I am on the west coast.
