i have been watching this for some time now hoping it didnt get the attention that it now has.

i don't even collect them but would have bid should there been not many people willing to risk it.

guys...a near complete set of CJ's isn't going to fly under most radar?! Some cards have been graded...where's the big risk?

The other thread did not point to the auctions name. Plus before any of these threads came up, there was already 29 left bids online.

Hi-
I am a frequent antique auction goer, and I can state with absolute certainty that these were not going to go cheap, if these threads had never been created. There are many folks searching Proxibid and any of the other major antique auction websites. Now if these were at a tiny auction with no internet bidding, I might agree that these were "outed" and should not have been. There are still bargains to be had, but not when an auction is on a major searchable site like that.
