Great catch Rhett! Heck of a pickup.

Nice Premium Greg, was a steal. Do you have two now or is this a replacement one?

Replacement. For the price, I couldn't let it go, thought I would be outbid but wasn't

[Runscott]

Greg, that was a great deal. I'm moving, so couldn't justify bidding on an item that large, but I was pleased with this:

Great Pickup! I had my eye on it too.

I got this 1933 Yankees ball signed by Ruth and Gehrig (and others). It's pretty light but it worked for my price range, so I'll be quite happy with it!

My two pickups from last night's auction. I previously had a '33 Delong Gehrig that I had to part with in order to fund a trip to Easter Island. Hasn't been an easy replacement. The Jackie replaces one I sold to Greg Schwartz years ago (Ok, 5 or 6), and I have been kicking myself for selling it ever since. The market for Jackie's rookie has obviously changed since then.

Yes, Robinson rookie cards have seemingly shot up in price overnight -- but how about the fact that the SGC 60 went for as much as the SGC 84? And the 84 is a nice 84.

[CharleyBrown]

I think the SGC 60 kind of falls into the same category as the 38 Goudeys...

Robinson cards have definitely shot up in the past 7-9 months.

Yes, a wildly off-centered PSA 7 went in a PWCC auction in June for twice what the card had been going for. Now a 2K card is regularly a 4K card. And even a nice SGC 60 goes for 4K! Thanks, Brent!

Yeah, it's crazy. I was first extremely panicked when I saw the price of the SGC60 thinking perhaps I screwed up and bid on the wrong Robinson. Seems pretty odd how it sells for the same as the one I picked up.

Rhett, nice pick-up. It's great to get one of those cards that you've been looking for for so long.

Maybe the bidders for the SGC60 didn't put a placeholder bid for the 84 for whatever reason (perhaps thought it'd go for a lot higher), so just ended up getting in a bidding war on this one.

This is the first we have heard about any of our cards selling for unusually high prices.

[cyseymour]

Does every thread really need to become about Brent and PWCC?
