What's up with Mears???

I was super frustrated as well. Tried one last time right around 11:00 PM and got a bid in. Things seemed to go smooth after that. Missed out on a Jordy Mercer game worn jersey from 2013 but got an umpire signed ball of Rosy Ryan and Frank Tabbachi. Ryan was a key player on the four straight NY Giants pennant winners from 1921-1924. Got it at a very nice price as well. Not many Rosy Ryan signed balls out there gotta figure.

Ken & Tom,
You both did very well on your vintage signed ball purchases. Congrats!

After a very frustrating Saturday night and not knowing if I won anything, I received my invoice today for the 6-12-1920 Yankees game used baseball. I'm a T206 memorabilia collector. Yankees pitcher was Jack Quinn. Tris Speaker also played in this game. Other notables include Ray Chapman (who went 2-2 and would be dead 2 months later), Duffy Lewis, and a fellow by the name of Babe Ruth.

Suprisingly, or maybe not, Mears has had other lots "vanish" after the conclusion of the auction.

This one was a genuine 1958 Maris signature with Harry Simpson on the other side. A very nice ball, but when I last noticed, it was only a little over $1,000 - several thousand short of what it should have gone for. I would not be surprised if the consignor demanded that it be pulled. With that many problems and so much money to be lost, I would not have blamed him.
