Ebay auction # 141552955280

I was wondering how long it would take for someone to try and flip something from this auction. I really hope he gets his price, will make me feel even better than I already do about my purchases. For the record, I have no issues whatsoever with this. I have often wondered if auctions like Saco's reach the majority of "players" in the market that would be willing to pay in this range for a card. My guess has always been that most collectors willing to spend in these price ranges would have know about it and bid in the original auction earlier this month. This will be interesting to watch.

Any news on the types of T206's that will be auctioned off in Feb?

There were some beautiful EPDG's last round, I'm wondering what next will have. Any Cycles or Hindus?

Any info or pics of the t205's or rare backs that were found?

I actually won the Gandil with the AB back and it was for 450.00. It was mistakenly listed as selling for 475.00. The only other AB Gandil 5 I have seen sold for over twice that amount in a Goodwin Auction. I plan to crossover that card and a few others I won to PSA . We will see if they cross

One of the Gandil's was listed as an EPDG back but was actually an AB no border back. Not sure how much that affected the final price at $475.

Rick, I noticed one item I won said it went for $25 more than what I ended up paying (and was beyond my max bid too, so I actually thought I was outbid). Seems like a software bug. Anyway, good luck with the cross.

Rick, congratulations on a great pick up. I was bidding on it as well, but needed to save some powder for some later items. I hated to let it go. I'm happy for you, I think you'll do very nicely with it! I bid via phone and my lots are showing the correct final bid, software seems the likely culprit.

I believe the next auction is set for Feb 15th so information should be available soon.
