Not too much love on my Micks i consigned. Had 4 lots with '0' bids. And 1 was a group lot of oddballs.

Chris:

I looked at the Mantle Lot after your comment and here is my opinion only

The 1975 Topps in SGC 7.5 has in my opinion a Beckett BV of $35. The "7" books at $15 while the 8 Books at 60. I actually rounded that up presuming the average to $35; others may disagree and say I was too generous in my BV for that card

The 1975 Topps in PSA 9 O/C in my estimation translates to a PSA 7 and the BV is $10 on that card in a 7. Once you have the qualifier, the 9 means nothing.

The other four oddball cards have no real value and frankly it takes a hard core Mantle graded card collector to want those.

in MOO (My opinoin only) you started the lot with the odd balls at least $10 too high at a minimum bid and the $40 min bid might have been stretching that.

So, after doing some research, perhaps you might want to reconsider your minimums

This was the first time I bid in one of these auctions and I'm glad I started with Sterling. $5 shipping is very fair

I only see one T206 that didn't sell?

[Rich Klein]

But I also verified the 1968 Game Card with a $40 BV and a $25 min bid. After the Buyer's Premium (16 percent) and I'm using a $1 shipping charge, now your card is 75 percent of book.

I would wager that no one thought they were getting a bargain which is how in my opinion one needs to start an auction price.

Last night I checked the auction out and looked at one card that caught my eye, but I thought the current bid was as high as I would go so I didn't bid on anything. This morning I got an invoice and apparently I was the one that bid on that card on the first day when the auction opened so I won the card. Funny how that worked out.

I think he may be referring to the prices being relatively lower for southern leaguer 3s.

Ah, I can see that. I bid on the Fritz Hindu, was the second bid, it sold at three bids. I was out due to other purchases that went through this week.

[FirstYearCards]

Got it at my max bid, was hoping for a couple hundred less, but still happy.

[GoudeyGum]

I won the T201 Cobb for my set and a T206 (Starr).

I had a few on my watch list and planned on bidding, but just didn't feel like pulling the trigger...sorry Erick

Any reason you didn't list them here first?

[pawpawdiv9]

@RichK: I did not have any minimums requested. These were all set by Lee.
Maybe thats why some items didnt sell last time and got relisted again.
Thanks for the bit of info sir.
I'll have to chat with Lee, or if he sees this.

Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose, sometimes it rains. Think about that for a minute.
