Goodwin Auctions Wins

Yea a few of those seem very high. Other than that Mantle and Clemente, the PSA 9 Ryan stands out to me. I thought that card was in the 15-20k range. A 1958 Mantle BVG 8 doesn't seem like a 4k card either. Both almost doubled all time VCP highest reported sales.

7k for a PSA 4.5 51 Mantle also seems high. 5s have been selling for less and 6s not much more.

Odd pricing....that is for sure. It is like someone doesn't eat shrimp so they go to the fanciest restaurant and pay $100 for fried shrimp. Little do they know the can go to Red Lobster, and for $16 get all you can eat!

I would suspect that some of the people that buy these are not board members here or they would certainly know better.............

If these auctions are legit and actually get paid, then either these are people who are essentially clueless about the sportscard market, or to whom these sums are trivial. Or both.

Well..one thing is certain. The card market is certainly heating up.

Is it though? It seems to me it's mostly just a few rookie cards for the most part.

Key HOF rookies and high grade Mantles seem to be going crazy. I haven't noticed the trend in anything else. I would say it's people fighting for the PSA registry but that doesn't explain the SGC 80 Clemente.
