PWCC Auction Yet Again

Just pulled down the one card I wanted more than anything else out there. 10 day auction and I'm not going to go to bed wondering if some guy in Californoa who works nights is going to beat me to it at 3:45 am. Yes. Thank you PWCC.

My history would show similar results. A couple of bids with Sean and maybe Probstein, but no one else else comes close to putting the quality and quantity of high end cards up for auction as pwcc. I bet my profile shows 80-90% with him. And I don't shill my own consignments.

Cause no one else gets the money they do. It's a catch-22.

So I had my eye on a few cards to understand the market, but not to buy. The last 30 seconds of this auction were insane:

Is this "normal" for high grade cards or was this a one-off where two guys really wanted it?

Pretty normal pattern. Two or three folks battling it out at the end. Many of these high end cards double in bid in last minute. Most people figure why bother a constant battle for days, just slug it out in the 15th round. Rope a dope before that.
