Good luck with the sale. You might go try it on ebay and get some real exposure to see if your price point is correct.

Cant...it's too scarce. Hard to price when you have never seen any for sale. It is that rare. The only place you can see the past two sales from the last 15 years is Worthpoint, and honestly, how many of ya'll are worthpoint members!?!?!?! With all the free info out there, no one wants to pay to be told what something is worth.

There is an Agannis ball in the current REA auction...may have them offer it to the winning bidder.

[ruth-gehrig]

What makes you think they would do such a thing because I highly doubt they would. Better yet, see if they would be interested in consigning to their next auction.

If there is money to be made, they would do what they need to do. Obviously charge the consignor fee for the cost associated.

I may contact Bryan. I'm sure he will be there for awhile.

There is no such thing as "too scarce".

Put it on ebay with a $1,750 buy it now or best offer, and note in the description that you are open to offers.

It doesn't cost anything, and you may get some offers or info from the ebay audience.

I think the Net54 audience has proven to not be where it's going to sell (probably).

But I could be wrong,

Neither has pictures of the Agganis Dedication.

If I was looking for this program for my collection, I wouldn't be buying either of these until I saw a picture of the dedication. So you should both add picture(s) of the page(s).

And don't bother telling me "it's too fragile" to take a picture, that would qualify as a stupid reason.

Hi Doug....I think that the OP was offering a $500 reward if you found another one....you should look into this.

I forgot about that, the exact quote was:

PS - if a Red Sox collector wants ALL of the yearbooks, they HAVE to attempt to get this one. True, you can just pretend like it doesn't exist, the same way T206 collectors pretend the Wagner, Plank, and Doyle don't exist. However, if you want to have a complete collection........

Bobby - let me know how you would like to send my reward.

Insert smiley face here.
Doug


PS - Jeff, I'll give you a "reminders fee" when I get my reward...

Fortunately at your price it will be on Ebay for 10 years as well. Nice to see you dropped it $800 by the way. Should give someone plenty of time to fill that "EXTREMELY SCARCE" yearbook that has been eluding them.

[bobbyw8469]

You are talking shit and dogging someone's BST thread out when you have no freaking clue how rare it is or what it is really worth. So shut it.

[FirstYearCards]

Just a quick search, now that my intersest is in this again. Wonder how many more Mom and Pop places have this yearbook, but are holding on to it because of its' scarcity. Shoot them an offer, maybe they'll take $1200.

[bobbyw8469]

I already emailed them on that one....no reply....those programs are long gone.

[FirstYearCards]

It's odd, you would think with the scarcity of this yearbook you would at least post some other examples, besides the two you found.

I guess with a quick search, this is no good for you. I thought we were a community here, trying to help each other. Please check my sales/auctions, I have never "hyped up" my auctions. Actually, I usually just list them and let the chips lay where they may.

Seems like you are out to FoCK us over with your billshit descriptions. How about just list what you have and let us determine its' rarity. If we wanted to be fluffed by descritptions we could visit any number of AH.

I challenge you to put it up for auction here. I'll start it at $250 and you can take that $250 give it to Leon's charity of choice if I win. If not you win and can rub it in my face.

This thread has also gotten totally out of hand. I don't care who you are, no one has received the kind of abuse I have in offering to sell this program. NO ONE. I don't care who you are, all the negative posts that I have had to endure in this thread SHOULD NOT have been allowed. Period.

[GrayGhost]

agreed, but u came across bad at times "cocky"

This is the most educated board in the world on sports cards and collectibles. You came out of the box like a carnival barker, throwing a lot of hyperbole out there that was not supported and more appropriate for eBay. Claims you couldn't back up, just a lot of sales jibberish where you were clearly talking out of your azz, trying to hype something up. And some folks called you on it. This is not the place to come with a lot of wild claims you can't substantiate. While some people on the board take an attitude that you shouldn't call people on bs on the BST board, I personally don't subscribe to that. If you want to make outlandish assertions you can't back up, stick to eBay. Easier for you and everyone else. Maybe it was a nice piece after all. But nice pieces speak for themselves here, and don't need a barker standing behind them with a bullhorn.

Am I getting my reward?
