Some T206 prices were wild, but did anyone see the T210-8 Manuel that sold for $3600. Pretty wild. Two people must have really wanted to complete a set. It would be interesting to see what one would sell for if offered at auction today.

Strong prices
Gee, the strong prices are making it real tough to hit the button with a serious bid. The nice grade T206 HOFers now out of my budget. Glad I picked them up a decade or so ago. Maybe if a couple speculative stocks I have finally hit, then it might be game on again. Until then, sidelines for me. Sigh.

I would agree with that. It is getting pretty expensive to get a nice HOF 5 or 6 of Young, Matty, and Johnson. Obviously Cobb also.
I believe there are new people hunting these cards down. There are guys out there willing to put 20k on a blackjack table. Why not gamble on card prices. I think you see people going heavy on mid grade HOF players. They are still within reach for some people, they turn over in the market fast should you want to sell them and they are going up. That is an explosive combination to get people interested. It always huts when there is a card you want at a price and you hold off only to find out you missed the boat. Sometimes you just have to bite the bullet, pay the price and wait for it to meet what you paid for it or you will always be at the dock. Last edited by PhillipAbbott79; 03-13-2017 at 08:12 PM.

I won the Shag. This was one of those cases for me where quoting a member on this group "sometimes you just gotta say what the hell". I forgot exactly what he said. And go for it. I've seen previous auctions where the same grade OM back went for 1200-1400. But this one was so perfect looking I couldn't resist. I'm sure it being an HE card also had something to do with the high price as well. I've always loved this card. Shag looks so respectful with his pose. Plus I'll never own a beautiful Green Cobb so for me this was the next best thing to it. Gonna keep for a long time. A keeper
I thought the horizontal Murphy 400+ was a bit high. Last edited by Billy5858; 03-13-2017 at 11:35 PM.

That Manuel was the highest price I remember seeing paid on a non-Jackson/Stengel T210.

very, very strong prices on those t206's. the consigner must be very, very happy!
not sure if I'm believing that these "new" prices will stick on "common", t206 cobbs and such. time will tell. could be market manipulation similar to last years run on 50's hof rookies. there ARE some out there with a lot of t206 cobbs after all!!!!!

Interesting thought. Wouldn't that require a very substantial amount of money? How does someone do that without everyone realizing what is happening?
