I came away with nothing as well. Does anyone know when the REA preview is available?

I wonder how much correlation there is between the mind-numbing numbers generated by this splendid collection and the Dow Jones hitting an all time high- both on the same day. Just a tad, me thinks

It was a perfect confluence of events: the most popular set ever, offered in the highest condition ever, marketed individually by the top auction house, during the strongest stock market ever, with an incredible concentration of wealth at the top.

Put that all together and what do you get? An $8 million T-206 set. And the fact that so many records were smashed doesn't surprise me at all. It's what I would have expected.

Default Cheap......
$8 million was cheap (if you had it!)

I'm amazed it went that low cumulatively.

The most expensive painting ever sold was: $450 million by Da Vinci named "Salvator Mundi" in 2017.

Basically Salvator Mundi sold for more than 50 times the BEST ever T206 set!?!?!?

Seriously. That set went cheap. The rich get richer!

Peace, Mike

Imagine how much they'd have brought if all of them were intact...

The flips were intact; what's the problem?

I'm 62 years old and went to shows and card stores since the 80's and in all my years of seeing T206's I've never seen cards that pristine. I saw a lot of fat border T206's back then. Then again I've walked in the woods since I was a kids and never saw Bigfoot either.

Default Amazing auction
I was bidding on 30 different cards but ended up with zero. I was hoping to pick up a few if I thought they were bargains, but no go. The PSA slabs bring a lot of value, that's for sure.
