REA - I won!!!

Some solace - knowing that I pushed someone to pay (over pay?) just a bit more than I or anyone else was willing to.

Some regret thinking just to be willing to pay a bit more and.........nah - I reached my limit.

Under bidder on about a half dozen lots and I'm done! Congrats to the ultimate winners (auction still open) - price aside, you got some GREAT cards!

Hooray! I won something too. The T227 lot of Baker and Bender. This completes my "set" of four baseball players.

I really wanted the Diaz Ruffing. I'm jealous of whoever won that.

And what was the deal with the E107 Phillipi? $14K, far more than many HOFers.

Nice pick up on that T227 lot- I was watching that for a bit too.

That was surprising to me as well. Brent on Ebay just sold a PSA 6 blank back of Phillipi in January for $10.5k. But I assumed the premium there was because of the high grade. I don't think there are (m)any that would pay a huge premium for an E107 with an Ad Back vs. blank back.

Again, a bridesmaid...... underbidder on several.

Did anyone track the N162 King Kelly PSA 2? Visually might be the nicest in existence.
Thoughts on price? It more than doubled what I was thinking it would go for.

Yea I noticed that one as well. I thought it would go between 2-3k. It certainly had excellent eye appeal, worthy of a pwcc high end designation.

Used to think the same way but eventually realized that many of the "anonymous" bidders I was costing money were good friends. It affords me neither pleasure nor solace but not much we can do about it. These auctions are a bit like a brawl with blindfolds on.
