The card pictured below received the 7th most bids of all lots in the auction. Is this a major non-sport set, or a particularly tough card, or a pure registry play (in which non-sports is ripe for, if not already riddled with, card doctors), or what? I love that a non-sports card got this many bids in REA - what’s good for cards generally is good for baseball cards - but still a head scratcher.
Regarding pick ups, I finally did well in an REA auction under the new, all lots close at once, format. I picked up 6 cards: e92 Wagner, e103 Wagner, e104-2 wagner, t216 Cobb, t206 Merkle Brown lenox, and 1914 CJ Plank. I thought it was a very even auction, with some cards going for surprisingly high prices (other than my Merkle brown Lenox, which I paid out the ass for, I will not name which ones for risk of retribution), and some definite deals.
Based on Heritage, where I struck out aside from a great looking t215-1 Tinker, and last night, I would say the “hobby” is alive and well. The economy is good. Interested to see how things in pwcc turn out — I am still not bidding in a wallet protest.
