Hunt Auction winners

Beautiful card Scott! You got a great deal.

Did anyone here grab the Matty Jones Keyser Arras Cabinet that was removed from the mount? I took it to $3000 but couldn't justify more. Hunt said they sent it to PSA. Pity that the "experts" there didn't realize what it was!!

SGC would have slabbed it as a JKA mount removed. Bet they sent it to Henry at PSA for photo type identification, which yes can not be identified as a type one.

I did OK and was able to get the one item I was really after in this auction.

The one thing I really don't like are the bid increments. Once an item hit $500, it went in $100 increments, which is a 20% leap. Same when it hit $1,000, the increments were $200. It made it so you could be a bit strategic about when to place the bid, knowing the next one would be a big jump. Most other auctions use a 10% bid increment, if not smaller.

Smaller increments may have solicited more bids in many cases - REA used to have a similar philosophy, but moved to smaller increments which I personally feel is much better.

I pre-bidded on that Cobb- green 1. Didn't get home early to live bid on it...Dang it!
Kinda curious myself to the reverese too!!! I wished i went more on it early on.
I logged in when the photos were ongoing.....as saw the 1921 Ruth photo PSA type I go for ton $$$$.

I just missed the T 206 Pirate lot and the 52 Bartirome (would have gone 1/2 an increment hire, but not a full one). I won the 33 Goudey Pirate lot - really pleased with the price. I was intending to bid on that Ruth photo - til it opened at over 30K!! and closed at 37 - WOW!! Great photo. Great price.

I was happy to pick these two up.

Is there a way to figure out what you won? I can’t seem to find such a link on their circa 1987-era website.
