I voted The Choice of Collectors.
I also just registered/signed up. I have never taken part in any auctions like this (strictly buy on here, eBay and Blowout). I'm really super excited to take part in my first auction. I've never owned anything older than the 1950s. But I've been looking to get into pre-war stuff, so I'm excited.

Good Luck, lots of reasonable entry level options. I'm also happy to answer questions and discuss any cards if you're unsure of anything!

I just want to point out that "touched by many" is a no go. That's a big fire and a miss.

I think that line was said by Jack Black in the movie School of Rock.

Thank you Scott for a great idea and the generous offer. Good luck to you on your auction. I've put in my bids and maybe a few more before its all over. Good luck to everybody!

I liked "It's in the Cards".
But did not see it in the poll, so voted for something else. Best of luck with the auction! |

MGM has the Latin slogan:
Ars gratis Artis. Art for Art's sake. How about: Coactos gratis Coactore. Collecting for the sake of the Collector.

Thanks for an amazing auction. We sold a Tolstoi Red Portrait Cobb in PSA 1 for $2600 destroying what Heritage got for one in December. Remember We're not as big as the big boys, but that card was probably on page 32 in Heritage. It was in the first line in our auction and a focal point of all of our advertising. Also, we're likely to give you better terms on a $1,000 - $5,000 card than the big houses. We offer no commission on playing era cards of Cobb, Ruth, Wagner, Cy Young, Gehrig, WaJo, and Joe Jackson. We offer 105% of hammer for nicer examples. We have to put together another Pre War for late in the year, so hit me up!

What a great auction. Was fun to bid on cool cards and not have to worry about insane sticker shock when the invoice arrives. And many cards not in plastic slabs. What a concept. You can actually touch them. And my consigning experience was great too.

There is never any "insane sticker shock" for those that simply read the auction rules. For those clueless individuals that bid in an auction WITHOUT reading the rules, or for those not skilled enough to use a calculator... yes, I guess there is "sticker shock".

OK, movie references probably aren't the best way to go. |
