Even if a buy it now listing, you might think about making the seller a offer -??

Ive been slowly putting together an e98 collection and one thing I've noticed is that the cards are very tough to move. Always worth making an offer to the seller of your comfort level and you may be surprised.

Thanks. I got a couple messages confirming the same. . I was an early buyer on BSFs like a Wagner, young and Clarke. Got burned on all of them. But I did enjoy looking at the cards and thinking how well preserved they are for over 100 years ago.

If the price is right, I’ll bite, otherwise it’s the sidelines for me.

I would have a little bit of a concern even more could come out from the family.

While I agree it would be kinda "cool" to own a gem mint or close to it E98 Cobb...or any other for that matter. I do not believe BSF cards are a good "investment!" There are just way too many of them...there is doubt amongst some...as to their authenticity as well.

This "find" has forever ruined the high end e98 market...IMO.

There are exponentially more high grade E98's...than not...not good!

Any more info on the doubts of the authenticity? Ive taken a fascination to researching this set and the BSF

No...I don't have any...I just know there are people out there who continue to doubt their authenticity...I am NOT one of them!
