In regard to the demand curve, for the most desirable items it is very inelastic. Because of that, bidders who really want the item will knowingly choose to take the bait and bid, fearing that, even though unlikely, if there is that "real" second bidder, they will have no chance of buying the item after the auction.

There are some Auctions Houses I prefer to deal with and others I prefer to attempt to avoid. But if the Right Card that I want or need is available I might need to bid/buy from an Auction House I would prefer not to. But Again I have the choice. Most of the cards I ever bought or sold never had a reserve (that I knew of) so it was not as much a factor (but what I do not know I do not know)

3 Days left and the Wagner still sits at $1mm with buyer's premium, which is where the card sat after the first day (has not moved since it opened) and is a mere half of the estimate. It ain't over until the until its over, but its starting to look like this Wagner will be a flop.
As a Wagner owner, I would love to see this restored "A" get over $2mm. As a realist, however, I think it tops $1.3mm max. |

Regarding the Wagner it may not sell for a lot more.
But with 11 bids in it only needs 2 people to get into a bidding war and the price jumps fast. But I am unsure which way it goes. I am thinking $1.5 million Regarding the Ruth 7 I agree it is ugly for a 7. And it has not moved much but at its current price new money coming into the bidding may look more at the Grade then at the eye appeal.

Either way I think the seller should be very happy with what he gets

$919,000...a reasonable price for such an ugly card.
I'm relieved...I was hypothesizing the easiest way to eat a t206...maybe vitamix it and put it in a smoothie??? |
