REA - dammit I'm out already
Got bids on about 8-9 items, obviously outbid on all, but now I'm out for extended.
Strong prices have knocked me out.........a 1st round KO. I do have some consignments so I will make some money, but was hoping to get something. Not a chance. ........on to next weekend and Love of The Game! Not done there......................................yet. |

ive got a few bids hanging on...but I'm likely done bidding. not much I have to have these days.
|
#3
|
|||
|
|||
I have one still hanging around
|
#4
|
|||
|
|||
I put bids in on five lots of the many that I was watching.
Still "winning" two of them, but doubt they'll even make it to extended. |

I was outbid a long time ago.

Any of you smart enough to consign rather than buy, are already ahead of
me My rule with REA is to just come out with one win per auction, just one. We shall see... Trent King |

I'm in a similar position, put in 5 strong bids (I thought), I'm out on 3 already have 2 left with a little room but think I'm only have a true chance at one of them and it's not the one I really want.

Prior I put in a lot of preliminary bids and then some upped on the key ones I was thinking of.
Currently leading on 1 but most are already above my comfort zone I will make it to round two but will probably be KO’d

I noticed too late the 56 game hit streak combo ( ticket/signed program). I own a program already, but been looking for a ticket.

Yeah, they had one item I thought was really cool, putting in a bid that I thought was way over what anyone else would bid…and I am just barely hanging on. We’ll see but yikes.

I got to about 11 p.m. before I got knocked off a 52 Bowman Mantle PSA 7. Trying to see if I could bring it home for four digits instead of 5.

Here we go again--frozen out of the site now that the lot by lot 10 minute rule is in effect.

I'm pretty sure I got the card I wanted. It says it's closed now. It's definitely nice being on MST than EST for these endings. My first real auction house purchase.

I was mainly watching the 19th century items. Some lots went for what I thought were stupid prices. Some went really cheap or didn’t sell at all like the FBH Mutrie.

Strong prices. The 20% buyers premium played into my bids though.

The early stuff was so cool to see. Jackson and Ruth prices continue to be out of this world.

REA winnings
Well...I read about the "downage" this morning...I no longer stay up late for auctions...no card is more important than my sleep!
I was relieved to have been outbid on 1 card...I DID win one. Happy to add this ruth to my stable. |

Congrats Pete.
Jeff, I was wondering whether I would battle you on this Ruth. Thrilled to have picked these two up, and I think I got them both at very reasonable prices. Regarding the auction: (i) OK REA, I love you, but enough with the extended bidding glitches already. Figure that out once and for all, as its becoming a major detraction from what is otherwise one of the best auction events of the year. (ii) I thought prices in general were very strong. There were some bargains, but last night's results generally indicate that pre-war vintage remains strong |

yep Ryan
That was the primary Ruth I wanted. Lucky for you and sad for me that my recent splurge on 6 Ruth Cards kept me grounded. Great pick up and Congrats. There is always a next auction and a next auction and so on

I'm a low-roller so this was my win. I was a bit shocked by how cheap it went for. I can finally add my favorite 19th century player to my collection!

It looks like I significantly overpaid for the E-90 Young but thrilled to finally pick up a version that at least looks to be well centered with strong registration. In my view one of the 5 most beautiful cards of all time and this will be my third time owning one ... hopefully the third time is the charm :-)

Jeff, Thanks man I was hoping to get it a little less as I’ll want to reslab. It hit my top and was a nail biter to the end. I was anxious on the 20 min countdown. The color and centering for the issue I figured I better not let it pass.

This letter is an amazing piece. I went to sleep leading at 17k and expected to lose later on for sure, but was stunned to see the final price. Would love to have this.

Josh, great pick-up. Not too shabby either! Red- nice pickup. Those Scrappss are very cool Octovia- LOL. Enjoy. I am happy to give you mind. In fact, I tried to opt out of getting a catalog and I could not figure out of I could. I would be happy if you got mine and then you would have two |

Yes. A buyer's premium of any amount plays into everyone's bids.

I was in on the 1882 White Stockings Cabinet and the PSA 9 1961 Billy Williams, but the Williams really took off and I couldn't swing getting both. That's gotta be a record high for that card.
