REA - dammit I'm out already

[becollie]

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 :-)

That Young was, in my opinion, hands down the best looking card in the auction. I am sorry to admit that I was the underbidder and likely cost you some money, and I almost went back at it again. Congratulations on grabbing a gorgeous example of a key card.

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

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.

Haha ... no worries at all ... I am sure the consignor is happy ... now I just need to find a well centered E90 Speaker. The hunt begins :-)

[puckpaul]

I won only one card, this N173 Dan Stearns. Been looking for it for many years. Was surprised it didn’t run a lot higher. (The back is totally fine.)

I was bidding on it but turned my attention elsewhere. Congrats!

I agree. I own 2 and wouldn't mind another but nice ones have gone way up like everything else. That is a great example, damn the grade. Congrats

I struck out except for one small card, probably for resale.

The band is playing somewhere, and somewhere hearts are light,

And somewhere men are laughing, and somewhere children shout;

But there is no joy in Mudville—mighty Casey has struck out."


Congratulations to all the net54 members on their wins.

Now on to LOTG...

[mybuddyinc]

I was under bidder on 3 lots.

With the prices these days --- that's some sort of half-assed accomplishment ....

[Bobbycee]

Some of the T206 Cobbs went cheap, I thought. PSA 4.5 Bat Off for $10,500.
Red portrait 4.5 for $9,600. There were alot of Cobb choices but some bargains in there.

[MR RAREBACK]

One of my highlights was a 1887 n284 cap anson hard to believe they go that cheap

[babraham]

I managed to pick up two cards, a 1952 Bowman Mantle that has pretty good centering and a T200 Fatima Cleveland team card. The T200 is an upgrade to a PSA 1.5 that I currently have in my collection.

[mordecaibrown1]

Some beautiful pick ups. Figure I would join the Ruth Party.

In my opinion price differential will vary greatly, even on the blue chip cards when factoring in centering, surface wear and overall eye appeal.

High eye appeal examples no matter the grade will always carry a premimum and sell for more than those examples which are just kinda blah!!

Thats my two cents on some of these from last night.

[Touch'EmAll]

Yes, eye appeal, especially centering seems to be a big factor in price these days.

There were 2 Cobb's Bat On, both PSA 4. One was 65/35 ish right/left and went for 9,900. The other looked at least 55/45 or better and went for 14,400.

not sure you could really overpay on these. the really good ones are locked down pretty tight.
