REA - dammit I'm out already

"Oh, somewhere in this favored land the sun is shining bright;

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...

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

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.

Very nice additions.

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

[Peter_Spaeth]

Nada. Was only pursuing one card, a 56 Mantle, but it went into orbit and I gave up.

Very nice addition on a tough Ruth!

I'm trying to pay my invoice to REA, but I never got emailed a copy of the invoice and my invoice in my website account just says this for payment types:

Please make checks payable to Robert Edward Auctions

If I remember correctly, the emailed invoices showed a lot more options for accepted payments. Would someone please be able to post or PM me the other options listed on their invoices? I emailed REA but haven't heard back yet.

Thank you for any help you can provide!

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.
