That said, assuming you mean specifically a deal posted on BST, I have no doubt there have been a couple 6 figure deals, but I doubt seven figures on BST. I feel 5 figure deals are common place now (several per month), and I don’t know what can be bought for less than 4 figures nowadays, on BST or anywhere else. Recently I sold several t206 brown old mills for $22k per card.

I think, for this discussion we could encompass deals with people we've met through the forum.

My guess would be Ryan's Wagner.

Although y'all did have a chance at the Nun's Wagner at a discount but nobody would take poor Andrew(?) seriously.

Most "big" transactions done through contacts here are not publicized for many reasons (taxes, security, privacy) ..... jus sayin. Thats only my opinion but I would think its true.....

Bingo.

I know of several big cards that avoided the auction house between members. Ryan’s being the largest in recent memory and since he brought it up, I feel ok mentioning. Perhaps others will add in, but for many reasons I will leave it to them.

I’ve listed stuff on BST that didn’t get the slightest whiff of interest that exploded in value a year or two later. Board members often act like they are these completely rational actors. Truth is people love the rush of auctions. Until someone else says they want something often time it doesn’t seem that attractive.
