I'll let someone else pay the better part of a million clams for the 8.5.

We all have limits, and that much bread is more than I'm willing to deploy for a single piece of cardboard, be it ever so nice.

That and after my experience getting burned with my altered 54T Mays previously in PSA 8.5, my desire to climb the set registry ladder is greatly reduced, particularly on big cards.

Have you decided what you are going to do with the 54T Mays?

It's resting comfortably in my display case, in its new and glorious AA slab.

I have designs to replace it with something a little less obviously odious, although I'm in no rush to do so.

I was looking through the autographs in the auction and I saw the album page signed by Johnny Evers. It has one autographed that is listed as illegible, but it appears to me that it's John Bernard "Jack" Ryan, a player from the 1880s and 1890's. Does anyone else think that's who it is? He even lists his years with Boston.

I have a centered SGC 7 54T Mays. Perhaps we can work out a trade?

I've always found within the variance of REA there are some pretty good deals. There were a bunch of items that went below sales history/card ladder suggested that I bowed out of for cash flow. The Sporting News Red Sox and W601 w Hoy went for less than half the gavel of recent sales. I also once consigned a Bruguera Ruth from Goldin to them, and it went for about 60% what I'd paid (then it was put up again, won by me, for even less, then flipped for about 30% more than I'd originally paid.)

Anyway, won the 7/11 Wilt Chamberlain which I'd wanted since I saw the first SGC 4 come up. Can't PC it, but it will be so cool to have for a minute.

Won the H572 set, which maybe has a Kenesaw Landis rookie? There are a few I'd PC, wondering if anyone grades them.

Won the Eastern Exhibit Schang. Just really like that image.

The lot of 2 panini calcio boxes, and the lot of 15 yogi berra day pins, which I know will make for 15 happy Yankees fans.

Lorewalker-

You have a strange definition of "ignoring". After all, you went out of
the way to quote me from a week ago just to send a snide comeback. I do
not think that word means what you think it means (a little "Princess Bride",
anyone?)

There are some wonderful people on this site, and then there are people like
you. I will give you this- you are likely the only sociopath in the little group
of angry repliers. Well done!

Angry is when someone takes a thread OT to attack someone out of the blue for their post that was made in jest. When was the last time you actually laughed or smiled? You are correct that there are some wonderful people on the board, you are not in that group. If you have anything else to say to me, big boy, send it in a PM and stop polluting threads.

I believe this was the highest price ever paid and this example was low grade.

Got blown out of the water on the large lot of 1914 T330-2 Piedmont Art Stamps. I’m not sure how that’s even possible. There were at least two others who wanted the lot more than I did (again, shocking).

If anyone here bought that lot and is only looking to hold onto a few of these or wants to unload some of their duplicates, I’d love to work out a trade or purchase with you.
