Having a ridiculous estimate like that makes the auctioneer looks unprofessional IMO. I dont understand the motive there. |

All the estimates in Guernsey's catalog, and the opening bids on eBay for this auction are absurdly high. |

While this is a great piece, I'm still trying to figure out why it's called a world's series trophy. |

Their opening bids and estimates are ridiculous. Who is in charge over there? I've never seen anything quite like it. |

In Zimbabwe, they are currently having unbelievable inflation. |

An enormous percentage of these lots will go unsold. What is their strategy? Nothing about those minimum bid amounts is based in reality. |

they were the ones who auctioned McGwire's 70th HR ball (i was at that live event in 1999). in that auction they also had other significant pieces from that season. they also auctioned an incredible selection of Mantle items a few years back as well (i was at that event, too). they get cool pieces, and put out great catalogs...BUT, i agree that these estimates are out of this world. |

Actually Shawn, it was one billion when dstudeba posted that. It has since been changed to a mere million dollars. Now I can bid! |

My apologies...a billion is absolutely crazy! Only Hal Chase's loving cup is worth a billion! |

I remember this trophy when it was sold by Oregon Trail Sports Auctions back in 1998. They had a great selection from Jake Stahl. I'd much rather have the jersey, sweater, or championship medal personally. |

Greg, no I didn't get the prices realized on this auction. They also sold a 1903 Worlds Champions medal given by the Boston Globe. It's a truly stunning piece. |

The trophy's cool, but those medals are awesome pieces of sports history. I'd much rather have those than the silver cup. Just my two cents. |

Jodi, nothing was noted in any lots that would appear to be holographic. Is there something specific you have in mind? |

Just curious if there was any signed material/papers that were sold as part of the estate. I don't recall seeing anything appear on the secondary market. |

The rascal closed at $190,000. I think that's a tad bit lower than a billion, but still a tad bit too rich for my blood. |
