Auction houses aren't the ONLY way to sell. There is always the Ebay way. They take a lot less fees but also might get less heavy hitter bidders. I do remember BMW Sportscards selling some very valuable cards on ebay and getting good money for them. I think I remember a Bronco Ngurksi (sp?) getting about 80k on Ebay....and I think there was a very high end '51 Mantle too....But in the long run it's still going to be the auction houses that get the best stuff in quantity. This also might be an open door invitation for the smaller auction houses to gain a little market share. I don't think I've ever heard of anyone complaining about 19thCenturyOnly and some other smaller ones.....If I were going to sell my collection I would certainly have to look at all venues to see what would realize the most money in MY pocket. regards
