Did anyone here win anything last night during the first day of Heritage's internet only portion of their auction? |

It's likely that the pieces you are going after are rarer and more desirable than the ones you are selling. Also, if you are an aggressive bidder then you are affecting the closing price of the pieces you go after; but on the ones you are selling you are not participating. |

Phil--This one is graded higher but only because of the condition of the back. The one in Heritage had a fantastic, and maybe unique, photo variation. |

A Garter under $5k 2 years ago may not have been possible. The Cracker Jackson in a 6+ i believe sold for under $15k. That was a $20k+ card not long ago. I think the economy and the overall availablity of more cards/auctions today coupled with the fact that a few guys left the hobby probably had a hand in the results. There will always be a big sale in every auction and people will be scratching their head like the Holmes Jackson last year in REA, but I thought prices were overall fair and seemed a tad low in general. |

Jay- what was the photo variation, or if you could, please provide a link. I just went onto their site and couldn't find it. |

Phil- as someone who has run many auctions I got to see how lots got bid up, and it's just as much or more about the people bidding as it is about the item itself. I always knew when certain bidders got in their qualifiers that there would be fireworks on the last night. How people bid in an auction is really quite fascinating. |

Well I had to. When I did phone auctions I spoke with every bidder. And even in an internet auction, the software provides bidders' names. Part of monitoring an auction is knowing what's going on. Of course bidders want the auction house to be completely in the dark but it doesn't work that way. |

Barry--The backdrop in the photo. The Heritage one looks like it has the actual backdrop and the one I attached a link to had the backdrop removed. |

Always a sucker for larger groups of tough cards. I picked up the group of 12 orange borders last night for what I thought was a pretty nice price given that there's a nice Matty in the lot, a Cobb, Speaker, Crawford in a 20 holder and several of those tough commons. Don't know much about these but I'll have fun learning and working with the group when they show up. |

I was 1 for 2, but was able to snag a small 18 card lot of tough T213 Coupon's. Getting a rare Type 3 Gabby Street/Nashville card in the mix...(Completed my Nashville Coupon subset!) |

All 4 items I was looking at did very well....and I struck out. I guess I need deeper pockets to play this game. I think some prices were very high and some not as high....Just about like every auction right now. It seems my D303 set is going to be expensive to try to complete. I also liked the E-Unc Wagner card and if I didn't have Moose McCormick, from probably the same test set, then I would have gone higher on it. One more lottery ticket please.....BTW, can anyone post a link to see the realized prices last night? I can only see the things I bid on...regards |

On rare stuff, it was a strong sale. On run of the mill stuff, it was spotty. I threw down several lowball bids on boxing cards that held up and won, which is nice except that I also chased and won one high end card for 2x what I wanted to spend. Oh well, that's what credit cards are for... |

I thought the N167 Carney went relatively cheap considering the condition. I planned on bidding on the N332 Peter Jackson, but forgot to bid last night. |

Thanks Corey and Barry! BTW, Barry, I had the same thought as you with respect to the background being removed. I also would have guessed that 5-10 of these are known, more common that most Peck and Snyders, except for the Cincinnati, which I would guess has about 20-25 known copies. |

Jay- yes, it would have been easy for the photographer to have removed the background, but I doubt there was any known technology that would have allowed him to add it. |

That was one of the better deals on the boxing side of the auction. Once you get within a reasonable % of value, making that next move is painful if all you're doing is going after a duplicate card given the 19.5% vig. I looked at Jackson long and hard but I hated the condition. Also looked at the Yankee Sullivan but it had something on the front right cross his upper chest and would have driven me crazy for the money. |

The Carney would have been a nice upgrade for me. But not really looking to upgrade. I liked the image on the Peter Jackson but agree about the condition. I think the price was reasonable condsidering the condition. I would have went a little higher if I had remembered to bid. I think the SF Hess Peter Jackson is the key card in that set. |

Last night was the first time I've won something from Heritage (a group of 10 E121-80's). Do they send an invoices at the end of the auction or should I be contacting them? |
