Any Reaction to Legendary Auction Prices

Anthony- this morning I got an email from a Nigerian prince who wants me to help him bring $8 million into this country. All I have to do is give him access to my bank account and he will deposit it directly.

I'm already planning what I will do with my new found wealth!

Eric- to answer your question when I put my initial bids in two weeks ago I got every bid and outbid email from them. But on the final two days I got none. So something wasn't working those last two nights.

I thought the 7 E94s for $2100 plus juice and shipping was a heckuva deal. They were all slabbed and included a 50, 5 40s and a 30, nice solid lot. No big names except Cicotte but nice solid mid grade cards. Last summer this lot in Mastro or REA would have gone for $3500+. I don't know if it is the bad pub Legendary/Mastro has received scaring away potential bidders or if the card market continues to be somewhat depressed, but the final bid was suprising to me and I have tracked E94s for 10 years.

I was happy to take this e125 for $1,303.50:

let's hope the transaction is a success.

I still have recieved not a single e-mail...before, during nor after.

The number on the K-Bat Donahue was pretty impressive at $70K plus the vig. I think I know who won it but can't figure out what underbidder would have taken it to that kind of level.

I thought I figured out the winner and the underbidder, but if you don't know then I may be wrong.

Barry--wasn't me. Maybe someone from Fulton St.

Yeah, that's my cousin, Jimmy. He's cool. You'll get your money.

Those cultural imperialists at Ellis Island changed it. The screwed up part is, he was only visiting.
