This was in a 36 PB lot, each card was $25. It now resides in a boardmember's very nice raw set.

100 bucks for what appears to be a unique Moeller Drum T206 sgc A,
2 or 3 years ago---from a mighty good friend.
Framed with a drum pouch, which obviously couldn't have held the card but a beauty nonetheless.
best,
barry

Bought this in 2008 for $45. Currently resides in KO's collection.

By far my biggest victory ever. Appears VG-EX, measures correct. Got it for $1,000, worth at least twice that.

Rob,
Spectacular card!!! I won't hold my breath, but let me know if you ever feel like parting with it.

Look at me, opening up another old thread. Finally scanned this card after buying it sometime in early 2002. I figured since I mentioned it in this thread, why not post it here. Maybe someone else also got a great find in the last six months. $65 delivered for this off the bay

[where the gold at?]

i purcahsed i cy young glove shows t206 scrap for $30 in 2002....probably could have gotten for half that but i wanted it sooo bad. i recently sold it for $5250.

My best purchase was probably this 1890's Binghamton Bingos cabinet featuring Wee Willie Keeler. When I bought it for $100, I did not know Keeler was in it. Figured it out within 5 seconds of opening the package.

Been looking for that one for years. Only seen it in an old auction catalogue until now. When did you get it?

This board might have more pre-war card info on it than anywhere else. I actually remember when Scott got it....

Jeff, Phil,

I bought it on ebay 9-10 years ago, then sold it about a year later to a Keeler collector. I don't know where it went from there, as following my old pieces through the auction houses and seeing what they re-sell for, is quite depressing.
