REA Results Last Night
Like many here, I was bidding on several items. I didn't see anything go cheaply. I saw some cards go, wildly, for sums I thought were crazy. Some E cards (E94 and others), commons in 4 holders, going for 1k-2k++.
Why don't my cards do that well when I auction them?  I had a few pickups and might show them later.... The market for pre-war remains very strong with an upward trend. I think there are a lot more investors than even a year or two ago. .

Cross' only non-Pied./SC back is the Tolstoi. My "mid-tier" set sits at 519/520, missing only this combo. There are probably others in or near this situation. A very "unique" card. I think I'll wait for mine .........................  Fun, fun, Scott

I was bidding on the obak Ten Million thinking I could get a fair price, to my
surprise it went way over what I was willing to pay considering condition.

Depressing
Seeing things I used to own and sold for fractions of the ridiculous, way-over logical prices that they fetched last night. At least the prices made no sense to me and my 40 years of doing this.

I guess I might consider Joe Kelley for $40k to be frustrating, so maybe you're referring to that one. But even an Eddie Plank signed check for $20,000 isn't totally crazy based on my expectations for signed Plank sales.

Very healthy bidding indeed as the last day run up in prices were impressive. Had a full page of no wins as many new highs reached on individual cards

Bid on a few pre-war cards and got killed. Made what I thought were too high of bids on a few of the shoebox collections and got killed. I'll never understand the more common things that go 30 percent higher than you can get on Ebay every day of the week. Only thing I won was the lot with the 76, 77, and 79 Topps sets and felt like I overpaid for that.

As an East Coast person with a job that starts at 630am, I cannot do these kind of auctions before a work day. I bid my highest I was willing to go, but I would have thrown a bit more at one or the other (maybe both) that I lost out on if I was actually awake at the time extended bidding was kicking into the final rounds. When I go to bed I don't know if I'm in line to win all 4 or part of what I'm bidding on. I can't bid the absolute highest on everything assuming I won't win 2 or 3 of them...resource allocation (money) and all that... It is what it is, but I'm not trying to stay up most of the night in order to maybe overspend on something. This happens too often, but I figure the people running things set it up like this for a reason.

Reading through the thread made me want to show the price for 3 poor Topps cards that sold at Julien's on the 12th. The selling price was $500, the total price with commission was $640. I wouldn't pay $25 for all 3 of them. Maybe it's just me, but is that price crazy or what? They belonged to Larry King - maybe that's the reason.

I won the 1914 Cracker Jack Walter Johnson--went to bed at 1030 so lost a few more Cracker Jacks--I would have hit them 1 more time, but had to get some sleep--Bid on other cards, but lost on them.

REA Auction
I don't think you will see a group of e94's like that anytime soon!

I'm not sure people outside of the rabid E94 circles realized this was the most significant E94 sale since the John Esch Heritage auction in 2021. It took the member that originally put this set together many, many years to compile the group. As far as I know the highest graded E94 set unless there is one buried in an old-time collection, which there may be. I was fortunate enough to be able to upgrade 4 of my cards but this is the kind of auction that makes you want to sell a kidney or two. Congratulations to the auction winners and consignors. - Last edited by Casey2296; 08-18-2025 at 02:05 PM.

With about 20 active bids, I crashed about midnight. This morning discovered had won 1 item, the 1/1 McGraw - glove Japanese Tour postcard. Price wasn't a crippler and fits in well with my McGraw glove collection. My other bids were crushed.

I was able to grab a couple of Hornsby's - The m101-6 and the Block Brothers postcard. Went higher then I wanted to on both, but told myself I wasn't going to miss out on another m101-6 and the PC was only the second one I've seen after Leon's here so couldn't stop hitting the bid button.
