Two things that might have been at work in my opinion:
- I missed out on a card (not one of these) on Sunday because gavelsnipe didn't enter my bid and someone won a $120 card for $60. You might have had a potential buyer or two with the same problem.
- I also think there are tiers of t206 commons. The set collector wants them all, but some other collectors (including me) want some commons more than others. I would say the desirability of t206 commons goes roughly like this:
1. Major League portraits
2. Major Leaguers with colorful and interesting backgrounds
3. Minor League portraits (the artists spent less time on these, and they are just less pleasing to the eye)
4. Major Leaguers with monotone or boring backgrounds
5. Minor Leaguers with monotone or boring backgrounds
I mention this because the Clark stands out to me as a pretty boring, not real desirable card, at least to me. If you had a few in the bottom tiers, that could be part of the reason for the low prices realized.
