Default Buying Collections

Posted By: davidcycleback

A good number of years back I won at a good price at Mastro what must have been someone's personal
collection. It contained vintage 1960s bobble heads, team photo sets, autographed baseballs with 1960s teams
and even a Mickey Mantle single (I was happy when than resold for $150!), 1950 World Series tickets,
small pile of sports wirephotos including one signed by Bobby Hull, baseball pennants, Agentinian football
memorabilia including pins and silk pennant, other various ephemera. All of it resold well and it was good
fun handling it. If someone you didn't know on eBay offered such a lot you'd wonder what you actually receive if you win.

It's nice to win a single item, but you know exactly what you're getting getting in the mail. There's nothing
better to me than get a big box filled with cool assorted stuff like above that will take you a few hours
to go through and appreceate. It's like Christmas.
