Goodwin typically brings very strong prices. No evidence of Shilling im aware of...but I have always been skeptical(surprise surprse)!

QUOTE=begsu1013;1556897]i don't know much about goodwin auctions*,

but what is the consensus on his reputability?

things like shilling, are they trustworthy, dubious past or anything?

trying to gauge the validity of this one...






* i bought my 51b signed mantle in an auction a while back. first and last time i ever logged on to his site. i never follow/bid in private auction houses.[/QUOTE]

$80,000 for an 8. The "new normal" is insane.

Considering what the 8 got, I'd say it's a deal as well.

Bill is a member here and has discussed a couple of other auctions that ended with what seemed like crazy prices at the time. I've had a couple of conversations with him but don't know him personally. I have no reason to doubt his credibility or the validity of his auctions.

Whether or not 80k will be the new standard for a centered 8 Koufax remains to be seen, but that's a lot more than I would have guessed even in today's market.
