0 for 4 in Heritage...How did you guys do?
 

Placed decent bids on 4 of the Uzit lots in Heritage. Lost all 4. Wasnt aggressive enough. Anyone pick up anything good?

0 for 1

If the winner of the Complete Set of M101-2 Sporting News Supplements is interested in parting with some of them, myself and a fellow net54 collector would be interested. Even if you won't want to part with any, I'd like to get some info on them when you receive the lot.

thanks!
Rob
:)

p.s. now i can see why REA finishes their auction right after Heritage ... so that the underbidders in Heritage can spend their dough in REA!!!

Double edged sword really....had I won all 4 Uzit lots, I'd be busto for REA. Do I try for a BL460 now, or wait till Aug 2011?:confused:

Happy to pick this guy up:

By August 2011 you will have moved on to another hobby anyway (or so I hope) so go for the REA auction!

Rob, I'll second that request. If you are able to get any info, please pass it along. Interesting lot. Thanks.

I won two auctions on Heritage (0-2 on Goodwin). I'm pretty sure I overpaid probably significantly on at least one of the cards, so I'm already getting buyer's remorse. The card in the same grade and back is cheaper on eBay right now. I'm an idiot.

Bitterness is a terrible character trait. Try to let things go. You might end up actually liking your life if you do!

I have to agree
 

Even though there has been some disagreements on the board
(lately) lets try not to "start" anymore arguments and see how it goes. Pretty please....No need to comment on this request but please try to adhere to it, for everyone's sake.

That was a steal Jay!

a few things
 

As stated previously there is really nothing in Heritage or REA that I need, or really even want, for my collection given my focus. That being said I did get a few things for resale. I was surprised the E97 Young in a 40 holder didn't do a little better. The exact same card sold for 1k more last year. Such is timing I guess.......

Jay- Nice pickup on the cabinet. I know at least one other person that had an interest in it too...

Jay,
Great piece. Congrats.
JimB

Heritage: 0 for two

Goodwin: 3 for twelve, but I didn't get either of the P42's or Hindu So Lgrs

But I can't complain too much because I've had some good pickups in other auctions, BST, and ebay recently :)

Best Regards and hope everyone has a great REA!
Craig

I won the t217 mono...

An interesting side note on the 1887 cabinet. For those of you who have read or are reading "Fifty-Nine in "84" (The Hoss Radbourn bio) you will remember that Cyclone Miller is mentioned as having pitched a few games for Providence in 1884. Joe "Cyclone" Miller was on the 1887 Lincoln team and is pictured at left in the top row of the cabinet. Also pictured is Fred Lange, author of a famous work about baseball on the Pacific Coast.

Not a huge E-Card guy only have 30 or so way more T-cards...but I thought these were neat and looked nice. Not sure I got a deal like Jay...as I don't really follow these.

But at least it has the "crazy" eyes Hartsell always liked that card.

Those E104's are sweet !!

nice nadjas wonka...don't know what u paid...but i'm sure it's worth it!

Congrats Jay! Do you know if this is the same one that sold in the 1990s in an Oregon Trail auction? Are you aware of any other copies of this cabinet? I'd like to snag one some day, I couldn't afford to go after this one at the moment.

Dan--I don't have a clue. I'm not as diligent as I should be at researching these things.

Great looking cabinet, Jay. Congrats!

(0 for 3 in HA for me)

My Titanic bid sunk and my quick jab at Marciano was a knockout after only one round...but the Lord saved me.

Always wanted this player in my collection and, since it's so rare, it was just a dream to own this card in such good shape. I am very pleased and it was a bargain to me. It has a good home for quite some time.

Great pickup Kevin, those cards when found without ink stains are amazing.

That SGC holder is huge!

The following major leaguers are present:
Dave Rowe
Jake Beckley
Bill Hart
Parke Swartzel
Jim Brown
Joe Herr
Charlie Hoover
Charlie Hall
Tom Dolan
Cyclone Miller

Good images of some of these guys are pretty scarce.

I wonder if Mr. Blunder won his 2 card Uzit auction. It actually went pretty cheap!!!

"Even though there has been some disagreements on the board

Speaking of throwing gas on the fire... :mad:

The instigator of those arguments obviously missed the point of Leon's post.

I know guys....
 

I agree Paul and Wonka. That comment didn't go unnoticed......last warning....to ALL concerned....I am really not taking any sides I just want the bickering to cease. Next one to throw a jab, or veiled innuendo, is going to get a time out. Forewarned is fair-warned, imo......

Speaking of the penalty box, doesn't Bruce get to come back and play with us soon?

I went 0 for 11 in Heritage.

M101-2
 

Won the M101-2 set and am thrilled. I know they have back damage but at $36 per card with BP, it was hard to pass up. Have half the set already but getting the Cobb and Jackson, etc. are exciting. Lost out on the 1916 Brooklyn press pin today unfortunately.

What did the Martin's Cobb go for?

10k
 

A hair over 10k after the commission....

Greg- Yes, Bruce is probably close to being out of the penalty box. Who knows if he will come back. The amount of suspension can be set to almost any length of time. His was 30 days. It's an automatic reenstatement in the system after that time period.

Thanks Mr. Luckey.

Heritage Winnings :
 

Very happy to snag my first Nashville Vols Cabinet photo after nearly a decade of looking. Possibly a player signature as well on the photo. Tony Tonneman had 1 major league hit (Double) in 5 ab's. He was a solid Minor Leaguer back in the day...

Wonka
 

great group and I notice that Murphy is in there...:cool:

ofer 5
 

batting 0.00 :(

Jeremy super item very cool!

Jim yep Murphy is in there can I count this towards a blank back example in my Murphy run? :rolleyes:

Picked up a couple of cigar box labels w/N28 art on them including Ewing and John L. Sullivan, and a near set of cowboy exhibit cards. Whiffed on the rest, though I did make a valiant run at a Louis-Schmeling II full ticket.

Wow, I see a pattern forming here. I've been edged out lately on several lots by the Wonkaman. Methinks our tastes in cards must be getting very similar. Nice pick up!

John -you can count it as your blank back...:D


Jeremy-very cool item...:cool: thanks for sharing

Heritage (and Goodwin)
 

I managed to win the t206 Polar Bear lot in Heritage, and (somewhat surprisingly) won the Magie in the Goodwin auction. I also won the t206 Duffy AB 460 in the latter. Time to write some checks...

So who won all those Uzits? Please come forward and claim your bragging rights!:D

LOL oh no Tbob that's not good. :) This week I'll switch to 87 Topps next week I'm back into pre-war I say we switch weeks I'll take this week you switch to 93 Topps next week. That way we can give each other a chance. :)

Nice Beckley cabinet, Jay. Congrats!
