Default hmmm

not easy to re-sell items from Edwards and Legendary so quickly. It's most often that the price with vig is high and the item has been seen by most of them what's interested. There are exceptions. One of my favorite dealers got his start at shows going from dealer's table to dealer's table making sales from one to the next. It takes great knowledge of the items and the market. Same case here although sometimes someone has second thoughts about an item they didn't win and will pony up to get it. Mostly it's about the passage of time - at least for me. I don't deal on the "whale scale" - or have connections to celebrities (other than Leon) and the "closet buyers" - a market in which "quick flips" from a prestiege auction might be successful.
