My opinion is that the person who won the 7.5 Koesters got a steal. When I saw the closing price, I was shocked because a 1921 E121 in a 3 grade usually goes for nearly 20K. I have a feeling that everyone was saving their money for the partnerone Heritage auction that came 10 days later, and when folks got kicked off the items they wanted, the moved to the SGC 6 Koesters. That's what happened to me. I basically ignored the previous Heritage auction since I was trying to win a few cards in the Partnerone auction, especially the Wm Paterson Ruth, but got crushed and came away with nothing. If I knew that was going to happen, I would have tried to win something in the previous Heritage auction.
