Bill goodwin is a class act and straight shooter. If and when i decide to part ways with my prized t206s, he's the one that's going to get them.....

This is a hilarious thread. Too bad there's not a polygraph machine hooked up to Net 54.

Even if it was shill bidding, which I am not accusing Goodwin of, someone obviously did set a max bid or bided live on that item for that price. With 7 billion other people in the world it is not that outrageous to believe that someone else would want that item at a high price. As for you not recieving as high of bids, Goodwin has the ear of the World's top collectors, which I can only assume you do not. Please don't see this as an endorsement but as an opinion.

This is a great point that maybe people are overlooking, about how many M.Brown black Lenox T206's are out there. I know you can only use pop reports to attempt to "guage" what's really out there, and we never know what could reside in private collections or * what hasn't been discovered but is still out there(like those E98's in the Black Swamp Find, for example).But it's the combination of the player on the front and the scarcity of the back in general, with an estimate on "population", that actually make this a very rare card (IMO).

With that in mind, I'm actually not too suprised that someone who could afford it would pay that much.

They wrote Super Rare and We won't see one like this in some time. so it must be worth a ton of money.

Clayton,

I totally agree with your statements. It appears that most collectors have not yet fully grasped the impact of how the T206 Master Set collectors will influence pricing. Since these master set collectors are looking for an example of each front/back combination when a combination comes up that is perceived to be very rare then you can throw all reasoning out the window when it comes to prices realized. If you have multiple deep pocketed master set collectors going after the same card the crazy prices make sense.

Also if you pay attention to the prices that some scarce backs are getting in auctions like Goodwin that will also start to make sense. Even scarce backs become rare when you combine them with a player having very few examples of a specific combination available.

Thanks Jerry-

Great point on the Master Set collectors. You also may have someone going for an all known confirmed Black Lenox subset, and this would be a must have in that situation as well.

Sincerely, Clayton
