I bid on it but didn't win. I think that at first, when he made the Hall, everyone wanted one. Then most of those folks got one....now the prices have subsided a bit due to demand (which I always say is the most important value estimator). Great looking card and congrats to the winner.

I didn't bid in the auction but now I wish I had. Some great bargains were had. I have to wonder if the auction running smack over the national didn't hurt bidder turnout.

Nice pick-ups everyone.

I've wanted to pick up some Fatimas for quite some time. I was happy to win this lot.

I also had the Dreyfuss and the two Cracker Jacks lots on my watch list, but I decided to save some money for the next auction.

Best regards,

Joe

One of the cards I always follow is the Ed Delahanty Mayo Cut Plug. I know cards in BVG holders often don't bring the same prices as identical cards in PSA or SGC holders, but the Delahanty BVG4 in this auction seemed like a huge bargain at $2,700 with the BP. REA and Clean Sweep have each sold "good" versions of the Delahanty card in recent months for $2,600 and $2,100, respectively.

Interesting thought.

I guess it depends what you're after. All of the lots that I had placeholder bids on went high, IMO.

Leon, well said.

It's amazing what happens to the prices when a few people are no longer in the picture.
