Wow. E121 rarities.

I was happy to win the McGraw Type 3 PSA 5 last night at what I thought would be a fair price for a Type 1. Was blown out of the water on O'Leary and the other rarities tonight. I wish I had gone higher on Hoyt.

I was in the running on Hoyt and had my bid set to go and it went right past me. Already have the E121-120 so was looking for the equivalent in series of 80. There were other cards I wanted more so I didn't bid as much as I should have to win. These auctions were like the "national" to me as E121-80 carda are all I would be looking for anyway.

Ken, Similar to you there were other cards I wanted more and so bid too little on Hoyt. I initially set what might have ultimately been a winning snipe on Hoyt but lowered it this morning thinking I would win some of the rarities and not wanting to spread my finances too thin. Ha! I agree with you this was the Super Bowl for E121-80 collectors. Simply an amazing group. Scot

We should contact leon and have a Net54 "National" event. Like a 3 day event where everybody lists anything they have available and advertise it as a true National baseball card show. The exhibit halls will be our living rooms and offices and no hotel or air fare to pay. None of this Chicago to Cleveland to Baltimore baloney. A real National baseball card show over the internet. Even better is the price of admission is well, Free!!! I realize we have BST already but this would be separate from BST.

We would need to figure out a way that everyone can create their card listings in mass and they all get posted as a group for everyone to see and the event goes on for 3 days. As we live all over the country, it would be a true "National" baseball card show. People can figure out how to pay and we send cards or trades to our trading/ buying card partners.

Ken and Val,

We might need a coder to make the Virtual National concept take-off.

Trae Reagan where are you?
