Heritage Auction Wins

My bids also went nowhere--but I do like the half-hour close for each lot. In general the many top-graded e90s went well under estimates. Does it seem caramel cards--speaking very very generally and not including CJs--have been in decline? Also, a lot of he most pricey CJs also failed to reach low end of estimates--when they said "2000 and up" they were often lucky to reach $1500.

I was going after the Hugh Duffy N173 but lost out. I thought it went for a really nice price for a HOFer.

The Glasscock N173 was gorgeous. Really strong price for that one.

Great pickups so far guys.

Ya' never know on estimates. I saw some that were low. I am not sure if I am going backward or forward with this one? And I don't know what my focus is going to be in the Luckey Collection II but this will be in it. I said yesterday that I thought high grade collecting was fine. And then there is collector grade....again, with no disrespect meant to us collectors. It's only terminology...

Congrats on the e90-1 Young Leon. I was able to see this card firsthand at a couple of Heritage auction previews and it's even more striking in person. One of my favorite cards in the hobby and easily the nicest example I've ever seen or am likely to see.
