The Leon Luckey Type Card Collection – Bidding Ends on Thursday - August 13, 2015

[wonkaticket]

Good luck Leon.

Peter know you haven't had a lot of time to correct since it was brought to your companies attention back in May. But as pointed out by myself and the owner of the other example. This isn't the only recorded or known example of this card as your description states. Once again FYI......

I pointed something out to Heritage in this auction as well and they had me send scans but never corrected the description or reached out to me again. Money trumps all.

What was it Jason?

I thank John for that info above too.

Just got a bunch of e-mails. Thought I was popular for a second. I was greeted by some outbid notices.

The "unique" back of lot 79402. I have one just like it.



On July 16 - they responded but nothing was done to change the description and no further correspondence.

Thanks Jason. I personally didn't keep up with each of the 3-4 different backs of those particular cards. Mike P. is the one I go to for those questions. I appreciate the good scan too. If someone wins this, and based their decision on that info and now doesn't want it, I won't force the sale. It's that easy. thanks again....

ps...I should add, I have to run everything by Heritage but we have always seen eye to eye in these areas.

Yeah, my point is that Heritage had the opportunity back when this card was $1000 cheaper to correct the description and they didn't. The idea that you will negate the sale after the fact, whatever. I go out of my way to send the scans and am communicated with that they are forwarding to the catalogue and director of the auction and nothing is done.

So, I guess I just sell my "unique" back in a couple of years with a similar description. If I do it with Heritage they won't ask any questions and will ignore the person who ends up buying your card.

Time is a flat circle.

[wonkaticket]

Leon, you're welcome.

As an FYI I notified Derek on May 14th. McKee also told Peter and the team quite sometime ago. Their response to him was along the lines of because his wasn't graded they couldn't count his card. Even more odd this card along with Dan's near set and can be seen in an article written by Dan that was featured in an issue of Old Cardboard.

Dan since then had the card graded....seems that still wasn't enough. Great card either way. Just hate to see somebody buy what they think is the only one when there is clearly another well known example.

Cheers,

John

Man, that T213-3 Red Cobb is going like gangbusters!

[BeanTown]

Yes indeed as a few more Cobbs will be seeing some action later! So, much for the type 3 Red Cobb staying down. Bids placed and coffee is brewing for tonight!

Wow, it sure is. I assume that you aren't bidding on it Jeff.

Neither am I, though I have some other cards that are just about out of range for me.
