Congratulations I know you've been looking for a while. Which one did you get?

[Huck]

I was interested in the two Tango egg cards but ended up not bidding. One, I really had no idea how to properly value the cards and two, I have a hard time starting another set when I have yet to finish the 1954 Red Heart set.

I was interested in hearing if $720 (comm included) is a good deal for the two cards?

Thanks.

Nada. But was happy to go to the White Plains show today and pick up a nice Gehrig card. Didn't pay a 20% premium either.

[Cmount76]

I was lucky enough to win the Dummy Taylor lot of cards including (2) C46 Imperials, E91A Caramel, Fan Craze, and a few Souvenir Post Cards.

I was shut out on 4 others...

How was the show? Wanted to go, but it wasn't in the cards with the Mets game on Friday night and birthday parties to attend all weekend.

The premium is just part of the price. Right, Bob??

[T206Collector]

I am super thrilled to add another unique pose signed T206 to my collection. Welcome aboard Mr. Sullivan!



I am also really excited to have picked up the only signed Obak I've ever seen, and it's the future 1925 AL MVP Roger Peckinpaugh!



AND... I even added a pair of signed M101-2 from the Doc Steen collection to bring my total number up to 11!





I also picked up a dupe of Larry Doyle if anyone is interested in picking one up...

[GregMitch34]

Amazing to me how many people even here complain about paying 15% or 20% "premium" or "extra" in an auction. As you know, just means, in most cases, that the hammer price was 15% or 20% lower.

I think it's market price for these Tango Eggs, or a bit high, but not much. But these are among those cards most commonly found, whereas you'll never complete a set with several other cards known from only one or two examples.

If anyone won Old Judge lot #69, I would like to trade for or purchase the Donnelly card. Please email me at oldjudge@gmail.com if you can help.

Thanks--Jay

I appreciate the reply. From my research, I knew the Beschler was the most commonly found. I had no knowledge has to how many specimens have graded at the 7 and 8 level. The cards are nice looking.

No idea what your green Cobb looks like but you can take the one last night out of the equation for relative sales. No other 5 or 6 will come close to that one for a long, long time if ever. Congrats on the Matty, a superb card.

[Jdoggs]

Nice Gehrig and mantle.

[rhettyeakley]

Won 2 lots, A Cameo Pepsin HOFer and a mix lot w/ really tough types mixed in...

[Brian Van Horn]

[mechanicalman]

I think this was an impulse purchase to try to just win "something." Never a great strategy, but still happy to pick up a CJ.

[pokerplyr80]

This was from the other auction that ended last night.

[shammus]

Thought I'd be shut out this year but managed to sneak one card out late...

e94 printing oddities and errors are very few in number so I'm happy to have this one!

Sam nice pick up of the CJ Lajoie! and Blair that jersey if freikin awesome! You gotta take some pictures when you put it on.

Does anyone know who won the A.J. Reach tin advertising sign? I thought it was the one of the coolest items in the whole shebang. And at $45k one of the priciest!

I was able to finish my '14 CJ set by locking down the JJ! and decided to upgrade my favorite all-time card to this PSA 5 Cobb. Won some upgrades to my CJ set and a nice T206 Cobb Red and #181 Goudey Ruth. My favorite item of the night though was the type I photo of Tris Speaker with his trademark sneer.

Hey A.J.,

Thanks for the nice words! I'll do that for sure.

You scored big-time in this auction - way to go on the 1914 CJs!

Great, great stuff.

Cheers,
Blair

Happy to see someone on the board picked up the T206 Cobb, enjoyed it for many years.

Same $1,000 charge for shipping to UK. I imagine that it is a placeholder -- as even if there are customs / other issues to solve for, it likely is not $1,000 precisely
