Goldin

[hcv123]

After all the speculation - THAT is the "8 figure" lot - time will tell. As a couple have already suggested (more of a lay opinion here) - I don't see close to 8 figures - unless of course "figures" refers to 8 presidents living during the time the autograph book is from!

Like a joke - if you have to explain it......

Rumor is that they found a semi truckload of items that were being sold by Goldin on HSN 20 years ago. They are easily worth 8 figures.

[conor912]

Apparently he's not announcing it until September 6 now.

There's a fine line between building anticipation, and annoying the hell out of people...

Hey they must do what is in the best interest for the consignor

As long as there are least five zeroes at the start of the 8 figures.

The way Goldin has built this up... claiming it will hit 8 figures... there is no way we will be disappointed. It's going to be something incredible, but I have no idea what

Fact Check: Did Goldin claim it will go for 8 figures, or is that just something said in jest in this thread that has been perpetuated?

Not to discount it, but 2nd hand.

I'm more interested in what the Buyers Premium will be as opposed to the item itself. Goldin is going to get a nice chunk of change.

Nothing second hand about it. It is from Goldin himself from the forum thread you quoted earlier.

...we are not able to disclose the item yet, however it will be the first sports related collectible to have sold for 8 figures, no question.

Indeed.

Sports related could be anything...my first thought was a car. Maybe first Indy 500 or NASCAR winning car?

That is definitely not Goldin's 8 figure announcement.
