I would echo being patient and buying the right Cobb rather than the first Cobb. I only paid $1,600 for this beauty a few years ago:

Awesome. Thanks for posting I love seeing you alls pick ups as well and the stories behind. I’m so ready for tax time and start more serious looking to pick up my first.

No need to wait for an auction if you find one reasonably priced here or on Ebay. They come up often enough. I agree with others that a decent 2, or maybe an SGC 2.5 should be in your range.

Nice ^^^
I had planned to win the Sacco River 1.5 Pied350.....but i must of under-estimated myself. Theres still demand!!!! @2800+18%BP....3304 had to be peak market. It was surely a nice card too.

Thanks guys. My advice is to get the Cobb you want when you can get it. But don’t buy any old Cobb you can afford.

Exactly, unless you plan on it being a hole filler, which I have done before. It's not really the best strategy if you think another nice one will come up very soon. But the best specimens of our cards will keep and gain value more than nominally nice ones, in my opinion. And I predict eye appeal over grade will continue it's momentum for pre-war. I don't know about the rest so much.
