“Blue Chip” Cards

I was watching the PSA 7 1914 CJ Alexander. This copy sold at auction in 2018 for $20,800 at Heritage, the guy turned down an offer of 40K in February 2021 through the Heritage site, and last night it sold for a little over 27K.

That guy should have taken that $40K offer!

Almost all the CJs other than those 3 biggies did pretty well last. I think Scott is right that few people looking to buy a 1914 CJ Jax, Matty, Cobb, look to eBay. Many on this board, including me, in that thread polling where you get your cards, indicate that they rarely use eBay for acquisitions. That said, it may also be the economy. We will know more in a few weeks when heritage closes.

As an aside, the 1.5 Jax in Heritage has better eye appeal than the 5 that sold last night.
