Srik, congrats on the Uzit! One of my favorite backs, and might even be rarer than Drum.

Seems like T206 printing errors are roaring back, some very robust prices- Criger Front Miscut, Rudolph Upside Down Back, Hummel multi strike, Shaw Ghost, Lash Bitters, even the low-grade Nodgrass. All very strong.

"T206 Magie error PSA 3 closed at $33.6k. It was a great looking example, but a little annoying since my 3, which was very nice in its own right, only brought $29.5k in ML’s spring auction. Considering I have a number of t206s coming up in their summer auction, I am trying to decide if it was condition difference that justifies the extra 10%, or does REA bring better prices on T206 than memory lane. I think it’s a little of both."

Ryan, IMO it's neither. I feel yours was slightly better condition, although they are both very nice and comparable. I also think ML and REA are both top shelf and bring very similar prices. I think it's just a slight increase in the market. It's a very rare and desirable card, and people who are priced out on Planks go hard on Magie.

Also, a 10% difference isn't that much...if it was 20-30% more, than that would make for an interesting conversation. To me, they are comparable condition, and the auction results feel quite comparable too. Again, I'm thinking there's a slight uptick in the market over the last few months.

Good info on those, both definitely have been quite improved.
