Prices were fairly strong on what I was bidding on, no bargains, but quite pleased.

The auction software seemed to work flawless even in the closing seconds of each intial period, which normally bog down.

On to tomorrow night!

the caramel sets were strong, our group lost out on the e97s and e98s...one not even close.

i was watching the weil baking ruth gai3...that was relatively cheap at 15.1k after juice. graded vgs have been in the 18k range...maybe bidders were scared of the holder.

Did anyone win lot 197 (40 OJs)? If so, please let me know if you're interested in breaking it up and selling some of the cards.

Thanks!

I was the underbidder on the 14 Matty CJ...and was pissed (it still went for a very fair price, maybe a little light). But getting two Cobbs gave me some consolation.

Jeff - I was right under you on that 1914 cj matty. It was still a very good price.

Quan - I think is was the holder that was holding back that Weil Ruth. In a PSA or SGC holder I think it is an 18k+ card.

I am interested in some of those OJs too.

Nice pickups everyone.

I was shocked at the price on the E98 lot tonight. The cards were all low grade and yet the price was very stout. Mostly 10s. It makes you want to kick yourself when you sell E98s in the BST and ebay with reasonable BINs which are 30s and 40s and then see these prices. No one to blame but myself though

If anyone knows who won the Cracker Jack master set, I would love to talk with them about the '14 Joe Jackson.

I won the 1935 Goudey lot and lost out on a few other lots.
I was the consigner of the e97 near set and 1 of the e98 near sets and was happy with the results(for a change)

Michael- that is one knockout Keeler, and it was a fun dinner last night. Everyone gets along great, we have a nice group.

Alan- congrats on the E97 and E98 sale.

from a guy who used to strictly collect T206 Polar Bear backed cards....

that might be the cleanest Polar Bear T206 I have ever seen.

Posted By: Jason L

those 2 are gorgeous!
congratulations

Do you display your cards or have a card room or anything like that?
I would imagine it would be a very very nice display!

[Archive]

Posted By: MVSNYC

thanks guys!

the Keeler is one of my all-time favorite poses...i think i got a heck of a deal on it...

Joe- thanks, i agree, that Polar Bear 8 is the cleanest i've seen as well.

i actually don't display my cards, they are put away, but i look at them & enjoy them a lot...


p.s. dinner was great, we do have an awesome group!

Well I whiff'ed and went 0'fer lastnight. So much for the market being soft. I think the prices where average to strong and very strong in some cases. Well maybe better luck tonight.

I had a few Sam Adams - so it might be me....
but from what I see that cobb looks a little off-center.

just trying to help out in case you didn't notice.

Posted By: Jeff Lichtman

Joe, yes, the Colgan's is a bit off left to right but luckily SGC doesn't downgrade on this issue due to centering.

Hey Jeff...quit hoarding all of the cool looking Ty Cobb cards.

[Archive]

Posted By: Marc S.

I think he looks much better in this example than in his T207.

Posted By: barrysloate

Joe- that is really funny. I'm sitting here reading your post and laughing. Good one!

[Archive]

Posted By: Joe D.

I was referring to the green cobby... top to bottom.

The centering looks just fine on the colgans - but the corners are a bit rounded.

[Archive]

Posted By: Jeff Lichtman

Joe, my deadpan delivery fooled you -- I had an idea you were talking about the Green Cobby. As for the Colgan's, SGC noted that because the corners were all evenly worn they would not deduct any points due to alteration.

Anyone here win the PSA 7 Pacific Coast Biscuit Peckinpaugh?

Hey Jeff,

I think I know how to fix that Cobby. When I was a kid, we had a TV that did that exact same thing all the time. Open the little door on the bottom and adjust the vertical hold.

Mike, thanks -- did you have any luck?

PS: I'll email you tomorrow about what you gave me last night.

thanks jeff, much appreciated!

i'll let you know in a few minutes about this one lot i'm on...it's a little bit of a battle.

Hey, Can you guys tell me what happened? The clock on the computer screen showed 1 minute left on the item I was bidding on and when I went to place my bid it told me that the item was closed.......No way......Did I do something wrong?

I have been watching and bidding on several lots....They all closed correctly for me...however, if you didn't refresh it, it could have counted down and you might have missed it.

[Archive]

Posted By: Richard

I bid on a lot with less than a minute to go on the clock. I was outbid by proxy and then the auction just ended at the next increment higher than my bid. The clock did not reset.

Posted By: leon

Hey guys,
I am in no way saying something didn't mess up, only the ones I was watching closely didn't.

Brian- So how did the cabal do on the E98 lot tonight?

[Archive]

Posted By: Jeff Lichtman

Richard, that happened to me last night. Luckily it occurred at the 28 minute mark...but the clock did not reset.

[Archive]

Posted By: Brian McQueen

After being shutout last night on both lots I was going after, the Cabal managed to regroup and pull out a win tonight on the e98s. I believe these were the much-heralded Skydash e98s as well

Congrats to everyone on their victories the past couple nights!

Jeff - if it happened to both of us, then it appears to be a serious bug in the software. Mastro should get that fixed as it is costing their consignors money.

I won the 1938 Goudey set to go along with the 1935 Goudey lot I won last night.

Posted By: Marty Kohler

Leon, Thanks for the reply,... but doesn`t the clock refresh itself, It did earlier........More auction questions?...To bad for seller......anyone else have a problem?

GO YARD

[Archive]

Posted By: leon

See Richard and Jeff's posts right above. They seem to have had the same issue....but yes, the clocks definitely should reset their time after a bid....is my understanding.

[Archive]

Posted By: Richard Masson

This time around, the clocks only reset if a new bid became the high bid.

[Archive]

Posted By: leon

I guess I didn't read the rules close enough....Never really heard of that one.....Fortunately, it didn't affect my lot I wanted. I would have been bummed out...

thorpe ended at 43K + juice

Posted By: Marty Kohler

OK.......But my bid didn`t move the existing bid up......I thought Mastro would have this thing down to a science by now.... they are leaving money on the table unless they are the ones bidding........Makes me wonder....
