Picked up a couple T206 Lajoies with common backs, but nothing too exciting on that front. I bought the Matty below to go with the Ruth, Gehrig and Cobb in my collection. The big names from that set are extremely affordable.
The blank back E92 of Lajoie wasn't a Baltimore pickup but rather the result of a chance I took on eBay a few months ago. After looking at it in person and concluding it's legit, I decided to get SGC's opinion and have it slabbed at the National. Nice to have a gamble pay off. (If the sellers of the cards below do not wish the scans to be posted, please contact me -- in strict confidence -- and I will remove them.) |

Gorgeous cards everyone. I know a lot of people don't like to share how much they pay for their pick ups but I wish they would. Being still new to vintage I'm always trying to gauge how much I should be paying and what a good deal is.

One reason is to protect sellers who might be friends. If I know that a seller/dealer gave me a better price than what he was willing to do for other interested buyers, I don't want to throw him under the bus by making others aware of that fact. Plus, and this reason is more of a factor, you're probably going to see a lot of these cards on the B/S/T within the next few months -- some possibly this week. Posting a price paid here would prevent the 400 percent profit some would hope to make. VintageCardPrices.com and eBay have dealt a blow to guys who flip with the hope of making 3x or 4x their money. They're not going to sabotage themselves. If it helps, I paid $130 for the Matty and $200 for the Lajoie in my post above. Last edited by Rob D.; 08-08-2010 at 06:30 PM. |

Rob, I seriously doubt any dealers showed you their "real inventory" so you should be OK.

No, no. They did. Rob always asks... in confidence.
