Post a link. I didn't see any steals - I thought everything was priced strong.

I believe this was what he was talking about. I typically don't buy autographs, so I'm not sure what is considered a "steal". If that is a steal, I'm glad I don't venture out to the autograph world. What does his auto normally go for?

+1 for that. I'm not sure $5K for a pencil Ruth cut and put into a modern card is a steal. Hopefully the buyer is happy with it, but "steal" isn't my first thought here.

I think the consignor was the winner there.

Figuratively or literally?

That card would have sold for over 8500 on eBay. guaranteed! worse Ruth cuts have sold for more on eBay. The consignor is only a winner if he pulled the card. Otherwise, he lost a significant amount of money. A topps sterling Cut Auto sold for almost 10,000 within the last 2 months. A Razor Ruth Auto sold for almost 8,000 on eBay recently. yes, the buyer can flip this card on eBay now for a 40-50% gain! Kudos to the buyer, he got a steal!
