PWCC Auction, T206 Madness

[Bobbycee]

Tonight's auction closed with this insanity: a T206 PSA 5 Mullin (horizontal) sold for $3,241. Went from $971 to over $3,000 in the last 8 seconds. 32 bids, identities protected. What am I missing here?

I've been relegated to the sidelines with this insanity. This can't continue, can it?!

Hey Bob- The Mullin card auctioned tonight has a Piedmont 350 back, which pretty hard to get.

I did see that but $3,000+? The card had a print mark or chip on his face too.
Maybe 2 guys bidding against each other at the last minute to complete an Elite 11 subset?

A Piedmont 350 Mullin is an elite 11. A psa 5 sold for 5,000 in August in the David Hall auction. This price was actually a "good deal"

You are welcome to say that but per the rule at the top of every page you need to have your name out here. Thanks..

Personally I think that is an insane price for that kind of common but I also understand the collecting bug. Been there done that.

Jim is my name, didn't realize my name was needed. Is that because of what I said? I am new here, but probably have over 30 posts, and have never been told that before? Sorry if I was against protocol. Also, I have seen examples and experienced their shill bidding first hand.

It's old school here, quite refreshing actually. If you're going to say something about somebody, good or bad, you gotta stand behind it with your name. Keeps the crazies from posting stupid stuff and hiding behind an alias.

I figured it was easy just to throw my name out there. It's easier than having to watch what I say.

I understand not realizing. That said this statement is at the top of every page, in bold letters=

If you write anything concerning a person or company your full name needs to be in your post or obtainable from it.

People don't see it a lot of times. Also, as it says, your full name needs to be out here. That means your full name not only an initial. You can scramble it if you want to in order to prevent searches finding it. Thanks...

I use the Tapatalk app, and do not see the statement. That said, I now know, and I will follow proper requirements, thank you.

It's a longtime rule. People can post anonymously, but if someone posts critically about a specific person or auction house they have to use their name. A rule to keep people honest.

I'm sure what you posted was shared in thought, and said, by others.

Welcome, if you're new.

i was the underbidder on the Mullin and disappointed I didn't win it, although I know it went to a good home.
