In the recently completed Huggins and Scott auction, 1915 Cracker Jack cards were offered and all sold. There were many bids registered. Both the SGC 5 Tinker and SGC 5 Wheat were sold at above average prices.... they were grouped with other HOF`s. Now I see them listed on e-bay starting at 9.99. I did not look through all of the recent ebay listings yet to see if others also were listed. Can some one who is smarter than I explain this ? very curious. Also I did win a couple of lots and my cards arrived today all badly scratched up. What`s the story on these guys? I don`t like to be negative but what the heck is going on? |

I received my H&S wins last week and was extremely happy with the price I won my cards at and their level of communication and shipping. |

You are saying you saw some cards get sold and now they are on ebay. Have you told anyone else about this? It's preposterous.... |

My guess is the winner of the lot only needed one card and is turning around and selling the others through EBay to recoup some of the outlay. Or, selling all individually to try to make a quick profit. |

What's unusual about buying a group of cards, even high-dollar ones, and selling the ones you don't want on eBay? If the $9.99 starting bid is a red flag for you, it shouldn't be. I think the general feeling is that a low starting bid doesn't play a role in the final price of a quality card. |

Ok?........ Leon, please take the time to check this out. Red flag you say? Look what the Wheat group sold for. Who is consignments? I`m just saying it is very curious .... |

What is the red flag about a group of cards selling, even for a high price, and then being sold again individually? I guess I am not seeing your point. On the scratched holders, if the auction house caused it, then I think they would work with you on getting them reholdered if you approached them in a professional manner. Also, while it's not mandatory it's usually better to try to work things out privately, as a matter of courtesy, before posting on the board...... |

When you wait excitedly for your lots to come and then they show up packaged together without sleeves and marred up its very disappointing and I would not have thought that could possibly happen....I was,.. frankly shocked and maybe over reacted....... |

Lots of auction companies for whatever reason do not bother to clean up or replace scratched holders that they get from consignors. Given the trivial cost one would think they would. |

I hear you but you have to look at the post and what the perception of it would be. Not fair to H & S in my opinion. I am only one person and could be wrong. Hope you win the cards on ebay. |

I bought the lot below and after the auction was over someone posted how crazy the buyer was for spending $645 per card. I really only wanted the Hornsby. But, I wanted it bad!!! After I got the lot I immediately listed the majority of the cards on EBay at 99 cent starting bids. Several of the auctions went crazy. Many of those cards were first cards/rookies. Based on the prices I got for the cards and the value of a couple others I kept, I got the Hornsby for about $400. The Hornsby now rests in a SGC 30 holder. |

I received my first H&S winnings last week, professionally packaged and well protected. Final price was less than my high bid, so I was very happy and will be bidding in future auctions! |

I too am very happy with my H & S purchases, and of course I'll be bidding in the future. Everything came packaged very well, their communication is fantastic, and it was just an overall great experience (as always with them). |

H&S is as good as it gets. Like others before, not really sure I get the gist of your argument. |

I don't see the problem, either. This is what makes the hobby thrive (besides the Net54 dinner ). Huggins & Scott auctions are, if not the most, then one of the most reputable auction houses on earth. |
