Alas, E-Bay isn't just about the scams (just mostly). Anyone make any great buys on the site last month? Great seller? Great bargain? An undiscovered gem? A last-second snipe that left the underbidders in tears? |

I know you're sick of looking at the two N162s...I think they were both in August. |

Im not sure if it was a good deal or not, but my favorite card purchased in august was a T206 Speaker (I think it is a great looking SGC 40): |

Maybe not as great a deal as Lee's purchases, but the last one of these I had in comparable condition, I sold for $500 over 4 years ago! At least, since it is a "keeper", I won't have much $ tied up in it (and, it is Cobb's "Rookie" from 1907). |

Scott, good thing I was spending all my money on the Thorpe card, otherwise I would have gone after that Cobb. Great picture. |

I had a very productive August adding 12 Obaks to the three sets I'm building (1909, '10, and '11). My highlight came at the end of the month when I snagged this decent 1909 Browning. |

After holding out for some time to acquire one for under $1,000, Greg at BOTN sold me this beauty in a GAI 5 holder for under $950 on ebay. I immediately had it crossed over into an SGC 60 holder. The best part is my wife picked up the tab for the card because it was our anniversary on August 16. |

I could list all of my Summer ebay wins in one paragraph. The best deals were a Blum's Baseball Bulletin Supplement of Jim McAvoy (uncataloged I think) and an early Baseball Magazine Premium of Honus Wagner. |

T206: I thought I was the only one who ran that scam! My wife knows there's no way she's ever gonna find something that I like (I'm so particular and what we collect is generally so obscure and difficult to find it's pointless to even give her a wish list), so I reason with her, why not just let me pick out what I want and give her the pleasure of paying for it (although we have joint-checking, so I guess we're both paying for it, but I don't care as long as I get to spend more on memorabilia free of guilt). |

Hey Scott, you cheated, your purchase was in September, the thread says August. |

You did get the best deals on the Matty's however! Just sent the $ out today. It was from a Zero feedback eBay (probably one of the reasons I was able to get it so cheap). However, the artbaron recently sold some nice cards under his old eBay handle and had 100% feedback from them, so I am hoping everything works out. To be honest, my max bid was MUCH HIGHER than the minimum I won it for! eBay is funny: sometimes you get good deals, sometimes you don't. |

It's SO clean, back too--that tiny spot left color isn't on the card. |

I've bought a few raw T201's. They usually work out if you don't pay so much for them. I did pretty good with this one. SGC 60 |

That was a great deal on the T201 Bergen/Wheat. I'd have been a little disappointed if I were the seller. I'd have been happy as heck if I were the buyer! |
