Ok, holy shit. I did not expect this.

So remember when I talked about selling that lot of cards based on the idea that selling your crap in a lot is much better than selling individually? Well, coincidentally, its the truth at the moment.

Wow. Glad to see that my unwanted cards now has the possibility to get me a new Peterson auto or two. Now, granted, having the publicity from this site has definitely contributed to publicity, but its still interesting to see it go for this much.

If you bid, thank you.

  2. You probably came out about the same as if you sold them individually, although you probably have less hassle since it's one transaction.

    You had 37 cards so you averaged about $5 each. I'm sure individually some would have gone much higher than $5. Some would have gone lower or not sold at all.

  3. You never know - a sports cards uncensored hater may purposely be bidding it up and not have any intention of paying it. Unlikely yes, but possible. Not that I want to make you paranoid or anything.

    Now as for the CIA and FBI monitoring your blog....

  5. Glad to here it. It's always nice to get more than you expected selling something unwanted so you can spend it on cards you do want.

  6. well it is a solid lot - a couple of good autos. and bunch of stars for the relics.

    I am a little surprised it went hi as a multi-sport auction however.

  8. Very nice. I'd do the same, but most of my GU are low end crap. I'd be truly happy to get $1 each for them, so I'd rather just trade 'em to people.

    The higher end stuff is going on Ebay this weekend, tho, so I can have money to live on.
