What went? eBay 15% off - 8/28 Edition

Just thought this could be a fun thread. If you’re a seller, what did you sell? If you’re a buyer, what did you buy? Or if you’re more like me, what did you lose from your watch list?

Gone is a 1954 NY journal American Mantle, a 1948 Bowman Berra, a 2011 Topps Update Trout, 2x 1956 Topps 135 Mantle, 1962 Topps Torre, 1936 Goudey Wide Pen DiMaggio/McCarthy, 1984 Topps Mattingly

Each was on my list (most PSA, some raw) for a 15/20 off day but I ultimately couldn’t pull the trigger. Still have a lot on the watch list but sad to see these guys go, though happy for the new owners...

Curious about the rare, mysterious and beautiful 1951 Wheaties Premium Photos?

    On presale, bought a case of 16 blasters of 2018 Topps Heritage high series. $289.99 before the coupon, $246.49 after. Free shipping, no tax, no driving all over town hoping to hit the retail stores on the right day... Thank you, eBay.

    I like how you hooked that golf card.

    Bought
    as a Red Sox fan and someone who bought these in the stores as a kid back in the day

    Bought a PSA 9 68 Seaver.

    I bought a hodgepodge of relatively cheap cards to begin with for three of my resgistry sets. When the dust settled, I ended up saving over 40 bucks. I am pleased!

    Bought a 2014 Topps Heritage high number factory sealed set.

    One BIN - 2011 Topps Update Trout PSA 9 - ended on my watch list.

    I never liked Rory Mcllroy after I found out he broke off his engagement with Caroline Wozniacki and even worse, he did it over the phone--that being said, his loss and yours too!!! :D (Enjoy your card though! :) )

    @brad31 That Aaron Special looks perfect...any idea why it wasn’t a 96?

  • brad31brad31 Posts: 2,530 ✭✭✭✭✭

    Thanks Paul. Do not have it in hand yet. Will let you know if I see anything in person.

    Been on a non sport binge lately...ought 3 boxes of Topps Fright Flicks BBCE Wrapped.

    IT IS ALWAYS CHEAPER TO NOT SELL ON EBAY
  • brad31brad31 Posts: 2,530 ✭✭✭✭✭

    Aaron special in hand and I do believe it would not look out of place in a 9 holder. I have 3 of the Specials now all in SGC 92 and this is the nicest. Two of the three are recent acquisitions from EBay discounts.
