I got 6 Morgan VAMs in PCGS holders that are already attributed, for less than I expected in every case. 
When in doubt, don't.

Bids were strong on the coins that I was interested in and you had to bid "full retail" to win. I thought I would be outbid on most coins,
so i ended up buying more than I planed on, but that's okay too.

Looking at the closed vams they went pretty cheap in some cases. Now there are a few I wish I bid on.

I watched the Morgans on HA Live from start to finish, and after I saw a couple go for stupid bargain money I poised my finger above the "BID" button for all of the rest, and I think it really paid off.
I then cancelled my proxy bid and saw yesterday the hammer price without juice was less then 3000$ ???
there is so much crap going on at Heritage it's a gamble to even make a legitimate bid

I was tracking that one but wasn't bidding the head just didn't have enough brow definition.
I also liked the $10 1911-D OGH AU50 a great looking coin for the grade... yet not worth $2500 in a bidding war.

Well Dennis, you finally bought some coins from me. All my vams that were in my ebay store were sold at Heritage last night. Almost 100 of them in PCGS attributed holders, no reserve. Thanks for the bids! They could not have found a better home.
I was a bit dissapointed at the totals overall, but when I consigned them several months ago, I did not realize the economy and stock market were going to tank this low. I guess my timing left a bit to be desired. Luckily, my higher end vams sold at the last Long Beach Heritage signature auction. Those did a bit better.
