Anyone pay attention to the closing price of those 1971's Last Night

I don't really know what to say about that

    I bought 17 of them. None above $50 and the lowest was a PSA 8 Steve Kline at $11.

    Considering a board member just sold me a PSA 8 Dick Allen at average VCP of $164, I was shocked to see it hit the $300 level. A few of the low pops were off the charts.

    The psa 8 Powell went for over $200
  • What the heck is going on ? Here is just a few I had on my watch list.


    1971 Topps Nolan Ryan PSA 8 - $1025.00 VCP $419.37

    1971 Topps Brooks Robinson PSA 8 - $1100.00 VCP $383

    Some of those went for crazy prices. I needed a few of the low pop 8's and I bid over VCP and I was not even close.

    Certainly take some analytics from those sales. I ended up with 5 of them, one 8, others 8.5, and one 9, Palmer. Won F Robinson 8. 5 (pop2; go figure only sold for 10% over VCP) and three others.

    With the R. Jackson; Pop 135, relatively low for the 8's in that year. Only three bidders after $451 (not counting u**r, professional retractavist). Maybe l**l thinks the card is an 8.5? Who knows. Didn't look like an 8 to make an aggressive run at.

    The Ryan; only two bidders after $475.00, and this card sells about twice a month. And....u**r wins with 28 retractions. Another card that didn't really POP to me. But with a POP report of 500, the final sale of $1,025.00 may be the high for several years. Over double VCP, on a card that sells twice a month with a POP report over 500. I hope I'm wrong. Then again, we all thought google was expensive at 500.

    Yaz/Clemente goes way over VCP to u**r again. Only 3 bidders on Clemente after the $705 mark, but another card double VCP.

    These were the only cards I felt bidding on. As noted previously, unless the commons are bundled, I'm usually not a buyer, and the other stars didn't look appealing, IMHO.

    The crappy bidding is actually almost funny to me at this point.image

    Most cards looked off center to me especially the Rose. My Brooks Robinson was much nicer than that one. I am sure they will be in the next auction, lets see if we can match up some serial numbers.

    I was able to upgrade my Grich rookie. Some of the prices last night were pretty intense.
    I collect Cal Ripken cards, T206, E95, E210, R319.

    Nice pick ups! The Palmer looks lika a 10.

    The three high bidders all had perfect feedback and no retractions. -------.u**r on the other hand has 28 retractions.
