My apologies if this has already been linked. But the Stacks sale is online and we go live at 6pm Pacific on Wednesday August 10th. The sale is fully stocked, but MPC and nationals are especially strong.

As for me, I look forward (well, maybe not really) to staying up very late Wednesday night to try and spend some money in the StacksBowers sale.

Was it me ... or did Stacks have the minimum bids to high? Lot of lots went as "passed" with no bids or very little bid activity
It feels auctions (HA, Stacks, LK, etc.) are forcing the market vs. letting the market determine itself
Lot of times, auctions see better prices when the 'juices get flowing' and the competitive nature of auctions take hold with bidding wars ... when there are high minimum bids, hard to get those wars going ... thus I am thinking sellers are being hurt by this with no sale or just single bid sales.
what does the forum think?

+1 Of course there is the other side of the equation too, sellers may be setting a minimum bid as well. They don't want their prime material going cheap.

Starting the nationals so late is a cruel thing to do... If I knew my nationals were going to go up after 2am I would have probably waited to consign them to an east coast sale.
as to the opening bids ('reserves') - as a seller, in this climate they're a must... i consigned some notes... some did well, some did very well... but the 'reserve' is a nice safety net
Anyway, here we go:
Yes, it was a long night watching as Stacks worked their way through the Obsoletes, MPCs, Type Notes, etc. while waiting for the Nationals. I have to give auctioneer Jim Fitzgerald a lot of credit - watching on my PC, he was obviously trying to move things along and the break just before the Nationals was mercifully short. Just before they reached the New York notes, I received the phone call from my Stacks phone bidder rep at 1:45 am. It was kind of funny getting a "normal" phone call in the middle of the night - any other call I had ever received at that hour was either a crank call or a major family crisis.
So, with his assistance, I nailed down all three notes. The Herkimer note went for a bit more than I really wanted to pay but I had put myself in a box on that one. You see, the Dolgeville and Herkimer notes were both signed by the same Charles Millington as President. Mr. Millington (1855-1913) was not only a bank president, he was also elected to Congress in 1908. On top of that, last Spring, thanks to a forum member, I had acquired a Serial Number 1 Brown Back on the National Bank of Poland, NY signed by the same Charles Millington as Cashier. So, obviously, getting three number 1 notes on three different banks signed by the same gentleman became a priority. Sorry, no picture of the Poland note yet - it's off with "the miracle lady" for "renovations."
After staying up late, it was all over in five minutes. I would also like to thank Manning Garrett of Stacks for handling my phone bidding - it went very smoothly and professionally. By the way, no problem on receiving the invoice in a timely manner. It was already in my email when I got up Thursday morning.

CONGRATS! some real home run nationals! well done
Those notes will make an amazing display, even with only three notes. How many banks was he affiliated with, just those three? Next chase is the different charter periods.

I got what I wanted, 1 for 1.
1. Any The Zanzibar Government note in any condition.
Just finished the world notes session. A lot of unreasonable starting prices therefore a lot of unsold notes. Sellers need to understand that there is not only the BP but also 8.5% California tax.
I got what I wanted, 1 for 1.
Wowza!

Lot #30006
Sold $141,000

Danny, I watched that one online - incredible!!! Watched those 2 bidders on the floor throwing their wallets at each other. At one time one went for a big bid increase from the 30K straight to 60K in an attempt for a knockout, but the slug-fest continued.

What portion of the buyers end up paying the California tax?
I think every person who collects from the auction or lives in California.

It was insane.
I wish one day 140k items will be in my league.
Got nice early Australian note, so I'm very pleased.
