  0 for 6. And I'm okay with it. Winning prices were ridiculous.

  Not completely as I acquired the four top coins that I was after, but I will admit that I was willing to go to $600k total on the 1799 $1 and lost out by a mere 35%. Gulp.

  A few grand is a landmark event for me, I guess I'm out.

  0 for 6 myself. Some things went for as much as 2x what I was willing to pay.
  
  I think this sale was a bit of a bubble...I hope the people who bought those coins really love them because at those price points they will probably need to own them for a while... Or maybe I'm just a sore loser

  Since I am more of a key date buyer, there was nothing in this sale that I liked that I could afford. (there are two bigge's for me in the upcoming fun sale)
  
  Was going to bid on a nice type coin or two , but prices went nuts, so I passed.
  
  Agree with above comments, hopefully everyone enjoys their purchases, because it will be a while in most cases before they could re-coup the money paid out.

  0 for 6 here. I stretched on a couple I thought were nice but apparently didn't stretch enough!!!
  
  Bring on the next sale

  0 for 6. There were a couple of inexpensive coins that I stretched for just for the provenance and I lost even those.

  Speaking for the other side, I may have stretched too far! Time will tell I suppose.

  I got off the schneid with a couple of relatively inexpensive coins, but nothing to write home about (or even necessarily post on the forum). One will be cracked out and put in my Barber dime album.

  I got one.
  
  1 for 12 on Morgans.
  
  I set a budget per coin and walked away from the computer today. I didn't want to get sucked into buying for more than I thought a coin was worth.
  
  My coin is not a Col Green Example, but just Newman.
