Scott was that Southern Leaguer off ebay?

mlbvintage · January 11, 2007 11:02PM

I would like to join the group please. Thanks

<< Scott was that Southern Leaguer off ebay? >>

Dave
It wasn't, it was from a guy on the Net 54 board.

asphaltman76 · January 12, 2007 5:17AM

Question for you guys into the rare backs....what would you be willing to pay for a Tinker (bat off shoulder) in a PSA 2 with a rare black lenox back?? I know these backs go for a premium, and there was the common T206 yesterday in a PSA 3 that went for $500 some odd dollard with a black lenox back?

Bunker · January 13, 2007 12:28AM

If you havent been over to net54 lately checkout this post. It is pretty cool:

From Net54

Does anyone here have any to share?

gosteelers · January 14, 2007 3:49AM

Nice stuff, as always guys! Here's one of my latest pickups:

lamontcarter · January 14, 2007 6:26AM

Very nice card gostillers. Congrats.

MajorDanby · January 14, 2007 6:40AM

has everyone gotten their invites to the group? thanks

lamontcarter · January 14, 2007 10:03AM

I did but I want to make sure I know how to use it. Is it basically a group e-mail address that if you have/are looking for a card you can just kick an e-mail to the group?

sonoranmonsoon · January 14, 2007 10:09AM

I love my T206 collection. I will probably never come close to completing it, but it has been a joy trying!

MajorDanby · January 14, 2007 11:43AM

<< Is it basically a group e-mail address that if you have/are looking for a card you can just kick an e-mail to the group? >>

Yep. Use it as a tool to facillitate t206 sales and trades.

Thats a really nice clean Back on that Hundu. A really nice addition!
Congrats!
RayB

lamontcarter · January 15, 2007 9:59AM

Not the Waddell, just the Chase

bengineno9 · January 15, 2007 12:14PM

Please stop showing off those Bresnahan portraits. You guys are making me a jealous! Just lost out on another last night.

How come you guys aren't joining the Yahoo group that Noli set up?

lamontcarter · January 19, 2007 12:25PM

Nothing exciting, more to get the thread back to the first page.

mlbvintage · January 20, 2007 6:29AM

Thanks

gosteelers · January 21, 2007 2:51AM

I have the following for trade. Looking for a comparable PSA 3 (somewhat tougher back) or common PSA 4 back. Thanks, Mark

MajorDanby · January 21, 2007 12:02PM

seriously...did everyone get the invite? Or did you think about it and thought that the group would be not worthwhile to join?

MajorDanby · January 21, 2007 12:02PM

asphaltman76 · January 21, 2007 8:55PM

I do have some cards I'll be offering to the "group members" probably later this week on a first come first serve basis before offering to anyone else...or before throwing to the wolves at ebay

RayBShotz · January 24, 2007 11:11PM

This addition gives me a complete Lajoie subset. PSA 1 with nice eye appeal.

RayB

asphaltman76 · January 25, 2007 12:18AM

That is a really nice Lajoie 1 Ray....I'll be posting my Walter Johnson as well as soon as it gets here...

MajorDanby · January 25, 2007 4:56AM

lajoies are really tough to get at a a reasonable price. I have yet to find a lajoie card with eye appeal at the prices i buy at. It seems he's just one step behind the big HOF'ers (Cobb, johnson, mathewson) and a few steps above the rest (Walsh, Collins, Joss).

I would create another pricing category with guys like evers, tinker and brown...but, it appears lajoie cards go even more than those guys.

asphaltman76 · January 25, 2007 5:08AM

For anyone interested I listed cards over on the other site. I was having trouble getting into yahoo today!

RayBShotz · January 25, 2007 7:40AM

Major - You are absolutely right on about the Lajoie cards. Very strong price wise. If you ever find a good deal on a decent card, jump on it.
RayB

lamontcarter · January 25, 2007 10:31AM

Nice for a 2 IMO:

Some others:

mkg809 · January 25, 2007 10:37AM

Nice Turner for a 2. Back damage?

lamontcarter · January 25, 2007 10:46AM

Thanks.

No back damage, I keep looking at it trying to figure out why it's only a 2.

bengineno9 · January 25, 2007 12:24PM

MD,
Sent you a PM asking for an invite. Never heard back. Maybe i'm not cool enough or something.

MajorDanby · January 26, 2007 3:47AM

<< Sent you a PM asking for an invite. Never heard back. Maybe i'm not cool enough or something. >>

I did send the invite. I sent an invite to all those who requested to be in the group. And i ask above, twice, if anyone did or did not receive an invite.

I will send all the invites out again, just in case you didnt get one already.

I think mine may have gone to my Junk Mail originally, so maybe that's why some people didn't get theirs?

MajorDanby · January 26, 2007 5:30AM

I just sent out the invites. Let me know if they dont go through. thanks

bengineno9 · January 26, 2007 5:42AM

MD,
Did you do it by PM or email? If it was by email maybe i overlooked it. Didn't find anything in my PM box. I did send you a pm awhile back though. Thanks

MajorDanby · January 26, 2007 5:43AM

ben...i sent the invites via email. The email will contain a password to get into the group. let me know if you dont get it. thanks

RayBShotz · January 26, 2007 8:55AM

Lamont - Real nice group of cards. Those all have killer eye appeal.
Congrats!
RayB

lamontcarter · January 26, 2007 9:13AM

Thanks Ray, I appreciate the kind words.

I've heeded your advice....................eye appeal is the most important thing regardless of the grade. I am absolutely ecstatic about the Waddell (and I think I got a pretty good deal to boot as that card can garner a strong price)

Regards,

Scott

MajorDanby · January 26, 2007 9:15AM

scott...just remember, stay away from the paperloss/MK backed T206s!!! Besides, Ray hates those anyway

So, be pure to his advice!

yawie99 · January 26, 2007 12:32PM

Joined the group today, guys. Also have two new additions. I actually already had both a Mattern and a Konetchy Glove High, but my old Mattern has tape on back (beautiful front, though, if anybody needs one) and I can't resist Hindu backs - especially on St. Louisans.

asphaltman76 · January 28, 2007 1:43AM

My first Johnson...can't get much happier...(unless I add a Matty)...also another solid looking PSA 1 from the same deal.

lamontcarter · January 28, 2007 5:05AM

Dave
Congratulations on your Big Train pickup, it's really nice looking. The three cards that I want really bad from this set are a Chase Pink Portrait, Evers Portrait and that card. Congrats again.

A couple commons but with nice stories. I picked up this Doyle off of Beckett for $25! The guy listed the cert # and was very responsive to e-mails which alleviated some of my concerns about getting scammed. I paid through paypal so I wasn't all that worried especially given the amount of money involved. The card arrived Saturday, it's nice to get a "deal" every now and then.

Bought this card off ebay for $26, no mention in the auction of what kind of back it was and much to my surprise it's a nice clean Old Mill.

RayBShotz · January 28, 2007 6:29AM

Dave - Great looking Johnson!!

Lamont - Nice deal on nice cards as well; especially a PSA 4 for that price.
RayB

yawie99 · January 28, 2007 9:07AM

That Doyle looks like a horrible 4, but the card itself is still a decent buy for $25. And it's always nice to receive a card whose non-Piedmont/non-Sweet Caporal back is an unexpected surprise. Ya done good.

asphaltman76 · January 28, 2007 10:54AM

Thanks for the comments guys. Next question is which one to go after next...Matty portrait or Ty Cobb (red)?

RayBShotz · January 29, 2007 6:43AM

My humble T206 set officially went 50% complete today!!

It's been an incredible journey which I wouldn't trade for anything. Thanks all for carrying the torch of this thread forward, and for the encouragement along the way. On to the much tougher half

My T206 set

Thanks.
RayB

lamontcarter · January 29, 2007 9:24AM

Ray
All I can say is wow and congratulations. I think I'm at a little under 10% right now. You have an impressive collection.

Steve
Thanks for the kind words. The Doyle is pretty presentable but I agree that it might be a tad overgraded, however I've seen 4's that are worse.

I just picked up this Gibson. I think it might be my favorite card as of right now. Not sure why but I think the image is cool.

Thanks.

Scott

yawie99 · January 29, 2007 11:44AM

The Gibson is indeed a great card. Actually, a lot of his cards are. He's got some cool E cards in catching gear.

asphaltman76 · January 29, 2007 12:38PM

My latest additions to the registry....

This one has an MK....light pencil mark at the top....shoot, could have easily been erased before being submitted...lol At any rate...$47.

This one in the end cost me $15.50....

A pair of the southern leaguers I had sent in...these two I'm keeping and not selling...
