It's amazing how many nice $100 items still have no bids on them....If you are the only bid by 9PM..... You own it???

I am in as a buyer and seller. More as a seller but there are a couple items I am aggressively looking to buy. Good luck everybody!

Was a casual buyer of the Larkin bat, but letting it slip away.

Some solid items on there as always.

I haven't seen one go this long in a while...has to be excruciating for those waiting on smaller ticket items, hoping no one tops them at this hour!!

Done.

Erving 2nd season road Squires.

Final Bid(Includes Buyers Premium): $190,414

I wonder how much money I'd need to have to actually feel comfortable spending $200K on a hoops jersey? Sweet jersey though.

Should have known you were the one driving up the price on me, still think I got a good deal!

Justin, I actually cut out just shy of $200. With auction fees and lack of the #11 on the top or bottom of that bat bat, I was only in for a steal.

Congrats on the pick up! Thought you would be in on the early Griffey jersey.

I went to bed with high bids on the Lofton jersey, Jacobs Field Flag and the Winfield bat. Overnight I got out bid on the Lofton and the flag which I was not too upset about but won the Winfield bat. Overall, I am pretty happy with the results as the items I sold went for pretty good numbers and I ended up with the Winfield.

I ended up with the '98 Andy Pettitte GU bat and sold about 8-9 of my bats for good money.
Nice thing was that I didn't spend the money that was coming in for once....

Yea, nice final price amounts for me too as this was the first time I've consigned with them. I had the Phil Coke WS jersey that went for WAY more than I could've gotten on Ebay or private sale. Had a couple smaller baseball items that went close to what I paid, so lost a little, but gained in other areas.
Overall, I agree that if you want top $$$ for your items, consigning with GF has been the best so far. I have an item in the upcoming Lelands so we'll see how well that pans out too. I consigned with Lelands last year in their Fall auction and the process was smooth, but just didn't get the bid money I wanted on the jersey I consigned.

Congrats to all sellers and bidders!

I was definitely looking at it, but after purchasing the Griffey Fielding Glove and the Jersey I have from his company I couldn't go as high as they were asking. Plus still holding out for a Bruce jersey someday. Figure that Larkin's items will start going higher when he is inducted finally.

I won the Jimmy Rollins bat, and wish I had more money, as that Thome jersey was fantastic

I won the Timo Perez Mets jersey at a good price, which is perfect since I collect early 2000's Mets jerseys. Lost out on the Luis Castillo '03 Marlins and '98 Matt Williams though thanks to last minute bids. Oh well. I'm sure they'll be on eBay sooner or later.

I was in on the Larkin bat up to $240. Just like Adam, I didn't want to go higher on a non knob numbered Larkin. I won that nice looking 77-79 Griffey gamer tho!

Sweet! Just won on my first major auction picked this nice BP used 1990 Griffey auto jersey. Not too bad of a price except for buyers premium...20%..ouch!

I missed out on the Robin Yount helmet. It went for 2 grand...more than I expected. Would have loved to have it though since I have the matching Molitor and Gorman Thomas lids.

How long after an auction ends does it usually take to receive payment from Grey Flanne for consigned items? Thanks everyone.

Probably expect about 30-45 days, but you could always call them to confirm how their collecting is going on your items
