What did everyone get from last night's GFC auction? What did everyone think of the prices? I got the Brandon Marshall which I found to be very reasonable probably only because with the trade Broncos collectors no longer want his stuff as much as they did when he was on the team and the Fins fans are waiting for Fins jerseys. I tried to bid on the Colston but could not because I waited until after 9 to try which sucks because that went for a really cheap price, which shocked me since they just won the Super Bowl. Most of the other prices realized were very strong though I noticed, especially Berra and Montana.

Re: GFC Who got what?
I couldn't bid on any items last night but I was very surprised to see that Dennis Johnson's Sonics NBA championship ring went for more then his '86 Celtics championship ring. Also very surprised to see how much Kevin Johnson's Phoenix Suns jersey went for ($4,393). -
Re: GFC Who got what?
Here is my theory on DJ rings. 1. DJ was MVP of the Finals with the Sonics. 2. The Sonics won one title and never can win one again since they no longer exist. The Celts won many titles. So there are more Celts rings that have or can hit the market then Sonics rings.Comment

Re: GFC Who got what?
I was high bidder on the 1944 Muddy Ruel White Sox uniform and was surprised that it did not go for higher. I also picked up the shared Nyman/Ortiz flannel gamer, which I found to be cheap vis-a-vis my maximum bid. Lost out though on the Powell Yankees hat from the late 1930's, really wanted that since it shared the same dugout with Gehrig and Dimaggio.Comment

Re: GFC Who got what?
I picked up the David Ortiz, Alex Gonzalez and Jason Bay Red Sox home jerseys as well as the K-Rod Black jersey and the Josh Beckett dugout jacket (which conveniently is my size if times become tough). I also picked up a few other misc. lots.

Re: GFC Who got what?
Good points but considering that '86 Celtics team is arguably the greatest team of all-time and the Celtics have a much bigger fan base then the former Sonics I still find it a little surprising.
Hopefully the person who won the Sonics ring also won the '79 NBA finals MVP trophy so they can remain together.Comment

Re: GFC Who got what?
The McGwire 92 GU Helmet w/Oakland A's COA came home with me.
When was the last time you saw GU McGwire Helmet with GREAT documentation for sale?
Thats what I thought.

Re: GFC Who got what?
My thoughts
I was real tempted on bidding on the David Ortiz jersey, glad i didnt drive up the price on you...congrats that was a really good deal.
I bid on some hoops items, but didnt win, thought the Kobe shoes went for a good deal.
The KJ jersey went for a ton. The Shaq all star jersey was pretty cheap when i went to bed, but ended up at 10K.
Thought the Lebron Upperdeck shoes went for a good deal, more than i would pay, but they are UD.
Thought the Shaq LA jersey went real cheap and the rookie gamer went for 10K.sigpicComment

Re: GFC Who got what?
Ben, you picked up that Larkin bat?!?!? Many I put in those final bids to get to where it was the day before and could not believe somebody else wanted a Larkin that bad also. After a month of waiting for that bat, I let go last night.
Did end up with a consolation price of the Barry Larkin road jersey.Looking for: Joey Votto game used items.

Re: GFC Who got what?
I ended up with the Eric Show jersey. Probably paid too much, but wanted it really really bad.Comment

Re: GFC Who got what?
I went to bed at around midnight (I was exhausted) winning a bunch of items.
Woke up to find out I lost out on all of them except for the LeBron game used high school shoe.
This is the first Grey Flannel auction in a long time that I didn't really find a least one MUST HAVE item (In a reasonable price range), still many great pieces.
I do however hate the morning after though when you see something you wish you had went after.
Mainly for me the Bernard King jersey & a few others.
I can't believe how much the Chris Webber went for & how much the Jeff Lebo/UNC jersey went for.Comment
