Grey Flannel Spring Auction Is Up!

[legaleagle92481]

I think some people prefer Ebay because there is no BP and items go for less. For the seller Ebay sucks but for the collector its gold. Obviously one has to do their homework even more because there is much more bad stuff then you would find in a major auction houses auctions but for good stuff its a great place to add to one's collection. Alot of my best stuff is from Ebay and if that stuff was from an auction house I would have had to pay much, much more for it. In fact alot of stuff that originated at major auction houses or NFL Auctions I obtained on Ebay for a fraction of the original price. Given the choice as a high end collector who knows what he is buying I prefer Ebay.

This is pretty much how I feel. As with everything on eBay, as long as know what you're doing it's gold.

Anyone with opinions on the Palmeiro Rangers jersey? Good, no good, middle of the road?

Anyone? Would love to hear some input before I make a serious run at it.

It is a great item. The provenance is directly from Palmeiro himself with his letter. The jersey and pants exhibit great use. I personally have viewed this uniform.

I've looked through the Grey Flannel FAQs, but couldn't find anything.

Are there hidden reserve prices on Grey Flannel items?

Thank you.

no. whatever item sells for is price buyer gets it at plus bp, shipping and tax, where applicable. if yiu bid minimum and noone else bids the items yours. the house does not bid on behalf of its consignors.

Thanks you for the info.

This is my first time bidding in a Grey Flannel auction.

One more piece of info.

If you want to bid on any of the Premier Lots, they will want to verify your ability to pay. They did me via a bank account. Not sure if they have other ways.

[halzeus]

When bidding on an item in the Grey Flannel auction, is it better to use the ceiling bid option, or manually bid?

Thanks for any info.

The Gerald White 1986 Big Ten Championship ring I bid on has been removed from the auction. No details or reason.
