Who sets the starting price, the seller or Goldin, or do you collaborate on it? Feels like this card started way too high and has only 1 bid in the first few days of auction while every other marquee card in this auction has several bids at minimum.

If you want someone to shill, I know a guy.

Never mind, he won’t pay.

Yep, most likely topped out.

Congrats OP on the sale. While it seems a bit lower than our estimates here, it is still a ton of money for a card.

It was never a million dollar card.

Mile High also ended last night and there were some high end vintage that fell well short of what was expected. Seems like there is a pullback at the top end of the market - either that or there are just too many high end auctions running - seems like they never stop.

Way too many auctions and way too much high-end stuff being sold. Sellers are racing to the bottom. I couldn’t imagine selling a top piece right now given the down market and endless amount of stuff being offered. Horrible combination of factors if you are a seller. But it’s awesome for buyers and collectors.

No, it was a bit lower than some of our estimates....a LOT lower than your oh so confident estimate.

That's about the right amount for said card.

The worst is some sellers may have consigned stuff months ago but have to wait in line for other copies to sell first, watching each new one sell for less and less each time until yours finally makes it into an auction. The cards like Jordan Fleer 10s, Mahomes NT RPAs, Curry NT RPAs, and LeBron Exquisites that seem to sell over and over again in every single auction. Something may have been a $500k card when you consigned it but by the time it crosses the block could be down to $250k.

It definitely is funny though to see Ken or somebody else at Goldin coming out with a new video hyping the next LeBron RPA going to auction saying stuff like “it’s the rarest high end LeBron” when in reality it’s been sold monthly for like a year now. I remember reading an article a few years back about an investor who had a blank cheque ready to buy LeBron RPAs and it took him like two years to finally get one because nobody was letting them go and you needed connections to even find one available. Now it sells so often you’re bored of seeing them or even annoyed that there’s constantly one being waved in your face by the auction house marketers. The card has completely lost its lustre for me.

Congrats! Better declare every cent of it because Joe Biden is super sizing the IRS to comb through everyone's bank accounts.

Weren't you declaring everything in the first place?

You are right:

I found it odd the card only got four bids, considering the curry national treasures RPA /99 (3 9.5 1 10) sold for more. But RC cards are king in NBA. Surprised there wasn't more interest in this card, considering the warriors just came off their 4th title in 8 years.

And even seeing the lebron triple go for over 2 million.
Jordan, Lebron, Kobe triple logoman sold for only 1.68 million. Seems like a lot for us normal folk. But one could argue that is one of the greatest modern cards ever made.

I think these sales speak to the weakness of the overall market. The whole high end is safe thing was always bs.

A year or two ago, we are talking 3 million+ for triple logoman card of MJ, Lebron, and Kobe

The consignor only has themselves to blame for that. When you are selling a card worth six figures, you get to dictate the conditions. Not happy with what Goldin is offering? Go to PWCC. Go to Heritage. Go to REA. Plenty of other options out there. I think the biggest mistake people are probably making is not asking what other cards their item is going to be up against. It was horrible collation to have this triple against three different Curry RPAs. Too much overlap of the buyer pool.

Nice sale, congrats.

Now, did the other cards take away from this one or did it bring the buyers who helped move this one, can go either way.
