Bid now in Blowout's 100 Case 2014 Bowman Player Auction

2nd Bidding deadline is 11:00pm EDT - 11:00 bids are ok, but 11:01 will not count.

If you are not available to bid, you may pm houdini your final bids by Sunday at 10:00pm EST.

http://www.blowoutcards.com/forums/b...r-auction.html

Watch out for the server slowing. Do not click refresh in the last 15 minutes.

100 Cases - 2014 Bowman Baseball Player Auction

What time is EDT for you locally? EDT - Eastern Daylight Time

TONIGHT IS THE SECOND DEADLINE

Tonight at 11:00pm EDT is the deadline for all Prospect Chrome & the Russell Wilson SSP.

11:00 bids are ok, but no post time stamped 11:01 or later will count!

PM bids:

Not going to be around at 11pm EDT?

Send a pm bid anytime before 10pm.

You MUST title the message: PM BIDS

1 bid per line please.

May only send 1 pm bid per deadline - so please include all spots.

We will place the bids as close to 10:55pm as possible, but if the server starts to slow I may place them a few minutes early.

We are NOT responsible if the server crashes and the PM bids do not show in time. Should be ok, but just in case.

Sniping:

Sniping is perfectly legal, but no bids on 11:01 or later will count - so be careful in case you lose your player.

The server has slowed on the last 2 big auctions and could very well crash before 11pm tonight - just depends on server load.

Three Deadlines:

Prospect & Rookie autos - Saturday April 26th @ 11pm EDT
Prospect Chrome & Russell Wilson SSP - Sunday April 27th @ 11pm EDT
Minis & Parallel/Insert Lots - Monday April 28th @11pm EDT

Payment deadline:

Tuesday April 29th @ noon EDT

There will be full instructions on how and where to pay posted and sent via pm.

Bill Me Later and Paypal echeck are ok.
Payment via 1989 Topps commons is NOT ok!

The art of bidding to win:

Let me tell you how I bid.

First, I decide if the spot is a steal, an investment, or a must have.

For a steal, I will assume there is another person who sees this steal too. With over 120 people bidding, somebody else has seen how low the spot is, right? So I will bid assuming another person is also trying to swoop in and get the steal. I will figure their bid into my planning and try to out smart them. My success rate is about 33% - but then it wouldn't be a steal at a higher cost anyway.

For an investment I just run the numbers. How many cards can I grade? How many will be color or variations? Then I bid at where I think there is still meat on the bone. Generally the player and insert spots are the best bargains. If I see another investor aiming for the same spot, I offer to partner on the spot rather than getting in a bidding war - just watch out for the second bidder on the grassy knoll - you two may not be the only bidders.

For a must have (like a pc player), I assume that there are two or three other people who will be aggressively bidding on the same player. I assume they will both bid wisely. I then bid assuming that they will both get 2 snipes in before the clock runs out. I overbid on these spots sometimes and sometimes I am right and just barely eke out the winning bid. My success is over 90% on these bids.

If you are just bidding $5 over the current bid, you will not win your spot the vast majority of the time.
