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.

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.

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

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.
