2012 Topps Tier One Bat Knob Sale Tracker Thread

[clarkfan]

Also of note, Strawberry went for $1,899 which is the 2nd highest confirmed sale price behind Clemente @ $3,049.00.

Strawberry "only" sold for $844. The BIN asking price was $1899, but ebay has changed it back and forth a few times on how completed BIN/Best Offers listings show up in completed listings. Right now, it lists the full asking price, but if you click on the listing, you can see it's actual sale price. Still a good amount at $844 IMO

Perhaps I am missing something.
I clicked on the listing and it still says the selling price was $1,899.00

Clark is Correct the Straw only sold for $844.00 which is still damn high for Strawberry. Also I do not think Winfield has been pulled either.

Just as I spoke, my LCS weekly email came out this afternoon! Wow... just wow... someone pulled the Winfield knob and someone also pulled the Reggie Jackson 1/1 gold sig... that makes 2 knobs and 2 1/1s autos from the same shop! Trying to post pics but it isn't working?!

EDIT: You should add on the first post which are still out there or not accounted for, just an idea. There are only 99 of these, so we know the checklist.

The Yount, Sheffield, Thome (again) and Ortiz have all sold.

They are turning down 4500.00 and 5500.00 offers so 7,500 might be close to what they want.

Is the idea that you can't even get your hands on an entire Ruth game used bat, so this is the next best thing? I always LOL when guys put such a stupid BIN price on things like this... might as well make it $1mm or something; who am I though ::facepalm::

Im with ya on that. Normally high buy it now's always turn me off but I figured it was worth a shot at making a decent offer. I suppose 7500.00 is only a couple of grand more than i offered but I usually try to make offers based on what it would possibly sell via auction style. Ill e-mail the guy and see what he realistically is looking for. Like you said, Ruth bats command big money and this is really a once in a lifetime pieces.

Updated to reflect the Ruth and Rice that have been pulled and listed.
Nothing has ended recently.
Now, to try and work on the seller for the Rice.......

 

[smapdi]

I'm close to listing my house for sale. I was planning on using the proceeds for a downpayment on my new one. But scooping up the Mantle, DiMaggio, and Ruth knobs is a close second, and making a move on first.

Updated to reflect Hamilton, Posey, Ozzie and Hanley sales.

Here are the 40 remaining cards that I don't have any confirmed sales for.
