schmoozer Posted June 25, 2018 Report Share Posted June 25, 2018 if we can get 100 people to contribute $2,250 each we could do it. Then we have Zaboo set them up in equal lots ($) for random drawings....:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marboman Posted June 26, 2018 Report Share Posted June 26, 2018 Is that a "big brown" front and center? Would love to have a peek at that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
schmoozer Posted July 2, 2018 Report Share Posted July 2, 2018 How many collectors have $225K laying around? While it might be worth it overall, it seems like a pie-in-the-sky offering. Maybe better to move the collection to Morphy and let them piece it out for the best return? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suppose the person is just trying to get the word out,build some interest. Then eventually end up at a prestigious auction. Or perhaps wants a quick deal. Start high and end up around 20-25% of asking. My 2 cents anyways on that . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spherophile Posted October 2, 2019 Report Share Posted October 2, 2019 Looks like this lot eventually sold for $127,000. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
