Neat Little Estate Sale Unopened Trove from this past weekend (FL Panhandle)

Saw this posted on Facebook a week before the auction started, and I didn't see it leak very hard. First guy in the door spent $15K.

Table of goodness

1997-98 Fleer

1998-99 Skybox Metal - I ended up with 2 of these. Know a store owner got a few as well.

1996-97 Boxes

Wish I could have gotten some of those Marvel Silver Age before they disappeared. I was unable to attend in person, but an LCS owner bought the 2 boxes for me and I picked them up later.

How were the prices?

They didn't publish them early and I didn't get to see them before the sale. I know they sold most of the good stuff before the shop I owner I know got in, but the Metal was originally priced at $3800; if you bought at least 2, the Estate Sale runner priced them at $2,500 each.

The silver age is a great box, wish you could have landed some too.

I’m surprised the retail metal sells for so much, no pmg’s in there.

Wow, very nice collection of boxes. Those AAFES price tags suggest the original owner was military/government.

Nice stuff! Retail, but still very nice.

Only $15K by the first guy?

I'd have walked out with all of that basketball wax, someone else could have had whatever is good in the other stuff...
