I think CGC should make a statement on whether they think OJ was guilty. The community needs to know.
Here's my rationale. 

 

Based on the Bleeding Cool review, the book sounds like a rant. 

I was being facetious.
CGC doesn't owe anyone an opinion on anything except for the grade of your comic book.

I'm behind someone all the time. You win some, you lose some. 

Oh great.  So this thread was started and then recanted, but now more eyes will be on the auction.  This is not what a guy with a $68.37 budget wanted to see.

Fair!  I amended my original post, I'm in for this!

I asked to have second shot if you passed, but not only did you have game, you were responsible  You were one step ahead of me at the show, I never laid eyes on you, only humbled by the aftermath GOD BLESS ...

Coming from an OG, that's quite a compliment. 

I knew you were joshing. You know, I remember a Baltimore Con, 2011?, and I ended up at several tables shortly after you left. I saw the small piles you had placed on hold at each booth, and thought, "DAYUM, This cat got GAME." GOD BLESS ...

As usual first wins the prize! Will respond to reasonable offers via PM, I'll take it trumps that (especially with toddler and working). 
No HOS'ers
Payment: Paypal only, (Cash or EMT acceptable and preferred for Canada only), payment due within 3 days of purchase. I can’t stress this enough life is busy I can’t constantly think about comics otherwise my wife will kill me.
Shipping: USPS Priority Shipping is $18 per book. Add $2 for every book on top for max of 5. Anything above and beyond please let me figure shipping out. Pricing is for anywhere in Canada or USA 
Returns: I am not accepting returns as I am in Canada and most of my sales are in the US. But as always, I will work with you on and if anything troubling comes up as I look to keep relationships healthy and happy. 
 
 

I do think you see more volatility for bigger books, where the buying pool is much more shallow.
There was a Tec #27 4.5 that sold for $1.14MIL in 2022 and then resold for $675K 2 years later. It's more rare to see such a haircut on such an important, rare book but it does happen. I think if we all knew it was going to go that cheap many more people would have thrown in a bid. I don't think anyone expected it.
Regarding 2nd and 3rd days in large auctions, you may get a little fatigue from people who have spent a lot of dough in the 1st round, but that's not always the case. Auctions really are often luck of the draw. 
We also tend to forget that the proliferation of auction houses in the hobby is a relatively recent thing. The big 3 have 'only' been around for a couple of decades, since the standardization of grading through CGC. Before that, most were buying at fixed prices.
Heritage has been around what, 23 years now? But Comiclink and Comic Connect are much more recent - about 15 or 16 years. 
Their proliferation are certainly cash grabs, in an attempt to compete for people's money in a more aggressive way, and that money gets spread around thinner than when everything had a fixed price.
Having said that, it also increased a lot of interest in the hobby, expanded the market greatly and sped up the movement of books and money within the hobby. 
I remember comics being pretty stagnant for the most part except for eBay, which was really the best place to buy books until the other auction houses came around. 
My point being that a wider market shallows the buying pool and increases volatility. 

Pretty surprising results in today's Heritage Auction in the books I followed.
Even relatively common books seemed to go for decent numbers but the special stuff went bonkers.
