I had a bid of 20,001.00 and I figured I had it locked down.. After 21k, I was out. That price is absolutely ridiculous. Took the ST126 9.6 instead.

 

After seeing prices of books I was interested in last month go through the roof, I'm becoming apathetic to even bidding on stuff there. Apparently I'm on the wrong side of the tracks.

I'm not shocked at all. Crazy tough book.

And its even off-center.

 

Neither the first nor the second 9.8 sold for as much. Not even close.

 

I know. 2013 is a long time ago. There are a lot of people wanting this book right now.

 

(But in all honesty I was expecting around 35K )

Wow so 2003 when I started to buy stuff was like a generation ago. :)

Quite honestly, Pedigree has easily had the best auction as of late. Between the last 3 major auction sites I've watched lately, Doug had the best offerings this time around. Personally, he's always done right by me. Some of these prices are crazy though. :roflmao:

It's definitely becoming something for the much more affluent out there, more and more.
