What's Your Biggest Auction House Steal?
What's a card you've gotten for a good price from the AH that is performing well for you? I feel some of the cards I've sold got bought for a steal (93 Ken Griffey Jr for 25K and 91 Albert Belle for 9K) but have also gotten some great deals (94 Fernando Valenzuela for 5556)

if we're including v19, then hands down my best AH steal was Johnny Vander Meer for 4001 (his last 5 average at the time was around 22K)
just started my teams in v20 last night, so haven't seen how any of my AH pickups are producing there as of yet... (and no standout purchases in that mix anyway, but I guess ya never know) |

I bought your Albert Belle
I thought 9K for him was a steal too!! Thanks man!!
My favorite value purchase so far this year though was a little more pricey. I paid 71K for Peak Frank Robinson, and 71K ain't cheap, but I mean look at this card and tell me it's not worth 150K. Dude will be my DH for the rest of this cycle. Couldn't believe I got him for so cheap (all things relative). So jealous of your Valenzuela deal, that is some real deal value! |

My best so far was the 82 (or 81) Peak Harold Baines I picked up for 1500pp. Not many deals to be had in OOTP 20 yet.

That's an amazing deal! That Frank Robinson card looks amazing! Glad to hear you got the Belle! Was hoping for more of a bidding war, but happy it went to someone here! I was surprised to win the Valenzuela for so cheap, seems like a pretty good card and he's been performing well so I cant complain |

On OOTP 19 I bought All star Keuchel for 1400, when he was firmly selling for around 35k:
Discord suggested that I probably sniped someone trying to trade it between their two licenses, as it had a history in the perfect leagues. |

I have tried to move players between teams by putting them up at above last 5. it has never worked. yesterday on my collections team i tried to buy some cards I didn't have that some bozi listed at ridic prices. i was not allowed to buy because that bozo was me. i think its more likely that someone posted the keuchel thinking it was the live card. |

Just Scored 89 Wade Boggs for 5k. Last 5 avg is 20k!! Was a huge upgrade because my 3b has been underwhelming to say the least

Tried to "steal" a 100 Cobb today but to no avail. The no BIN price was very nice up until the last 10 seconds where it landed at 333K It's going for a 800K BIN right now. Nice flip if it's the same one... Hope these new 800 to 1 million sell prices are not the new norm but buyers keep popping up so who knows... Folks have been saving their allowances

not thats my Cobb. I put it up because i think that is the market value. i think that was a new player that put that cobb up. putting a card like that up with a min start price for a 12 hour auction was not that well thought out. |

I have three pretty good deals...
100 Mookie Betts for 25k - sold him for 47k. Freddie Lynn for 16k - he currently goes for 21k and then Dick Bartell for 5k...I believe the only one that has been in the AH...he's worth alot more than that! |

Oh 100% totally on both points. Cobb is pretty much a top 5 on anyone's scorecard so with the rates the way they are I reckon you'll fetch that asking price or damn near close to it. I had the day off and thought what a tragic time of day to end an auction with so many potential buyers at work.

In PT 19 someone must've accidentally posted a 96 Ron Santo at 4,000 PP - I snapped it up within 2 seconds of noticing it for sale, couldn't believe my eyes.
This was with a team that was only Cubs and Whiter Sox players so I was just luckily looking at the AH with with Chicago filter on. Assume it was a first timer, or someone who meant to put 40,000 as the buy now price.

I picked up a 99 Verlander for 7k last week....he routinely sells for 11k+ and was a beast for me season 1.
Other than that, nothing spectacular so far. But saving 4k+ this early in the game is something I am happy about. |

I too got that Verlander for around 7,000. Then I pulled the same stinking card in the next pack I opened. Sold my duplicate for 8,888.

I feel like I’m stealing every time I sell a Chris Davis for 5 points.
