Mike cracks me up 😂 Ben purchasing an old bible to try to return to the family is a super classy move… he seems like he’d be a fun dude to hang out with. As always, fantastic episode! Can’t wait for the next!
Mike needs to have better people skills like Ty. Some of his comments come across kinda rude. I wouldnt be selling him anything with some of the comments he made. Some people do care about the letter, and even if people didnt care there is a nicer way to say it.
100%, and you're not the only one noticing that. I've seen several comments already saying the same thing. Haven't finished the video, but it doesn't surprise me. Ben seems like a good guy with better personal skills.
I would love to have the letter with the autograph. This collection is so cool. Not only all the time the owner put into it but his passion for baseball.
The guy with glasses seems like a jerk. He doesn't know how to talk to people. I only watched about 25% of the video. I won't be watching any more videos with this guy in them.
@@richardrobin5837 The “guy with glasses” did me the most solid favor I’ve ever received in decades the hobby. However you perceive him in this footage, Mike is a cherished member of the hobby. Negotiating large deals is not a popularity contest.
Mike is teaching us about how to value these items and how to negotiate. He’s being sensible with his money and pulling items that fit his collection, not cherry picking. I’m all for this approach - he had facts to support his position unlike the sellers.
I think that lady is in La La Land. In all honesty, I have amassed 15-20K in-person autographs, as for years I lived near a minor league ballpark. It has taken me nearly forty years to accumulate them all. If I am lucky, I will end up averaging about a buck a piece when I choose to liquidate them.
I love this show!!! Let's go! From one Texas (DFW) boy to these two, howdy fellas! ALSO, love antique stores! Probably too much, despite needing to tap out quicker than usual due to getting old...and ugly. 😂
Seller is 100% pricing on highest eBay asking prices, not sold comps. Those letters are cool, but they are not authentication. If the seller wants to move these, she can spend thousands of dollars authenticating them and still wouldn’t even be in the ballpark of $30k. Comments on this video are weird. No one in their right mind would step in there and pay those asking prices. That’s just reality. TTM is a labor of love, not value. Some may not have liked the way Mike presented the information, but he was absolutely accurate and made fair offers. Please don’t let negative comments slow the progress. I truly believe this channel is the best in the hobby. On to the next.
100% agree with this post, I was going to post something very similar. I would bet nearly 99% of the people complaining would’ve offered much less, or wouldn’t have made an offer on unauthenticated product. I enjoy the the authentic way Mike talks during negotiations, it’s needed. Chasing cardboard, please do not change a thing really enjoy the content.
This one is tough because it’s a collection that’s valued very specifically to the original owner. Honestly if it were me I would curate this collection, give it the original owner’s name, and let it continue to tell its own story.
the balls and cards are maybe 5-10 each and some of the big names without authentication maybe 20 each considering JSA will be 10-20 per COA. Its a ton of work too as signed items are harder to list online. It might make great show material for in person. Maybe $1000 for the whole collection of autos. The other cards in binders anything good?
9:23 LOL ..... I guess this is YOUR right way. It's quite obvious it had a price on it, and you seemed quite rude and wanting to get YOUR price. Anything to add on here Mike, continuing from your other video and conversation ? You're still sticking to not being a hypocrite to what you do and your approach ???
I enjoyed this one. Mike and Ben……can’t help but enjoy. It seems to me that both are buying for themselves, not to resell. The excuse Ty gives for not being there is just a “snow job”! 🤭 Can’t wait for the next episode. (We miss you, Ty.)
I'm loving the comments about you on here, Mike ! Speaks volumes. Glad to know I'm not so off about you. Seems odd, but keep on producing these videos of yourself.
It is laughable how many people are knocking my guy MIKE. He is doing exactly what everyone does at a card show. It's the way the hobby world does business. If anyone here pays full price... and REAL cash at that... hit me up! I have a lot of cards for SELL!
Exactly, people running a business can’t pay market. Otherwise, it would be a break even/loss situation. Unless someone is loaded and doesn’t need money and wants to give people content on RUclips then they can pay asking price.
I don't get the negativity toward Mike Moynihan. He is one of the best collectors in the industry as well as one of the best content presentors. He was dealing with the "middle man" and his approach had to be business like. The antique dealers didn’t seem to be put off by him.
When she said “I wanted to see where you’d be at”, was she expecting yall to bring a camera crew to film an appraisal of the collection so that she can go shop around with your number?
These are the guys I 100% avoid at shows and on marketplaces. TY you need to be the only guy doing this. I don’t know him personally but Mike seems like an undesirable person to deal with. Typical low baller
While I understand everybody’s opinions on how this was handled, we have to remember that selling cards is both a business and a hobby. Some do it to get rich fast, and some do it to get rich in the long run. I would love to show mine and Wyatt’s collection to Ty one of these years, I just hope he is still doing this when that time comes around.
@@CHASINGCARDBOARDman… one bad apple spoils the bunch. I know you respect the guy’s knowledge and “business acumen”, but he makes you guys look like thieves (and I know you’re not…)
I have not seen enough of the collection to come up with the price. I would want to be at 1000 she probably wants 30,000. I started sending out TTM in the 80's sold all of them in 2010. I started back up a few years ago. I have over 26,000 different signed card from 1952-1992...
Glad to hear someone tell them like it is..good on you Mike. Too many out there think that they could "cash into" on the unknowing consumer. Some of the commenters on hear are getting butt hurt by Mikes approach...but hes telling facts...some people are just soft..."lighten up Francis"
Viewers, slow down: The Pee Wee ball matter what ball it is signed on. The age of the ball, league and who was commish at the time. Those prices Mike is throwing out is a real fast and loose way of NOT to comp it. And 110.00 net on a 150.00 sale? What ebay is Mike using that they charge 40.00 in fees for a 150.00 sale? Kershaw 40.00 😂 This is too much
very interesting opportunity. definitely difficult to purchase this kinda stuff, because the secondary market values don't necessarily equal the time/effort values put in by both the original collector and the estate people. had to be frustrating for everyone there: you guys trying to make sensible purchases, and the sellers trying to regroup after realizing the actuality of what the collection is/isn't
How much is the value on an unauthenticated through the mail autograph of Kershaw on a base Allen & Ginter card? Go look it up. You might be surprised.
@BaseballCollector Its the acting like you didnt know the Kershaw was the most valuable in the video. Seems like the comments section is not too happy with you on this episode. Also curious if you grabbed the letter with the cards?
I don't know that I would recommend sending Mike out again to represent this brand. He actually did brand damage in this video, not only to the to the seller but to the people who watched this video (see comments). And, this isn't the first time that this has happened in an episode of CC. I LOVE this channel, program and Ty. But, this is not the way imo. Yeesh.
Can't fault the buyer or the seller. They either agree on price or they don't It took lots of work to get the collection together and to get it organized in the room after it was moved. Also, it took time and money to make the trip. Sometimes things just don't work out.
It’s not authenticated so there is still a chance it is not real. If they don’t pay to authenticate it, they won’t be able to sell it for much if any more than $40. It takes time, money, and risk to authenticate the card. $40 was not an unfair price.
@@madduxmays6860 Its the way he goes about it. He plays dumb and acts like he didnt know what the best card was in the stack and mixed it with other cards to play it off so he could pay the 60 on the lot.
@@madduxmays6860 you can say that about this man’s whole collection. Authentication is new to the hobby in relation to how long collecting memorabilia has been. This man spent literally his whole life collecting these items and signatures and if he got them all authenticated he would be paying massive amounts of money. This man’s passion and work is what the hobby is all about. It’s how it all started. Mike knows better. He talks about it on his channel all the time. He wouldn’t have bought anything from them if he questioned its authenticity. And the fact that he is using the “it’s not authenticated” is hogwash. He knows better.
Kind of hard to watch the video at some point. Two things that from skipping certain parts. 1. Cherry picking on items and not showing what the other bidders had. Thought we would see some nice things. 2. These estate people are CRAZY.. People that run those things price items way over the price. When you try to tell them it's over price they get upset. Plus some people don't know what they have they go based on eBay prices and not the sold section of what the price is. Recent went to a estate found a Nolan Ryan base card with some rip showing they wanted 25 for it. When looking up the card they went off another card that look like it. Does not make sense at all. Estate sales are a joke . By the way Ben I have to say seems like a very quiet guy but nice. The whole bible thing really was nice and collects the history stuff. Because of his show when I seen him showing off his book collection I started collecting old books like him. Besides that keep up the great work.
Yeah estate sale liquidators are very much like card show sellers. Hit or miss. Robbie was very open to learning more about what they had. Some prices were based off of ebay listing prices not sold prices
I appreciate how gentle you all handle these families. Communicating honest values for collections without devaluing the collector is important and Mike put on another masterclass of how it should be done. Thank you for highlighting the love and effort that guy put into building his collection.
@@SportsCardCommentsI watched the video again and must be missing something. Do you think they run a charity? They have to resell all that stuff. Did you hear that woman pushing back on the comparable prices? I thought it was handled with kid gloves. Nothing there was rare or even close, they are commodities. I’m sorry you’re upset about the market but appraisals aren’t feelings based.
@semlohj 1. Did you see Mike scroll through a list of comps and never once click on any of them for the baseballs? 2. Did you not hear him ramble off a range of comp prices? 3. Are you educated on the value of baseballs? It matters what tyoe of ball it is, the league, is it a post career signature? Autos change, is it a post HOF induction signature? Who was the commish on the ball, the color and type of pen or marker. All of this in addition to Mikes attitude toward the seller is not something I would want to be a part of. And I am aware of the business side of things, so all of what I mentioned plus all the other comments where well over 80% of them see and posted similar comments. I am not upset about anything, I do not control the market, the point you are missing here and everyone else seems to spot a mile away is that guy did nothing close to an "appraisal" Mike grabbed some Ranger autos and the best card that we saw he put a 40.00 price on (Kershaw auto) and didnt even want the story/letter that came with it. Lets meet at the National and I will buy your whole collection and ramble off comps on my phone and see how it goes. Nothing rare or even close to rare has zero to do with the issues in this video.
I would not sell to the guy in the rangers sweatshirt, kind of a jerk! Not a likeable person......I would imagine you will lose subs with this guy representing you!
The nastiness comes out when discussing comps. It comes with the territory I understand, but it does turn the stomach. Glad they didn’t sell to them, or they would’ve been ripped off.
Seriously Mike’s like I’ll give you 100 bucks, he just looked it up and they’re selling for 179-180, and that’s before taxes. This guy is like I’ll give you 100. I would’ve said you can kick rocks. The lady said it very nicely somebody else is offering me a little bit more, so he says then sell it to them, all nasty. Lol 😂
Ive never been into collectint in person autos. Theres way too many fakes. And i def wouldnt buy one with a COA from anybody but the top certification place.....if i was to collect them. Rather just get an on card auto from a pack.
People see eBay prices but don’t get this stuff doesn’t sell everyday. You can list a HOF auto at a good price and it’ll sit in eBay for months. People hate Mike’s lack of empathy and directness but he’s just being honest I would have walked from this collection . There’s so much cool stuff there that has no value. TTM letters are awesome but ittle to no value . Mike and Ben are their to make money end if the day
The Uecker is worth more than the Reese. In fact it is worth the $400. Inscriptions matter too so if a straight signed Reese is around 150, add a HOF script and it's probably closer to 200.Should have had me there, this is what I collect.
Thanks for adding that clarification. So much more that Mike knows nothing about when it comes to these baseballs. He is not talking about age of signature, playing day vs post playing day, signed pre or post HOF, tyoe of ball, league, commish, type of pen, color etc. Quote "I DONT ..I DONT KEEP UP WITH ALL THIS"....Sounds like the guy I wanna deal with 😁
Mike cracks me up 😂

Mike wants to pay wholesale, but he's cherrypicking a retail quantity of HOFs, not the whole collection or even a bulk amount? Kind of lame.

Lets meet at the National and I will buy your whole collection and ramble off comps on my phone and see how it goes. Nothing rare or even close to rare has zero to do with the issues in this video.
@@semlohj This is so true. The comments are hilarious.
I like Mike, but you have to stop selling at one point. The guy says, 'I get it'.
Mike's back!!
I hit like just because Tyler stole my job ❤
10:36 LOL
Not the same without Ty
Lots of work, little value. And boy did that lady sound just like youd expect, 200 reese offer lie and all mixed with a 2 pack a day habit lol
I would pay around $2,700.00 for everything.
Bring back Ty

I would not sell to the guy in the rangers sweatshirt, kind of a jerk! Not a likeable person......I would imagine you will lose subs with this guy representing you!
Yup his attitude is super annoying has a slimy vibe to him
We have to wait for the next episode. Why doesn’t that surprise me 😂😏
People like to do business with people they like. These two guys I would not do any business with. Not personable at all.
@Crypto_Chrome_Dragon "hope you learned something" kinda put me off
The nastiness comes out when discussing comps. It comes with the territory I understand, but it does turn the stomach. Glad they didn’t sell to them, or they would’ve been ripped off.
Lol right. Mike was such a man child about pricing the baseballs
Seriously Mike’s like I’ll give you 100 bucks, he just looked it up and they’re selling for 179-180, and that’s before taxes. This guy is like I’ll give you 100. I would’ve said you can kick rocks. The lady said it very nicely somebody else is offering me a little bit more, so he says then sell it to them, all nasty. Lol 😂
Mike sucks 💯💯💯💯💯💯💯
No the letter doesn't mean anything unless it's babe ruth
Ive never been into collectint in person autos. Theres way too many fakes. And i def wouldnt buy one with a COA from anybody but the top certification place.....if i was to collect them. Rather just get an on card auto from a pack.
I would pay $5000
Ahh yeah
The letter is nice, but it dont mean anything to me. Lol, they are never going to sell all that stuff.....unless some dumbass overpays.
😱
$5k
People see eBay prices but don’t get this stuff doesn’t sell everyday. You can list a HOF auto at a good price and it’ll sit in eBay for months.
People hate Mike’s lack of empathy and directness but he’s just being honest
I would have walked from this collection . There’s so much cool stuff there that has no value. TTM letters are awesome but ittle to no value . Mike and Ben are their to make money end if the day
The Uecker is worth more than the Reese. In fact it is worth the $400. Inscriptions matter too so if a straight signed Reese is around 150, add a HOF script and it's probably closer to 200.Should have had me there, this is what I collect.
Thanks for adding that clarification. So much more that Mike knows nothing about when it comes to these baseballs. He is not talking about age of signature, playing day vs post playing day, signed pre or post HOF, tyoe of ball, league, commish, type of pen, color etc. Quote "I DONT ..I DONT KEEP UP WITH ALL THIS"....Sounds like the guy I wanna deal with 😁
Not to pile on Mike here but never trust a Mountain Dew drinker
Slimy used car salesman vibe from him and I hate it
There back
$3000
Mike is probably correct but his bedside manner is horrible.
Why you using ziggyno thumbnail??
@11:17 I thought that was Ziggy. But it's not lol.
who?
This is a horrible episode, it really shows they know nothing about the hobby just looking at the instant $$
Oh yeah? And how is that?
