Dont know about the other 20 or so pins that were there. I dont bother showing up on auction day to buy, since Chris that runs the place will bid against you and prevent any good deals.

Yeah... I've heard the same thing about the owner bidding up the pins, which is why I didn't make the drive.

I see amazing auction prices on here from other places in the country that I wish we had here in California.

Thanks for the info...

Quoted from ButtonMash:

Why does he do it then?

I have seen him do it, he points in the crowd and ups the price all the time, still wondering what prices the pins went for I am surprised no one has chimed in with a list on this
