Online and watching! I haven't bid on anything yet, but the bidding company was very helpful getting set up! They are really moving along quickly, and if you want something, you'll have to bid quickly! 30 inch Red Crown just brought $4000! That was a 42" Red Crown - Lot #7231.1

Managed to get a nice Mohawk clock. Missed out on my other two but I stuck to my guns and didn't overbid on them. Disappointed on the added items were unavailable to online yet they were in the catalog.
Overall great job by Rory and the team. It ran perfect and without a hitch.
Always looking for back-lit advertising clocks, prefer Telechron, American Time & Electric Time. Also Pam in good condition.

It is good to see the prices are strong I was glued to the computer most of the day watching.
I am always looking for anything Texaco or Oklahoma oil and gas company's, also I am a newbie at seeking globes.

I sat in the third row all day today (Sat) and it was just absolutely insane what was going on. Pure madness is about the only thing I can think to describe it. Seemed like every globe sold set a new world record for price. Hope most the deep pockets got their fill today and won't be back for more on Sunday. Yeah I know wishful thinking.

The Bay on white ripple had major damage to the base. Many globes sold for triple or quadruple what they were worth. Some sold for many, many times their worth. The globe buyers thus far are clueless about what they were buying. The Apco Regular sold for $1100, Richfield Ethyl for $3400, Atlantic for $1400, 12 1/2" American found a new home for $1600, Skelly Premium $1700. The $4K Red Crown sign didn't surprise me nearly as much as the $1000 Valvoline flanged tin sign or the $3000 Shell Charge Cards sign, or the Diamond 760 sign that went for $6500. Those prices don't include the 15% buyers premium or the nearly 9% sales tax!
Wanted: Gas pump globes:Sinclair & affiliates, IL companies. Ripple bodies. Anything Sinclair, Stoll, Pierce, 4 Bros. http://www.lastgas15.com/

You are right the shell sign and diamond i was shocked, but you have people with money get caught up, & want it it doesn't matter. I can see paying higher price if it is for your collection, u may not find the piece for a long time, i would do it. But for re sell I think it may be tough.

Smart enough, or lucky enough, to gain/accumulate wealth. Dumb enough to waste it. You could buy this all day long on ebay for $225-$250.

Maybe the "Smart enough, or Lucky enough" don't have the time to search eBay, Craigslist, Facebook, AuctionZip, etc. all day long looking. They are out making an honest living and can spend however they please. Have a great day, as I'm off to day 2 of Barrett-Jackson...
