I’m all for the Jimmy V. fund, and giving to charity on occasion, but what the heck kind of career does someone have when they can pay more than $70,000 for a replica David Ortiz jersey.

Supposedly this shirt was buried under the concrete of the new Yankee stadium by a Red Sox fan in order to curse the Yanks, but when the New York organization received word that this went down, the jersey was dug up and donated to charity.

I know that this auction wasn’t for charity, but Nodder Exchange just set a record for the sale of a nice 1960s Redskins promo nodder. The very rare doll sold for $17,243 including the buyer's premium, crushing the previous record for a bobbing head doll of $14,000 and change that was set in the fall of 2005 (for the 1st Redskins doll known). Further proof that the hobby is strong and growing daily.


In the next few days I promise to really tap into the spring auctions that are coming up and see if there are some good deals still out there, any possible controversy that may exist and also get quotes from auction house owner and see what they expect results on some of their main items.
