During the early 1900's no player dominated the sport of baseball more than Ty Cobb. Making his career debut in 1905 for the Detroit Tigers, Cobb would go on to earn 12 American League batting titles, the Triple Crown, and the AL MVP Award in 1911. To this day he still owns the MLB record for the highest career batting average of .367. In 1936 when the National Baseball Hall of Fame was founded, Cobb was voted in with over 98% of the votes. Offered in this lot one of the finest autographed Ty Cobb items to ever hit the market. PSA graded the signature on the bat a 10 making it one of the rarest signed Ty Cobb bats ever to hit the market. Simply due to age most Cobb signatures regardless of the item they are signed on have faded over time. The signature on this bat remains pristine. The signature still maintains its perfect pen flow from the beginning of the inscription, through his signature, all the way to the end of the date that he inscribed. Single signed bats autographed by Cobb that do not feature an inscription and/or date consistently bring in six figures. This bat not only features the still crisp signature, but also the inscription "WITH BEST WISHES, SINCERELY TY COBB 3/14/49". This PSA 10 graded bat is truly worthy of Cooperstown, and is sure to be the centerpiece to any collector's collection.

The Auto Bid Extend feature ensures that bidders will always have a chance to challenge bids placed in the final seconds of an auction. When indicated on a listing page, if a bid is placed during the last 5 minutes of an auction, the auction will automatically extend for an additional 5 minutes from the time of the latest bid. The auction will close once all bidding activity has stopped for a period of 5 minutes.
In a Reserve Price Auction, the seller has set a Reserve Price, which is a price below which the listing will not sell. The Reserve Price is higher than the Opening Value. A reserve price allows the seller to start the auction with an opening value below the reserve price to initiate bidder interest and determine the fair market value of an item. If the seller as set a Reserve Price you will see either a "Reserve Price NOT Met" or "Reserve Price Met" message on the listing page depending on whether the current bid is below, or at or above, the reserve.
Reserve Price NOT Met- The current amount of the highest bid is below the reserve price and the item will not sell at auction close.
Reserve Price Met - The current amount of the highest bid is equal to, or greater than, the reserve price and the item will be sold.
If the highest bid at the auction close does not meet the seller's Reserve Price, the seller is not required to sell the item unless the seller chooses to do so. In this case, the seller will have a period of 48 hours after the auction close in which to contact the highest bidder whose offer was below the reserve price. Bidders who are contacted under these circumstances, however, are under no obligation to purchase the item.
In a Reserve Price auction, the seller starts the auction at a value below the lowest price at which s/he is willing to sell (the Reserve Price) to capture the bidder interest. This way, the bidders are not forced to bid at fair market value from the start of the auction. Also, many sellers prefer Reserve Price auctions when they are not sure of the market value of an item, and want to find an audience by enticing multiple bidders' interest.
In an Open Auction, buyers bid until the auction ends. The item is then sold to the highest bidder at the end of the auction period. There is no reserve price in an Open auction. The seller must sell the item to the highest bidder. Bidding can start as low as the Opening Value (minimum price or starting amount) of the auction.
Once the auction closes, email notification providing contact information is sent to the buyer and seller automatically so that arrangements for payment and shipment of the item can be determined.
A Dutch Auction occurs automatically on Fanatics Auctions when a seller has multiple, identical items offered for sale. The seller specifies the minimum price (the Opening Value) and the number of items for sale. Bidders can then bid at or above the minimum price for the quantity of items they wish to purchase. At the close of the auction, all winning bidders purchase the items at the same price, which is the lowest successful Bid.
In some auctions, a number of identical items are offered for sale at the same time. When the listing closes, the highest Bidders win the available inventory. Bids are sorted in order with priority given to price, the quantity bid for, and then finally to time a bid was placed. The time of a bid is determined by fanaticsauctions.com based on its records. If bids are tied for price, the Buyer who has bid in the greater quantity wins. If there are two bids at the same price for the same quantity, the early bid wins.
Fixed Price Sale listings or "Buy it Now" auctions have a fixed price set by the seller. Buyers simply choose to buy the item at that price. Fixed Price listings will remain active until all items have been sold or the close date and time set by the seller has been reached.
...the current bid has exceeded the buy now price for this item, so buy now is no longer available.
