These are some amazing EGAs. However, why would a seller flood the market with so many of these at one time?
Why wouldn't he sell a few at a time to try to get the high-end collecters?

Oh well, it's a good opportunity to buy, unless you are bidding against millionaires not everyone will be able to 'go all in' on every good item and drive up the price. A 'kitchen table collecter' might have a decent shot at getting some real winners.

Either way the collecting community has 'won' due to the OP saving these great pics for refrence.

I agree with everything you said. Especially the part about D saving these pics for reference! :thumbsup:

After having spoken w/ a number of other EGA collectors re these multi-auctions - the seller is holding strong with the reserve items (he knows what the market is). That said, there are some fair prices among the singles (providing you know what your looking at!).

I picked up the right side 1936 Pattern N.S. Meyer Officer Dress Collar "210" as a PERFECT match to my left side one.
