Auction Roundup for December 2022

Significant auction sale from December 2022.

Lot 181C: 1966 MATTEL MAJOR MATT MASON & SPACE SLED MOC

Auction: Milestone Auctions - Willoughby, OH, US
Est.: $800 USD - $1,200 USD
Item number: Lot 181C
Ended: December 10, 2022
Winning bid: $525 ($632.40 adjusted for buyer's premium)

Description:
1966 Mattel Major Matt Mason and Space Sled. early version used on a Barbie Give-Away Display. All still sealed on original card. Card has creasing and loss on back where it was taken off the display. Also has piece of tape on back of card. 

My Take: 
AThe description rightly lists this as a flight card that's been removed from the Nabisco Funny Face Drink Mix Contest display. Not too many of these around, the nicest thing is that it includes a minty unused white rubber MMM figure.

Note:
The winning bid price doesn't reflect the common buyer's premium which most live auctions force the winning bidder to pay - it's often as much as 25% of the total winning bid. In this case it's 20% which I've shown as the adjusted price less US sales tax.
