  1. Thanks Cujo..I thought I got a good deal also.. Summer is a bad time to sell, money being used for cons and vacations and new books are being stretched thin. No more books up on Ebay for me till at least September. its a fine time to sell, you just don't list auctions, especially starting at a price lower than what you are willing to sell the book for.
  2. a new take on well known characters combined with a small print run...could be Peter Panzerfaust all over again. Plus Sherlock Holmes and John Watson are already back in the public eye with the success of Sherlock and Elementary...
  3. Do you recall his name? his name is guerrierhabs http://www.ebay.com/sch/guerrierhabs/m.html?_nkw=&_armrs=1&_from=&_ipg=&_trksid=p3686 Look at his feedback left for others or read about him in the general forum. He buys slabs and finds something wrong with them, and then wants some form of compensation in return. Meanwhile, if you look at his listings, he points out that he doesn't take returns on CGC graded books. Oh the hypocrisy. This is written at the beginning of every listing he makes: FRAUDULENT EBAYERS WILL BE REPORTED TO EBAY AS WELL AS PAYPAL AND THE AUTHORITIES OF MY CITY AND THE BUYER'S CITY. EVEN FOR 20$ I WILL TAKE LEGAL ACTION AGAINST ANYONE, IN THE CANADA OR U.S. AS I ONLY SHIP TO NORTH-AMERICA. I TAKE PICTURES OF THE ITEM BEFORE AND DURING THE PACKAGING AND I KEEP THE PICTURES TO MYSELF IN CASE SOMETHING GOES WRONG. I ALWAYS SHIP WITH INSURANCE AND TRACKING SO EVERYONE KNOWS WHERE THE PACKAGE IS AT ALL TIMES. NO ONE HAS EVER GOTTEN AWAY WITH FRAUD ON ME. I KNOW EVERY TRICK IN THE BOOK. 1ST TIME EBAYERS AND THE ONES WITH LESS THAN 10 TRANSACTIONS NEED TO CONTACT ME BEFORE BIDDING OR I WILL CANCEL THEIR BID. I DO NOT SHIP OUTSIDE OF NORTH AMERICA. I DO NOT ACCEPT RETURNS ON CGC ITEMS SINCE THEY ARE GUARANTEED BY CGC. PERIOD. who would want to deal with this clown? what do you mean? he's 100% for over 200 transactions, that's not easy to do.... you can't neg buyers...

  5. I disagree. If the seller makes a claim that the book is a 9.8 grade in the title and description of his auction and he has any sort of history on ebay with feedback to back up his grading abilities then someone will pay a premium for it. Obviously it depends on the book and the market at the time. Look at issues of the last of us, a seller on ebay was moving nm/m copies for 45 dollars, nm copies have been selling for around 30.
  6. Is this your listing? http://www.ebay.com/itm/The-Last-of-Us-American-Dreams-2-1st-Printing-/271237114147?pt=US_Comic_Books&hash=item3f26fde923
  7. do an absurd BIN with best offers accepted. you do an auction and you will likely just set a price ceiling for any future 9.8s
  8. Any chance those covers will be available as prints or posters in the future?
  9. ? You're sitting at a computer while on eBay. There is laze involved no matter how you're bidding. I meant lazy as in they are too lazy to actually shop around for the item they are bidding on. People bid on auctions where the exact same item can be bought elsewhere on Ebay through a BIN listing with a lower price than their current bid. Happens all the time.
  10. I was going to write quite a few words in response to this but basically it comes down to this: a lot of ebay users are stupid and/or lazy.
  11. Guaranteeing a grade of 9.8 on a "high priced" raw on ebay is just asking for trouble.
  12. That book appears to be shilled which is sad because as a Scud fan I need that book and because I was hoping it was a real trend of sorts. But sadly it doesn't seem to be that way. I don't think that auction was shilled. That incremental increase in bid's from the same seller is because he had a max bid that wasn't met by the competing bidder right away.
  13. Those auctions are "old" and none were particularly well listed, one picture with no stated condition. The people that have sold them so far don't really seem to know what they have, plus there is confusion over whether its the mini or full size. While they likely produced far more of the variant cover, how many of those are going to be available on the secondary market? They only came with special editions of the game, people who spend the extra money for those usually do it because they want to keep the extra stuff the game came with. And if they do resell it, it would likely be for the whole package.
  14. went for $220 http://www.benl.ebay.be/itm/GOTHAM-CITY-SIRENS-1-CGC-9-8-JG-Jones-VARIANT-Catwoman-Harley-Quinn-HTF-Rare-/271201391383?pt=US_Comic_Books&hash=item3f24dcd317 You can just replace the ebay.com that precedes the item listing web address with benl.ebay.be/ to get the best offer accepted price from ebay belgium
  15. Yea, just saw that auction. "It's NM but it has to be pressed first"...
  16. One copy sold a few hours ago for 28. And a pair of two just sold for 54. Pretty sure the previous high in North America was 25.
  17. uh read the fine print...no simultaneous play That means you cant even both play a game coop or do any online mutiplayer unless you each have a copy, let alone both just play a single player game at the same time...10 people taking turns on one game equals not a fun time. The rules say only one person per shared copy, so co-op is still a go. (At least that's what it sound like) Spencer is pressed upon the issue whether two people can play the same shared game at the same time, stating that he believes that is the case. The policy stated above, however, only says "any one of your family members can be playing from your shared library at a given time," which sounds like it's one at a time. Microsoft Xbox Chief Marketing and Strategy Officer Yusuf Mehdi spoke to Ars Technica, reconfirming that the ten "family" members could be anyone, even someone who is in another city. Users will be able to grant access to other XBL accounts to their shared games library, but Ars Technica notes "only one person can be playing the shared copy of a single game at any given time." http://www.gametrailers.com/side-mission/54648/ms-confirms-xbox-one-family-sharing-feature-allows-up-to-any-ten-people The way I read this is I have a copy of Halo and you are on my friends list. You can play single player at the same time i am playing single player. We can also do co-op since you are sharing my copy and I am the actuall owner. I could be missing something here, but this is how I read it. My question is, how do I kick someone off a shared game while they are playing. My brother and i want to do co-op but you are currently play my shared copy, how do I kick you out? Can I kick you out? Still a lot of questions, but for now it sounds cool. Not that this matters anymore since the family plan is gone, but the plan was to allow the owner of the game to play it at the same time as any of the 10 "friends" on his list. The owner of the game would be playing the game using the disc copy, while the friend would be playing the cloud-based copy.
  18. You mean $99 shipped? http://www.ebay.com/itm/ANNIHILATION-CONQUEST-1-2-3-4-5-6-1st-appearance-GUARDIANS-OF-THE-GALAXY-MOVIE-/140988644293?pt=US_Comic_Books&hash=item20d393fbc5 Nah. He offered me another $25 if I guaranteed #6 was a 9.8. why would he offer to pay more than what the item was listed for?

  20. I don't see any listings past or present for Won Ton Soup on ebay.
  21. http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_sacat=0&_nkw=annihilation%20conquest%206%20cgc&rt=nc&_pppn=r1&LH_Complete=1 You can see that he tried several times to sell it at a higher price and it never got a bite. Now is not the time to be selling copies of that book.
