Shill bidding.

[Pitboss]

You are most likely correct....

[Stromm]

Shill bidding.

come on now, let's be "PC"

The seller thought the deal was too good to pass up.

WTF? I knew I should have stored a bunch of those Spidey books when they came out...

Shill bidding.

 

Poor spideyfan101...

Seems like a crazy amount of $$ for a non CGC Spiderman 194.

[cloudofwit]

Bad luck with the black cat on the Bay?

Platinum Spidey....Maybe, for someone with deep pockets.

But that ASM 194 Raw!!!!!!???

Maybe I should start scanning my books sideways!

[homerwannabee]

Yeah that is not worth the risk. A typical 194 CGC 9.6 may get about $300. But how often does a raw 9.6 stated by the seller actually turn out to be 9.6? Then you have to figure in the odds of this comic getting nicked to the buyer and then the buyer shipping it to CGC. In my opinion the risks are very high and the rewards are very low.

Purchaser thought it was the rare, sideways, flipped out variant?

If you go to the seller's feedback, he bought an "almost" identical copy of ASM 194 on May 18. Apparently, he used an "almost identical photostock on his auction, which started on May 11 and ended on May 16.
