$7500 for that????

[gnat1000]

I was looking at getting one of these lots for fun but not for $75.00 a piece. I dont see where there is $7500 worth of books. I know he doesn't list them all but I wouldn't buy all that stuff hoping that there was some hidden gem he looked over.

I only did something like this once. It was like $12 for a random SA book and I ended up getting Avenger #57 in VFish range. Thing was I was just starting off in comics (and was only 14 I think) so I sold it raw on ebay for like 40ish with a crappy scan and all.

I was curious if they will really get the X-men 1 and some of the other notables...

I bid on a grab bag of books one time and paid $9.95 plus about $4.00 shipping. I was pleasantly surprised to have received Dark Knight Returns 1 - 4 in 9.4 and up. I was amazed! However, I have not since rolled the dice on any of those sort of auctions.

 

throwing $10 at something is one thing, throwing $75.00? That's a bit more of a gamble than I'd like to take.

so on the bidders list, one guy bid on all 100 and only got 90 of them. That would suck if the best books are in the 10 you didn't get wouldn't it?

I thought mystery auctions like that had been banned on ebay?

They haven't allowed them since June this year:
