"Dear flying-donut,

 

If no one outbids my $5.00 bid, is $5.00 all I have to pay at the end of the bidding? I just didn't want any surprise prices to hit me at the last minute because aside from the shipping and handling If push came to shove I couldn't afford to bid more than $10.00 for this item. my current bid is $5.00. Thanks. God Bless you. Please Email me back"

I'd happily pay $20 just to see the look on his face.

 

 

Anybody got a webcam in his vicinity?

[Benchwarmer-migration]

Possibly a kid? Or someone new to Ebay?

 

We do tend to get jaded over time........

Well, if I'm looking at the right auction, the $5 bidder has 51 feedbacks, so they ain't a newbie....so yeah, that's a pretty bent question to send a seller......

 

[lizards2]

I wonder what "hidden fees" he's been socked with in the past :shrug:

 

Maybe his last order was from an auction house.....,

Which raises an interestoing question...

 

Can an ebay seller institute his own buyer's premium?

[Wally's Comics]

gimmee a link to the auction and I will bid it up to $10.01 for you...

i'm more shocked that 608 is still a $10+ book, but i guess the movie rehyped things

 

now if only superman 203 was a $2 book I'd be on easy street! (o.k., I'd be able to buy the family dinner at KFC with the profits)

oh yeah FD,

 

If no one outbids my $10.01 bid, is $10.01 all I have to pay at the end of the bidding? I just didn't want any surprise prices to hit me at the last minute because aside from the shipping and handling If push came to shove I couldn't afford to bid more than $15.01 for this item. my current bid is $10.01. Thanks. God Bless you. Please Email me back.

you know what, let's not try to scare off/embarass new money coming in to buy ebay comics. i, for one, am happy to have the fresh faces. one of these days i might even make a real effort to list stuff on ebay again.
