Iceman399 Posted December 7, 2013 Share Posted December 7, 2013 I don't see it going much above its starting price. Has a reserve yet started at 27k... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaydogrules Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 I don't see it going much above its starting price. Has a reserve yet started at 27k... Yes that's kind of odd but I think it will top $30K easy. -J. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But 8.0's aren't exactly falling out of the trees and a CR/OW book can easily come back an OW book or better on a resub if it really bothered someone that much. Me personally, I give PQ the least amount of weight on a label, so long as the pages aren't brittle or noticeably Tan on the edges. -J. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boba Posted December 8, 2013 Author Share Posted December 8, 2013 It's a real nice looker for sure, and I think this book is poised to make a move. The timing is good and the CR/OW PQ is not that big a deal, IMHO. Granted a white pager would be off the charts but a new to market looker like this has potential.

Iceman399 Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 (edited) Didn't Barry make his appearance on Arrow recently? I watch it once the season is finished to give it an all in one go. Think Showcase is gunna make some huge waves in the coming years Edited December 8, 2013 by iceman399 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well looks like there is already a bunch of movement on it (which is always a good sign for the seller). I still don't get why they wouldn't start it where they are happy selling it and not set the reserve, as that always scares off a number of bidders. Hopefully not that many with a book like this. Maybe over the holidays will catch up to be current...fill the void of nothing on TV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe over the holidays will catch up to be current...fill the void of nothing on TV. The only time a reserve makes sense to me, is if a buyer is unsure of the interest and how strong the bidding will be on an item - and they can adjust the reserve downward if the interest is light - but eBay makes it so cost-prohibitive to list with a reserve (especially if the item doesn't sell) that I think it has caused folks to shy away from listing with a reserve. I don't know, that's my theory. Otherwise I really can't see why people avoid bidding on reserve auctions - I mean you CAN always ask the seller what the reserve is - many times I have and they were pleased to provide me with this information. It always seems when the starting price is high, the item just sits there with no bids. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
