I would have been specific if it was and nothing wrong if it was. No secret we both buy and sell copies. So I doubt any pitchforks would be raised I was just commenting how that looked so similar to a copy I had had....straight forward to me , but I knew my intent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otherwise I prefer to wait for them to post a new scan, as my scanner doesn't handle slabs very well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boba Posted January 4, 2016 Author Share Posted January 4, 2016 Here's a reasonably nice looking raw copy for sale on eBay: http://www.ebay.com/itm/272087819362?redirect=mobile A zero and low feedback bidder had it bid up to $15k but the bids were cancelled and another $10k was retracted (probably when the bids for were cancelled). Thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

roulette44 Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 I messaged the seller to point out the shady bids (noting that i wasn't accusing him of anything). He responded that he would address (presumably make sure the bids were real and cancel them otherwise). Looks like that's what's happened. I've said it before, but it's SO frustrating how this shilling can disrupt the normal sales process.....Wish ebay did more (yeah, i know - more chance of finding a 3-legged ballerina ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weaponx77 Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 You're right Joey, I hope this seller is honest in regards to the SC4 sale on eBay, I have personal experience in getting scammed with crooked ebayers, thanks to Joey though my horrible experience has been put to rest thanks for the Superman #2 book it is amazing to own that book.... kudos my friend.....

Boba Posted January 4, 2016 Author Share Posted January 4, 2016 The only way to buy a book like this is to go pick it up in person, and even then you have to be expert enough to be able to spot restoration or trimming. Why I never bought a book this big, raw anyway, off of eBay. Still, it's fun to watch and see how high will it go Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weaponx77 Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 I agree Boba, it's fun watching these auctions but at the same time one has to be extremely careful and watch out for these filthy scammers preying on our hobby. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
showcase22gr1959 Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 Are you thinking about selling? In fact it'll be in the upcoming signature auction at Heritage. Did you keep your undercopy or did you get it sold? Indeed I sold all mine, this will have to keep me for a while. Going for downgrade or something else cool?

piper Posted January 6, 2016 Share Posted January 6, 2016 All, what's price per point on a low to mid grade copy? Yes, I have GPA, but was looking for other input... Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
