My opinion of Dizneyart is plummeting..........

Also check out the highbidders auctions.

I never said that everyone bidding on the book were newbie's that was kind of implied through out this thread. I did think that having as much pertinent info in the auction as possible, might save a newbie from over paying for a book.

 

For give me for trying to protect some possible newer collectors out there, that may have been high thinking that this was the original.

 

If people in the know want to bid this book up to $10,000 .....more power to them.

 

If a newbie wants to bid $500 bucks on a book like this, then again I agree 98% of the blame has to fall squarly on the buyer. The seller can do some things to prevent possible mistakes by newer bidders

It does say re-issue. What seems to be the problem? It's not like he cleans and presses like Jason Ewert, Heritage or maybe Metropolis.

I didn't mean any harm buy the term newbies. I just wanted to point out that the dude buys high buck comics and sells " amazing fantasy 15" expensive comics. I just find the dynamics of selling a Amazing Fantasy and buying a reprint for almost the same price interesting to say the least.

There is another thread on this same auction somewhere...can't remeber where. But I stated there and I'll state here, that the seller has been totally upfront. The book is clearly listed as a reprint and the large scan of the CGC label verifies this.

 

If suckers want to part with silly money for a reprint, then thats their problem.

To be honest...I do believe that "Golden Record Reprint" should have been stated somewhere in the auction listing...although the scans do clearly show that this is not the original sometimes images are not accessable due to internet problems...and the term "reissue" could be quickly glanced over by an excited bidder...

Well if the buyer gets that excited that he cant read entire auction description thats his fault

I'm not assigning blame here...just noting that in the spirit of full disclosure it would have been nice to have GRR stated somewhere in the listing...

He couldn't have been clearer in his description.

This was my whole point in this thread and the original one I started, nothing more nothing less. I don't think the seller has done anything wrong, it's his perogative to not list GRR, which is the only shady (not dishonest) part of his auction.

Some history on this book....

History

 

Disneyart sells to stumpy mustang 11/27/03 $ 610.

 

Stumpymustang trys to sell......reserve not met $ 410 12/5/03

 

Stumpymustang trys to sell again....reserve not met $210

 

Now Dizneyart is selling it again.................

 

Do the words "trying to create a market" ring any bells for you ?

 

If this does not set off a shill alert for you, its because you don't want it to.

[greggy]

Different books. The first book has OW pages. The current one has OWW pages. So...

[the_Greatest]

 

 

You're right....

[FFB]

What about the part where he says that the book's value is between $500 and $700 for chrissakes?????

WILSON IS SIMPLY USING THIS AUCTION TO ADVERTISE HIS WEBSITE...NOT TO SWINDLE ANYONE...IF ANYTHING, IT WILL GIVE HIM A HEADACHE WHEN THE UNINFORMED BUYER WANTS HIS MONEY BACK.

No, actually I think he uses eBay to move stuff that's been sitting on his website for too long.

[clarkkentdds]

...SO YOU DON'T THINK THIS IS PRIMARILY USED AS AN ADVERTISEMENT FOR PGC HUH? CHECK THE LISTING AGAIN. IT'S A SHREWD SELF PROMOTION FOR ANYONE (NEWBIE OR VETERAN) WHO SEARCHES "SPIDERMAN #1 NM" ON EBAY. YES- IT ALSO SOLVES THE MOVEMENT OF SURPLUS TOO...TWO BIRDS- ONE STONE.

[clarkkentdds]

HE WON'T BE ABLE TO "MOVE" THIS ANYWAYS, ONCE THE BUYER FIGURES OUT IT'S THE REPRINT.
