I bought a CGC 9.2 Tec 404 from this seller a few weeks ago. Shipped very promptly and it was packaged very well.

Won auction on Sunday. Comic book was delivered today. Won over next bidder by one cent. Must be my greatest eBay win ever.

I love the one cent win. If you do a little research on the other bidders, you can do it pretty often. Either that, or hand the high bidder the no cent win on a punishment bid

Even Biker Scouts buy from Saprkle City.

I have both bought and sold books through Sparkle City. A couple of my books actually went for way below fmv ( we are talking about a 5 figure book here) and others I was pleased with the final hammer price. So I really don't think that any shilling is involved. I have also bought the most expensive book I've ever paid for and thought that I got a great deal on it. To each his own but sparkle city is A-ok.

I got bid up on a comic in the last Sparklecity auction where the underbidder bid me up to where I was only ahead by 1 ct and then let me win. I was so pissed!

 

This has happen to me twice and I think it was the same underbidder each time.

Which comic? This happened to me but I was not as happy as you. Maybe there's more to this story....

Sparkle City is a pleasure to deal with.

One of the best sellers on ebay. Never had problems with any of books I brought from them.

Learn to bid amounts like $253.87 and you would have maybe won. If all bidders herd on the same value, then the early bidder will win. You want to snipe, you need to be more creative in the bids you snipe with to override that effect.

I got a nice, GA Action from them last fall on ebay. I was more than pleased with the book. I wouldn't hesitate to purchase from them again.

 

BTW, this is the 3rd Sparkle City thread I have posted in during the last two days, counting today.

I hope that underbidders' comics all get attacked by a swarm of locusts!

I bought a book from Sparkle City a couple weeks ago. I received the book in 3 days. No complaints from me.

They have been posting some really pimp books on ebay lately. I won about 15-20 slabs this year from them and everything was kosher.
