You do know the sales area and Ebay are extremely different.

 

Yup, you do know that every single thing I have sold on there has been deals worked in PMs. Not everyone has to list things dirt cheap for others to flip. I am more than happy to accommodate people and work things out.

 

There are many people who cruise around the selling area and expect insane discounts (in the modern area anyway), buy stuff, and then list it back in the selling area or on ebay a week later for way more money.

 

A lot of moderns havent had enough sales to form real price data. <10 data points on GPA doesnt make for valid valuations. Especially when the market can change quickly.

 

Ebay auctions, by bid, are FAR more accurate in showing what multiple people are currently willing to pay for something. Last sales of a book are a VERY valid place to start negotiations from, and as I say in my thread. "I am open to listen to all offers, I just ask that people share the logic behind it with me".

 

"I want it 25% below ebay so i can flip it tomorrow", not the kind of logic i am looking to sell to.

 

One last thing, you seem to like taking little shots at me. You can go ahead and keep sniping, I am not going to take the bait and argue with you.

 

Last statement: On ebay I listed my books for $530 shipped, so it was already more than 10% off that when I listed it in the selling section.

 

Cheers (thumbs u

It wasn't a snipe, sorry if you took it that way.

 

If I was looking for top dollar for moderns, I wouldn't put them on here.

 

People here on the boards are smarter buyers? Less eager to spend big books on moderns? Smaller target group?

 

 

And when did I get into it with you before? Seriously don't remember.

 

Also, you did just argue with me. Last time I checked it was okay to argue.

 

Why am I typing like Larry?

you said something along the lines of, everything i post is obnoxious/arrogant. I dont really remember. We didnt get into it, i mostly ignored it.

 

As for arguing, i meant vis-a-vis personal attacks. In terms of defending my sales post, I am happy to post the what/why, even if that is arguing/debating.

 

Since you asked every so nicely, ThoseBackPages; here goes a small glimpse into my Hoard; hence, my screen name :sumo:

Hey RH... if you ever want to sell one of those #2 9.9 (or trade)... please knock on my door. :grin:

 

I think he is the one who bought them both that day from ebay, from jerry3204. I know they were posted in this thread as they were listed. (remember i tried to PM you about them :grin:), but they sold instantly...

Incorrect, buddy! Both of these were sent to CGC by me and came back as 9.9s. Jerry sold them tooooo early IMHO.

:golfclap: very impressive. I think he is in the business to move books, not hold them, but yah, you will definitely see much higher prices hanging on to them.

 

Congrats on hitting the 9.9s

Personal attacks?

 

How did I attack you personally?

 

By stating that the majority of time you won't get Ebay prices on the boards? That's just a fact, not an attack.

The word "you", is a collective "you".

 

And didn't you do quite nice with your stash of Saga?

 

Also, I'm looking to see if you did I hate you before lol

dont understand the last sentence, and no need to derail the thread. let me answer your question simpler.

Yup, that's very obvious, and I am quite aware. Thank you for double checking, glad I could answer your question.

 

Cheers my friend (thumbs u

What do you think of the latest Phantom Variant covers, I think everyone seems to universally like the covers, even if they dont like having more variants to get.
