Many Facebook Lives are based on the same premise. 

Little time to think, many people throwing bids at it in a frenzy, going WELL over the value, etc.   

For a seller, this is great news.  For the buyer, it's a bit foolish.   It's really killing the collecting side for me.

 I'm not interesting in whatsnot or facebook sales.  I still prefer to buy at comic shows, occasional Heritage or Comiclink buy, the boards, and mycomicshop.  Avoid the high pressure sales and the bull.

But.....isn't your booth at shows a high pressure sales pit?

Can't believe this book is selling at this price still I have 2 copies but as crazy as I am about completing Batman I would pass (if I didn't have it) for just about any GA or SA or BA Batman book at this price.

I see this a lot - All super fast show the book and the 1st bid wins.  And some of the buyers have their own FBLive selling shows as well, so lots of crossbuying.

Like a 3-Card Monte on a Vegas sidewalk. Lots of shills.

Wondering if Marvel Age #98 (1st Toxic Avenger) and The Toxic Avenger #1, his first issue are going to heat up at some point. I believe the remake is in the can and fully filmed, even meant to come out this year. Yet I feel like I've heard very little if anything about it.

I feel like they've both already had their boom moment and have settled back down. Like almost everything, they are going for less than half of what they were in mid-2021.  Might see a slight bump if the movie ever comes out. But probably not much.

Remember Copper Lovers, it always better to sell the sizzle, not the steak . . .

This.

 I was borderline ecstatic when I plucked my previously worthless copy of Marvel Age 98 & sold it for what seemed like an absurd amount last year

I'm not sure this is the case anymore.  The last few trailers have had minimal affect. Everyone is onto this scheme and so many copies hit the market after the trailer that over-saturation sets in. 

The jig is up, the news is out, they finally found me.....

Sell on the rumor, announcement, or wait and get lucky if the released product is amazing

Or just rarely sell.  That's my approach.

That seems to be my post-June model . . .

So you're telling me it isn't 2021 anymore and my random long boxes of mixed junk aren't worth $5K anymore? That's depressing. I guess I shouldn't have disappeared.

But you did get a letter "T" for the first letter of your board handle as an avatar, a new default for those who had none btw.

I guess I need an avatar because the T looks dumb, although people made fun of my last one and the one before that.
