No Reserve Auction - Journey Into Mystery 85 - Ends at 10PM Tonight

[1Cool]

I'm auctioning off a reader copy of Journey Into Mystery 85 tonight. The auction will end at 10:00 PM EST 3/12/15 but the auction will extend 10 minutes after each bid so the actual end of the auction will be decided by how many bids are put in at the last minute. Just to clarify - a bid at 9:55 will extend the auction until 10:05. A bid at 9:59 extend the closing until 10:09 - the extention of 10 minutes will be based on timestamp of the previous bid. I think its pretty sell explanatory but I'm happy to answer any questions via PM. The final bid price will include shipping even if the winner is outside the US.

I just read it and all pages are accounted for and both staples are holding firm. I'd book is not brittle but a bit stiff due to the old water staining and the staples have a tad bit of rust but nothing crazy. I have it graded as a FR but I'm not too familiar with how CGC looks at this type of water stains.

Almost forgot - the BIN is set at $500 since I want to see where it end at. And the bid increments have to be at least $1 larger then the previous bid.

Got a question that others may have so I'll post my response up here.

 

If a bid comes in at 9:55 then the auction is extended until 10:05 unless someone else bids before 10:05 and then the auction is extended from that new time. Theoretically the auction will keep going forever but I'm thinking we will get a winner soon after 10:00.

Looks like we may not need the extension after all. 5 minutes left.

Sorry man - there was more then 10 minutes between your bid and his last bid. The 10 minute window had elapsed.
