From the world of Moderns... :o

 

the seller posted this in the Dell'Otto appreciation thread in moderns

 

 

I am out of the small and illustrious ASM 667 club, but I'm $9,000 richer... who was saying that this wouldn't sell? You wouldn't believe how many emails I received. You also wouldn't believe how many offers north of $7.5K I received. I am sure I will regret selling it. To anyone who says that it is "absurd" that a modern can fetch this much... here's a warm glass of STFU. Thanks :)

:o Well that settles that then. lol

 

I saw when it first hit ebay. Something like 50 views an hour with 40 watchers in 18 hours, and the book sold in under a day. Flipping books is not my thing, but I'd say yours was a successful one.

 

Congrats on the sale, and yeah I'll be taking your membership key to the club house on your way out the door. :grin:

Before anyone pops champagne corks for this individual, take note of the following:

 

Item listed for sale. I contact with an offer. Seller says fine, contact via CGC boards. I am tied up with family business for a day and in different timezone.

Seller sends a message via Ebay, asking if I still want the item. I say yes, and follow up with another email.

 

Then I learn via my good friend Master Jay here the item has been sold. I check the thread, and sure enough, here's the seller gloating ( :boo: ) When I advise this is unprofessional, I am advised "it is what it is" and that I am letting my emotions "get the better of me", which is ridiculous as anyone who has done business with me would know.

 

So, one seller with more $ (albeit temporarily I'm guessing) but far less credibility.

 

I think I will now go and snap up another AF#15 in the 2.0-3.0 grade. With a professional seller...

:popcorn:

If World Devourer is going to buy an AF15 instead then I say he got lucky that the situation ended up this way. If the seller was gloating before informing potential buyers then that is some weak sauce!
