A while ago someone here posted about the Defenders#28 Starhwak page that sold on eBay for a sum that was a steal, IMHO.

I didn't realize people still put desirable art on eBay in an auction format anymore. lol

That's probably why I didn't get the same impression as you, I can't remember the last time I checked eBay for artwork. So many prints, posters, art with sky high BINs and NSFW junk clogging the OA areas there that I gave up on it a long time ago.

You'd be surprised. I posted a link to one here a couple months ago. It was the Berni Wrightson inside cover Starlord splash from Marvel Preview 4.  Should have been on CLink or HA. It was nuts.

Exactly. You can still find some great stuff there. And no buyers premium. 

Is it better now?

I ask because, for the longest time, everything was listed with a High Bin or, if it was run as an auction, anything of remotely good quality would get pulled down before it ended. 

Then there were the hundreds of dealer "auctions" with silly BINs on them on pieces that would never sell and the BINs would get increased every year. Like a permanent museum.

It depends. You have to do some legwork. I stick to pure auctions or BO pages. The BIN's almost literally never sell. They might as well be in a CAF Gallery.

There's several Preacher pages that went up recently, including one from issue #1. (Probably about 40-50% too high, but maybe not!)

You can definitely find stuff.

Here's that Wrightson Starlord.

Amazing that anyone would use ebay to sell.   It's a great place to buy, provided you are willing to spend countless hours wading through listings, looking for that rare, genuine piece of comic art at a bargain price, which few other people saw because they don't have the time or the patience to scroll past thousands of "sexy" pieces of fan art.

Can't blame people for listing BIN only, because the odds are very strong that virtually any piece of actual Original Comic Art on ebay will get lost among the uncountable listings for near-porn fan art and go unseen by 99 percent of potential buyers.

You just have to learn how to refine your searches.

I type in a long list of excluded words that keeps getting longer as I try to weed out the drek and then somebody dreams up some new way to clog my search results.   You think you're rid of the drek when you've excluded everything from "sexy" to "homage" to "print" to "acetate" and a dozen other words in between, and then you still come up with multiple examples of krrapp that was, for example, "inspired by" Kirby.

Have you tried searching under "Panel pages" or "covers?" I can see where splashes wouldn't filter out much.

I've done better selling on eBay than on clink or heritage. All stuff under 5k. I've lost money on most of the pages I've sold on the big two.

The bloodbath over the Avengers 76 page is making the fight over the Hush page look like a church picnic.
