wombat Posted January 10, 2023 Author Share Posted January 10, 2023 So the guy replied and sent me this listing as "justification" for his listing. Of course I pointed out that this listing says "commemorative" in the title. But what the heck is going on? It can't possibly be worth that much. https://www.ebay.com/itm/385320082443?hash=item59b6dddc0b%3Ag%3AjnIAAOSwTXZjrMMq&amdata=enc%3AAQAHAAAAsCh%2FyhaJjnytm1LLmXJrNhpv%2Bny6wH2LPZi%2F3ACZDngiZREcAh7uLlTdFnbiO8X4lOZ2auS4fi3IfJE9lZoqnOsO1yAze7PEnH8g%2FKv3wIgkJqY2F%2BGQjvGCXcblR%2B7Thp0ftUKfgIa3aGVkS0RRQIH2Owl8V%2FzGsa1bWfhCbIQq33TriJtD5jjZ%2FmGbyFEW%2F1GjVgGzM8O9loWGwfP98yP1Fvmamkeu7ePD8KTC8CzH|tkp%3ABk9SR8rPrZqzYQ&nma=true&si=SnjdZ8Dh54XZ%2BIdyi2aqzjJRSxs%3D&orig_cvip=true&nordt=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557 oakman29 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not even a very good copy (8.5 looks generous), or even a foil copy.

wombat Posted January 10, 2023 Author Share Posted January 10, 2023 He changed the description and lowered the price to $100. At least he did the right thing. oakman29, Jayman, Randall Dowling and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Axe Elf Posted January 11, 2023 Share Posted January 11, 2023 (edited) Got some Christmas money but no Warrens? Own every CREEPY and EERIE for $2400 (same seller, maybe a couple hundred less if you make an offer on both)!!! CREEPY run Link EERIE run Link From a different seller, there is also a near-full run (missing 19 issues) of VAMPIRELLA for $3500 more--with a CGC 5.5 #1. VAMPIRELLA run Link Congratulations! You are now a little over halfway to owning every magazine ever published by Warren! Edited January 11, 2023 by Axe Elf oakman29 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makmorn Posted February 17, 2023 Share Posted February 17, 2023 It's up to $760, but the last bidder has 0 feedback, still some guy with 570 feedback had bid $750. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makmorn Posted February 20, 2023 Share Posted February 20, 2023 (edited) This last one went for $820, $10 more than the last ridiculous one. Actually, it's the same one, so it didn't technically sell the first time, guess none of the under-bidders wanted it.
