Lightning55 Posted April 5, 2021 Share Posted April 5, 2021 Looks like a great deal - it's missing only FOURTEEN PAGES!! (Pages 21-34 missing, affects story) ya think??? Maybe 2 zero feedback stupid bidders thought they were bidding on an Amazing Spider-Man 1. The title says Annual, but the description says Amazing Spider-Man 1, no mention of annual. That's enough to trip up those without sufficient gray matter. Doesn't look like a shill. No bid retractions. Sure, the opposing bid was "probed", but usually the shill stops short of winning. And each would take the lead at some point, then the other come in over the top. Hard to tell which would be the shill - 3***4 or 3***7. Maybe it was shill vs. shill. Sticking with my first assessment - 2 equally stupid bidders. One was lucky (the 2nd place bidder).

B2D327 Posted April 5, 2021 Share Posted April 5, 2021 (edited) I think I’m gonna go with the shill labeling on this one too. Wouldn’t be surprised if seller and bidders were all associated with the same payment method/account that would get them all suspended. The children working at eBay aren’t the sharpest tools in the shed these days. Edited April 5, 2021 by B2D327 Cliff R. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BoogieWoogie Posted April 6, 2021 Share Posted April 6, 2021 It's immoral but I get it now. Even though this isn't real and I know it's not real I'm thinking about picking up the ASM Annual 1 nearby. Only has half a cover, think it was a returned copy back in the day but I don't have one and now I want it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've got my eye on a 2.0 CGC purple label from a resubbed Annual 1. No book, just the label. The seller also has a 2.0 blue label. Just the label and the back half of the slab with slight corner crack, but that's already over my budget.

THE_BEYONDER Posted April 6, 2021 Share Posted April 6, 2021 I like how the seller points out that it’s a 72 page book in the title, but it’s missing pages 23-35 Cliff R. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
