bapowell Posted February 7, 2022 Share Posted February 7, 2022 Pristine Auction (https://www.pristineauction.com/) has weekly comic auctions. These generally include CGC-graded books, but every week there tends to be one or two raw Amazing Spider-Man 300's up for auction. The strange thing is that the photos for the AS 300's are always the same, even though the website states "Due to the uniqueness of each item, please refer to the photos provided in this auction" suggesting that these are intended to be the photos of the actual item. Evidently they aren't, and when I asked them, Pristine Auction brushed me off with an irrelevant reply about how auctions are conducted on their website. So, has anyone dealt with them? Thanks!

Red84 Posted February 7, 2022 Share Posted February 7, 2022 I've been following their sports cards auctions for a couple months and I see what appear to be the same cards being listed over and over. It's strange. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red84 Posted February 7, 2022 Share Posted February 7, 2022 There also seems to be a lot of auctions with reserve prices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bapowell Posted February 7, 2022 Author Share Posted February 7, 2022 I believe it could be that the reserve was never met on this item. I had thought several of the AS 300 lots had sold, but now I can't seem to verify this. So, I'm going to chalk this up to me jumping the gun and not being careful. Surely don't wish to drag Pristine Auction through the mud unnecessarily. Apologies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
