Cap #46 bidding officially out of control

30 posts in this topic

At this point I'm not so sure I want to see Overstreet 'fixed'. I've invested alot of time over the years figuring out what percentage of guide I'm willing to pay for whichever books I desire on a case by case basis. As long as the movement isn't that dramatic from year to year I don't have to adjust my formulas much. If the guide started showing the true values for everything, I would get very confused.

Well, how else can a dealer justify to pay so little for a Cap Am 46 to turn around and sell it at a premium to people who know it's off in the guide ... It's been a cynical kind of day for me ...

 

It's a good reason to keep the guide low, that's for sure and then say how undervalued that book is when you go to buy. I remeber a dealer asling 4x guide for a Wendy the Good Little Witch # 1 and saying how undervalued it is. I'm feeling a bit cynical too.

How fortunate for you that the firt six underbidders all passed on the 2nd chance offer- don't hesitate, snap it up immediately even if you have to send cash via western union to a foriegn country - you'll neverr see a bargain like that again. Maybe the seller could keep your credit card number on file in case he has future deals like that.

I was thinking of sending cash money, well hidden between two sheets of paper.

good plan. Use me as safe harbor though, just in case.
