Re: Which one to buy
A fool and his money...is soon a broke fool with an overpriced X-O 1 CGC 9.8Daniel Jackson wrote:I think some of the sellers hope the buyer will be lazy and just buy the first one they see.dhudson1 wrote:Hard to believe there is such a descrepancy for the same CGC book. Don't sellers look at what other people are charging before setting up a buy it now?

Bizarre shipping prices from someone I was just tempted to buy from:
So its free postage for the first comic and then 25p extra if you buy anymore. Pretty strange. It stopped me from bidding...Here are the payment details . Postage and packing will cost £0.00 for the first comic unless otherwise stated, and 25p per additional comic in the UK. FOR EUROPE, OVERSEAS AND AMERICA WILL COST £3.00 and 25p per additional comic. So if you buy more than one comic there is a charge of 25p each after the first one.

We see too often how sellers overprice and overgrade their junk. So what happens when the seller also have no clue as to what he's selling?

I wish Ebay would let us ask questions like, "Yes, I have a question about this item.

Couple of them on eBay right now. The $50 one is pretty cheap, I think.tmcneil82 wrote:What would a fair price for a 9.6 of that be. I kinda want one, eventually.

Ummmm.... What the hell?
I also just saw a run of Harbinger 0-44 that went for $300 best offer. I guess 42-44 are homemade or something.
