Auction Hall of Shame!

Yet ANOTHER Neat Stuff auction wherein they demonstrate their inability to understand the AUCTION format.

Once again: NOTHING is "FREE" in an auction where the BUYER determines the price, by the VERY NATURE OF THE AUCTION PROCESS.

"throwing in" things "for free" in an auction merely inspires buyers to COMPENSATE for the VALUE of those "free" items by BIDDING MORE.

Think about it this way: I have a lot of Rai #1, X-O #1, and Solar #1. $10-$15 lot, right?

But...in THIS auction, I'm going to throw in a VF X-Men #94 'For free'.

Does ANYONE think this is now a $10-$15 auction?

Please.

Idiots.

Remember: it's only TRULY "free" if it's NOT MENTIONED.

High, yes but someone might want it at that price. You do a lot of *SQUEE* about prices on graded Valiant books, don't ya?

You're REALLY going to hate mine when I put them out there.

This gal made sure she was front and center in the photo that's for sure.

Guys, I spent a few years going to the clubs in Manhattan and partying down with all kinds and types of people. And I will tell you right now A MAN is holding that spidey comic, no doubt about it!

You could be right Woogie, but I just looked at the picture again and I'm just not convinced about the dude theory.

If you check out the pictures in the other auctions this sellers has up and has completed, I think it sheds doubt on woogie's theory. Not that there's anything wrong with that....

It's cheaper to buy new boards since the shipping cost is at about 30 bucks

All white acid free boards around here cost between 5 to 7 bucks per 100.

Nah, that's just not a flattering picture; plus she wearing super tight bottoms (even though she's a skinny girl).

Her pictures are all over the other auctions:

Bah, one of them has her with her shirt pulled up and her belly showing. Now I'm just not into it. I feel like I'm being mocked. Although for a bit she had me all hot!

Whats that above her eyes? Is she part albino and forgot to put makeup over that area?
Wonder if that glows in the dark.....

I don't understand why this guy jacks the price up everytime it doesn't sell?
