Jaydogrules Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 My CGC 8.0 sold for $450 on the bay. I couldn't even get that for my 8.5 at megacon Something about ebay evidently compels people to overpay for movie hype books that are readily available for cheaper at other venues for some reason. Go figure. -J. You mean it's not shilling? -J. The 8.0 had White pages, Ricks only had OW/W I guess I had that coming. -J. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
valiantman Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 Something about ebay evidently compels people to overpay for movie hype books that are readily available for cheaper at other venues for some reason. Go figure. What other venues? Conventions? They're always attended by less than 1% of the market. Retailer websites? It would take a long time to check every retailer website. For a consumer population that is used to buying new stuff from Amazon and old stuff from Ebay, it doesn't get much easier than "search-buy-receive" from a single website.

Loukayza Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 I think Paypal Credit leads some to overpay online vs. cash in person, just a hunch.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Point Five Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 I think Paypal Credit leads some to overpay online vs. cash in person, just a hunch.... That's a great point, and being honest it sounds like me. Many times I've taken the plunge on a big book online that I wouldn't have done by handing over a wad of bills (likely my whole convention budget for the day) to a dealer. Paypal Credit makes it easier to 'gamble' with sums normally out of your comfort zone... which for me is a net positive, though there are clearly dangers as well.

larrytrulove Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 Just curious...I don't know if anyone saw the cgc 9.8 SS signed by Timm, Burnett and a few others... Looks like he wants $2200 for it which would be a record. I feel like the SS version especially with these signatures makes it tough to turn down. Can anyone give me the pros/cons of this and either talk me off the edge or talk me into buying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kimik Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 With non-SS copies hitting as high as $2000 just $2200 is a steal for that SS copy. Go for it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vikingreed Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 If it's for your PC, get it if it makes you happy. That's my motto anyway. Timm signed books don't pop very often. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
