Actually, GPA won't report the high prices.  They have access to the real sales prices.  They report the discounted amount.  Check it out on any best offer acceptance.

Turns out you are incorrect. During this sale, I bought an X-Men #10 CGC 8.0 that was listed for a buy it now of $350 (-20% off, for an end price of $280). 

Here it is listed on GPA as a $350 sale:

2018	(1) $350Hi
Mar-09-2018 $350 Cert# 1396878002

Right - I've already been corrected once.  The statement is correct as far as true best offer amounts being reported by GPA.

Yes sir, I saw that after I replied to you. GPA also mis-reports when a seller clicks the button for "send offer" via an email reply. So, if the item is for sale for $1000, and the seller does "send offer" via email for $600, GPA will report it as a $1000 sale.

Some one got a heck of a deal with the coupon (probably since it was March 9th same as coupon), compared to recent sale's in grade  

SALE= oh and it was a "best offer"

Actually past sales look like a lot of "best offers" 

And from low to high, you can really tell the auction of $2,400 was an outlier....

I don't have GPA, but I do my best

I see a lot of cool stuff Marked sold on March 9th, even a Double Cover DC comics Presents 47 cgc 9.6.

ANYWAY

it'll at least keep the mail carriers busy this week

1900 is right on the dot for average.  http://comics.gocollect.com/priceguide/view/134372

I'd rather save 20% on $500 than 5% of 1900 even if it is $100 either way.

It is interesting that on the $1900 sale ebay breaks even since the seller pays the $100 final value fee.  On a $500 book the fee is only $50 so ebay loses another $50 on it.

With that said I only saved $32 on a hardcover since the graded books were overpriced.

Yes! I made an offer on eBay for an ASM 94 once & GPA recorded the original bin. There was a pretty big difference there. I don't know if that's GPA's fault or eBay's?

I suppose the next question on many boardies minds is... will and when eBay be having the 20% discount coupon up in offer again? 

St Patrick’s Day?

Easter weekend?

Next holiday?

$50 max discount so looks like you max out at around $350.

No you have to enter it at the bottom where it says coupon at checkout. Make sure you don't buy it now but put it in your cart then go to checkout and enter the code to get the discount.

Thanks for hijacking my thread I posted before you reused this thread for 20% off that's not the case currently

Separate deal, separate thread

Yes! Just add stuff to your cart, then "proceed to checkout" and enter the code in the "coupons, etc" portion.

What about items that have Best Offer option?
