This is the only way I bid. Great looking copy btw. I've seen auctions on Ebay go from ~300 to way over 1000 in literally the last second. Can't be unexpected. On the other hand there's auctions on pedigree that go into like 5 or 6 sessions of extended bidding. Just nature of the beast badback83 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, I know it has a lot of spine ticks but very eager to get my hands on it and see the rest of the book. I only paid $15 for it and it was one I needed for my collection. Will post up a PGM once I receive it. 14 minutes ago, MGsimba77 said: I've seen auctions on Ebay go from ~300 to way over 1000 in literally the last second. Can't be unexpected.

Just nature of the beast That seems fine if it's going from 300 to 1000, but when someone comes in at the last seconds and bits 300.25 to try steal the bid it's annoying. Thankfully a lot of auctions have now picked up on this and are now offering the first person that bid and the second last bidder an oppurtunity to out bid the last bid if it was done in a certain time.

F For Fake Posted November 18, 2019 Share Posted November 18, 2019 As long as an auction has a set ending time that everyone is aware of, I don't see the issue. Bid what you're willing to spend. If someone else is willing to spend more, then they get it. When the bids end shouldn't matter. Larryw7 and badback83 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

speedcake Posted November 18, 2019 Share Posted November 18, 2019 A bid entered in the final second is just as valid as a bid entered in the first second. Why is this even remotely controversial DR.X, badback83, F For Fake and 1 other 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There has been some great covers, some seem limited to lenticular covers which is a shame as I really don't like lenticular books.

Why is this even remotely controversial Exactly. I put my max bid in right at the end. I don’t understand getting salty over it. Last second bidders aren’t “scamming” the system somehow. comicdonna 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The one on the right does have a nasty little spine tick just below the upper left staple, but is otherwise very nice. The one on the left is in great condition, maybe even a 9.8 candidate with a press because of the dreaded poly bag indent on back. It has been signed by Sara Pichelli with no CoA, so I’m not quite sure what that might do to the resell value if I ever decide to part ways with it. I have mixed feelings about CBCS authenticating signatures without witnessing them. Anyway, for now they are probably going to stay in the collection because as far as modern characters go, Miles might be the best long term investment there is, and more importantly, it’s just a beautiful book.

Popular Post miraclemet Posted November 20, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted November 20, 2019 Robbedoes, the Dutch language version of Spirou 1071 and 1072. (1st Smurf and 1st Smurf cover). Produced simultaneous with Spirou. Belgium is half French , half Dutch, thus the need for versions in each language... 4th copy in census of 1071, only 2nd of 1072 White pages....mmmmm nepatkm, Frederic9494, badback83 and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post BabaLament Posted November 20, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted November 20, 2019 Hello all! Its been a while; I think my last post was from back in September. Its been a while since I've had the opportunity to talk comics. On the bright side, I succeeded in converting "girlfriend" into "fiancée." Since then, I've managed to exceed expectations, and expand my comic collection. I picked up the Spawn #300 ASM #300 swipes, as well as the Image Mexico reprints. I've been happily picking up Absolute Carnage, and associated tie-in, variants. Very excited for the upcoming Marvel X variants, as the Spider-Man cover will feature Earth X Venom. One of the more inspired Venom designs, IMHO. I also managed to find a set of Spider-Man 2099 connecting cover variants. While I'm not a huge fan of 2099 Venom, the connecting covers look nice on display. ADAMANTIUM, Ken Aldred, F For Fake and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
