More Fun 52 on eBay disappeared like Spectre himself!

20 posts in this topic

He had three other sales - all one bidder - all completed yesterday 12-19-2018.

a BIN on Action #2 CGC Restored 2.0 @ $7,700, start price of $5K. Best offer on Fantastic Comics #9 CGC 7.5 @ $500, start price $500.  And a pair of Jungle Comics #5 and #11. Both are Rockford copies. #5 is CGC 6.5, Cream to Off-White pages; number 11 is CGC 7.5, Best Offer @$500 with a start of $500.

I would have grabbed the Jungle pair at that price if I had seen it.  And $3.50 shipping (hopefully they are boxed).  

That More Fun does not show up when you look at his items and it shows as closing on the same as the ones above.  His feedback as a seller only has 2 posts which are more than a year ago but they are high dollar items.

I messaged him on Jungles he said he had one offer and if I wanted to make an offer he would counter,they were gone before I could make an offer

They went quick I guess.  I never saw them and don't remember them showing on my saved search results as I have Jungle Comics as one of saved searches.  Must have missed it.  The $500 seems like a bargain for two early Rockford Jungles, no?

Bargain yes......shows More Fun 52 went for best offer of 5k all books sold way too cheap smells a little fishy or seller is unaware of the market.

That is what I was thinking but there is a lot of very recent feedback as a buyer and the account sold those two high dollar books some time ago so there is a history of having high end books.  GPA has the books sold quite a while ago ( I think on HA).  Weirdness.

Jungles did not sell for $500. A Rockford Jungle 11 is a $1300-1500 book by itself. I know those and the Fantastic sold for well above the starting $500 bid. 

So scam, Rick?  When you look at the bid history, it shows Best Offer $500 but the listing shows $1300.

I must be reading this incorrectly because when you look at the bids it shows something else.  Look at this link

No, he is a legit seller. The Jungle 11 was my main target.

I think the MF went below market. Granted I do have a dog in the fight. But the reason I would say that points to it being below market value would be the fact that it only stayed in eBay for a really short period of time. I think who ever bought it that quickly also thought they were getting a bargain.  Just my 2c

 I'd have to agree on the MF 52 being a steal of a deal at $14,500...as a 3.0 sold for $30k+ recently...I'd say that book is easily $20K-$25k in value...maybe even in the $30k-$40k range...but obviously this guy is either A. In a huuuuuge (in my best Trumpy voice) hurry to move his stuff....or B. selling on consignment for a flat fees with target prices in place & doesn't care what they sell for after a certain threshold....

....sooooo while I do think his pricing/sales have been WEIRD to say the least....he's apparently a seller to follow if he's wholesaling mega-keys like that/not even waiting to see how they pan out in the auction....
