batmiesta Posted March 25, 2021 Share Posted March 25, 2021 (edited) A Giant size FF#2 in 9.6 went for $1211 when there is one on ebay for $279 ? And a one for $245 ?

InfantTerrible Posted March 25, 2021 Share Posted March 25, 2021 Is ComicLink reliable/legit? ....because their site is pretty archaic, outdated, like from the 90s. Their account registration form is so old school Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their account registration form is so old school Well, there's a very simple and logical reason for this. If you check their Home Page, it states that they started up their business in 1996 and they have had absolutely no reason at all to update their website. Especially with all of the ongoing complaints from everybody about the ComicConnect website after their massive website upgrade last year and which has most likely resulted in far fewer potential customers going to their website since they probably just hate change of any kind.

I just wish they could provide larger scans for both front and back cover more easily. silverseeker, bpc3qh and InfantTerrible 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buzzetta Posted March 25, 2021 Author Share Posted March 25, 2021 I am trying to drive up bidding on something over on ComicConnect as high as possible so I can see where everyone is to determine whether or not I want to pursue it or cut my losses early and bid on the thing I want second most in Comiclink. I have a feeling I am walking away completely empty handed but keeping my fingers crossed. PKJ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty much ...Something that normally goes for "x" has been bid up to 1.5x by me because, I am fighting over it. If it goes to 2.5x I am probably out and that's that.

Popular Post joeypost Posted March 25, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted March 25, 2021 Looks like 1.5 guide is the jumping off point these days.

Someone please explain this idiocy to me. At least two people "think" it may have upgrade potential. I did the same thing with a book I was outbid on last week, only I didn't go to eBay, I simply went to ComicLinks exchange and found the same book with better page quality for $234.00 less. greggy, silverseeker and piper 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

InfantTerrible Posted March 25, 2021 Share Posted March 25, 2021 What price guide site do you guys use? I use GoCollect, and ComicLink auction results pretty much destroyed the prices over there for a good 20-40% Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
