ANOTHER auction ended early - X-Men #94

[clickhere-migration]

Wow. Another page goes to the wolves. Nice enough though.

 

 

Auction here

[pkveronese]

I heard on comicart-L that the page only went for $6K. That seems really low compared to what it could have brought in had the auction ended normally.

This page from GS X-Men #1 went for $17,250 @ Heritage in February:

 

 

I am not an x-men collector, but at 6K, it would be a great place to start!

 

STEAL!

Somebody paid $17,000 for that? It looks dirty and has tape stains and white-out on it.

X-Men # 94 Page 26

 

Not the 1st time I have seen this.

[jjeanius]

Yep, that's crappy.

[jjeanius]

At least it's nice to know that it went to a good home and not to someone just trying to flip it for a buck....

[pkveronese]

Yeah - I notice he has the Miracleman #13 cover that mysteriously ended early as well. Incidences like this would definitely deter me from dealing with him.

[jjeanius]

well, at least he's a very humble person whose site name doesn't imply the least bit of arrogance.

Hehehe....I can hear Tina Turner singing now..... (or is that Ike yelling?)

[Bronty]

Look at the items he lists as stolen from him... I think I'd shizz a brick....

Mark is a friend of mine and one of the good guys in the hobby. He's willing to deal and his word actually means something. I spoke with him last night and got the full 411 on the X-Men #94 page deal. Before people sling stones and arrows at him for getting the seller to end the auction early, they should know that the seller received numerous offers from others to do the same, including from some of the very people on this Board. No wonder the silence has been deafening - getting sellers to end auctions early is practically standard operating procedure for nice pieces on eBay these days.

 

On a similar note, an auction for a piece I really wanted was ended early yesterday on eBay. I thought this piece was under the radar enough where the seller would actually play by the rules and go through with the auction. Silly me. My new policy? If any piece I really want shows up on eBay, I'm going straight to the source and offering the seller "bags of cash" to end an auction early. That's simply the reality of the market these days.

I'm just saying, I don't know the guy, but from stuff like this, I would be quite reticent to deal with him.

I like that better than the art on the page.

Same here.
