I quit cigarettes cold in 2007, the day my son was born.

That's always a great reason. I quit a few months after getting off active duty in 2014.

Quit smoking a little over a year ago. I still get cravings sometime.

I have "quit" smoking several times over the years.
The last time was April 2015. I also miss them every day.
I consider myself to be in recovery from my tobacco addiction, much like alcoholism.
It's not something that just goes away, it's with you for the rest of your life.

@kaptainmyke
Congrats on your big score.
Now here's a towel, go clean yourself up.

Wow good choice! Second chance imo

Thanks to all. I got them for a steal. $110 each is like I literally robbed them blind. In their eyes!

What does something like this go for?

@Cmonman That's a one of a kind item being sold by Kevin Eastman himself (his eBay account) so when the final bid comes in, that's what it went for.

@DarthLego is right. With items like this from the creators themselves there is no market or competing pricepoint to go on. I buy one-off or one-of-a-kind items from Kevin and Peter all the time, and consistently I create the market price.

Sometimes, I admittedly bid extremely high to create a market wedge so I can control the price when I am ready to sell. This just isn't Turtles I'm talking about either.

I think it will go for $585-$650. It's a 3 day auction that ends on a Wednesday at 7am for west coast people.

They didn't think out the times right for maximum bidders imo

I guess what I meant was how do you decide what to bid on an item like this?

I don't. I am usually bidding the last second personally because I have the time on my hands. But at 7:30 AM frankly I am asleep I'm on the West Coast and we wake up late.

Ok - I see a comic that I'm looking for to finish a run. Seller has it listed at $50 buy it now or best offer. It's a nice copy, so I figure I'd shoot him an offer. I offer him $40. He countered with $49. Really??? A whole whopping dollar is what you're willing to go down? Why bother with the Best Offer option??? SMH

I'm thinking I might counter with $41!!!

I once made a decent offer on Comic Connect for a book I wanted.

The seller responded with a price higher than he was initially asking.

I laughed and moved on.

Plenty sellers will only drop the price one dollar when you make them an offer. Happens to me quite often.

@Jesse_O Ugh, I hate that! It's like, why even bother with the Best Offer option if you're basically looking to get the BIN price?

I usually aim to get 15%-20% off the BIN price when I use Best Offers. When the seller's just screwing around like that, I usually just decline and look elsewhere.

If anything, you should counter with $39

lol, once I think I flatout offended a seller with my initial lowball offer that instead of countering he just banned me from his listings
