| Looks like we may not be able to provide a single link to all of our own auctions at this point. So, I you have items in the MCS auction, feel free to piggy back in this thread. I have 11 items and below each photo will be the direct link to that specific item if you are interested, bid early and bid often!  The first is an Alpha Flight #1. It presents at a 9.8, but if you look really, really, diligently, you might see what is referred to in the graders notes "light 1/2" stain bottom left corner back cover", hence the 9.0 grade. Bid it, win it, crack it, send to cgc for higher grade?   Direct Link to Alpha Flight #1 Auction |

| CONTEST! So, look at the 11 comics above, that are up for auction. Post in this thread which one will have the highest bid and give your estimate for what that bid will be. If you guess the correct comic with the highest bid, and your estimated bid is closest to the actual final bid, I will send you a mystery prize. Your guesses must be in and finalized by midnight (Pacific) this Sunday the 10th. All are welcome to place your guess. Even @EbayMafia  |

| @Nearmint67 - Well, if Plasm 0 ends up with the highest bid, you are the winner as no other entrants have emerged. | ||

| @ComicHoarder - Sorry, wouldn't be fair to @Nearmint67, he was in before deadline. Since this is based on the additional criteria of the highest selling comic, as long as you or anyone else chooses any other comic besides Plasm 0, I will extend entry till, Midnight tonight. Again, Plasm 0 is off limits. So, if at the end of the Auction, if Plasm 0 has the highest winning (and paid for) bid, @Nearmint67 is the winner if 10 other people choose, let's say Predator vs Magnus, before midnight tonight and it gets the highest paid bid, then the closest guesser will win the mystery prize. If nobody guesses the correct highest paid bid, then no winner. So, bottom line entry extended until midnight tonight, but new Plasm 0 entries are void in fairness. |

Quote:Originally Posted by Scifinator Well, I don't follow what you mean...I think the Plasm is the only book that'll get over 200....and 245 is a bit low, so I pit it north of 245 at 250. Buy if that doesn't work for you, no biggie. Good luck with the books. |

| @Scifinator I notice there's a whole bunch of CBCS books currently at the top of the "New Listings" section for MCS. Is that you dropping prices late at night? | ||

Scifinator private msg quote post Address this user | |
| @EbayMafia - Yes and no. Yes, many of those (about 200) have been my additions over the past several days. No, they are not price reductions, just the newest batch of comics that I decided to send in to MCS. | ||

| @ComicHoarder - Since the deadline originally ended at Midnight on Sunday, there was only 1 entry. If Plasm is indeed the Highest paid bid, then Nearmint67 wins. If something else is the highest, then Nearmint67 does not win the mystery prize. So, if I extend the deadline, it only penalizes Nearmint67 timely entry if I allow someone else to enter a Plasm bid guess. As such, I am not allowing any other guess for Plasm. But, in effect if Plasm is not the highest paid bid, then nobody will win which is why I extended for 1 more day as long as the guess is not Plasm. tic toc |

| Just a suggestion, I think you may be missing out on a bit of exposure opportunity by listing them so late at night. I don't claim to have it down to a science, but being on the west coast I try not to list anything or lower prices after 9 pm our time. Just trying to maximize the amount of views in the "New Listings" section before they get buried. Listing too late at night cuts out the 75% of the country that has gone to bed. I also don't like to list or reduce price while an MCS auction is going on. I figure people are less likely to buy fixed price listings until they know how much they've spent on the auctions. This is all theory of course, no science or data behind it. | ||

Quote:Originally Posted by Scifinator Bleh. I am still betting Plasm sells for $250 or more. If I win, you may bow ro my market suave, no mystery prize needed   Just breaking your balls, guy... Tbh, I don't see much really even close ri comparable in FMV off the Plasm 0 but you never know....and the Darkhawk may be a surprise, depending on census count & availability...all you need is 2 registry set collectors to turn what would otherwise be a $100 or so slab onto a $300-$600 slab. FWIW, there is also some sort of legit rare variant to that Valiant Vision book or something like that....I vaguely remember Valliantman (sp?) on the CGC forum posting it was a super tough book. May have been a manufacturing error book, tho I kinda wanna say it has a price variant...maybe just super tough in newsstand 9.8. |
