Quote:Originally Posted by JWKyle Someone overpaid for the X-Force 11 9.8 book during the Comic Link auction last night. It went for 120.00 + 3% (if paying by credit card) and the shipping cost. There was a copy on eBay that shipped for free and was priced $13.00 cheaper. Also, there were a couple of Buy It Now/Make Offer books too. I guess someone got caught up in the moment. |

I agree 100 fold auction buying is the best way to land books at close to market or below there is. With all the good auction houses that's where I get most of my higher end stuff. Just be patient and most stuff shows up sooner or later. I usually turn to ebay when I'm bottom feeding or shopping on the cheap.
 I had no way of knowing that 9.8 graded copies signed by Adam Hughes weren't what you were looking for.

| Generally at auction you seem to have a chance to either get a steal or get caught up in the moment... I'm waiting for my next auction right now... | ||

| I've made many offers on ebay on books without the best offer feature and have been successful in negotiating a price that the seller and I could live with. Usually, the seller will simply change the BIN price and I'll have to check out before someone else does. Don't knock it until you try it! | ||

Quote:Originally Posted by dpiercy Yes, that was the buyers response when I told him that not only was his offer too low but that I had raised the price on the book. Needless to say we were unable to reach an agreement on a fair price for the book. |
