Nice try. You're NOT supposed to post links to your own auctions in this thread! That's what we have B/S/T for.

Edit: I'm sure you're already replying with a defense-- it didn't take a great detective to figure it out. The "extras" you're offering are the ones in your B/S/T thread.

*DonatelloFan* · 06-29-2012, 07:17 AM

No, no defensive reply. It's my bad. And plus, I'm using the picture of Raphael with his weapons rack that I posted on here in the Playmates thread. But yeah, I'll delete it, not a problem.

***First of Two Latin Kings*** · 06-29-2012, 08:10 AM

If nothing else I'll bid on it at the end because I doubt it will go very high. Anyone can pre-order these figures from different websites.

*mysterycolor* · 06-30-2012, 07:16 AM

posting in the wrong place doesnt make you an idiot... no harm done.

***First of Two Latin Kings*** · 06-30-2012, 09:15 AM

Nobody said he was an idiot. What he tried to pull was actually pretty sly. I saw through it though.

savagejon123 · 06-30-2012, 12:30 PM

Or he truly made an honest mistake lol

*mysterycolor* · 06-30-2012, 12:59 PM

actually- he called himself an idiot (see his revised post) but i think savagejon123 is probably right and it was a mistake.

***First of Two Latin Kings*** · 06-30-2012, 01:13 PM

He would have said it was his if he intended for those reading the thread to know that.

IDW Necra #1 Donatello Sketch

So this is what I was waiting on. I knew that amateur artists would eventually draw on the covers and try to sell them. It's not bad, but I wouldn't buy the issue from the guy for more than a typical Necra issue goes for on eBay (non-sketched). But you have to hand it to him for trying.

***First of Two Latin Kings*** · 07-01-2012, 10:32 AM

The art isn' bad, but if I had one, I'd spend a lot more time on my custom cover before trying to resell it. How much do those usually go for blank?

*DonatelloFan* · 07-01-2012, 10:42 AM

I know someone on here knows more than I do, but I'm sure the normal price for a blank one is maybe $20. Yeah, if you're going to do your own art on an official blank cover to sell, I would make it MUCH more elaborate (especially for the price he's trying to sell it for).

I'd love to have a couple of people on here draw on a cover for me, depending on what they'd charge.

This one just sold for $305.00, allot less than the last one that sold for over $500 that was NIB.

People haven't been buying like they had been (although that might change tomorrow when everyone's ebay bucks become redeemable). Now is really the time to buy and hold.

Prodigy · 07-02-2012, 10:29 AM

I thought it would go for a little less considering the condition of the box was significantly worse. I hoped between $3-400 but was a little surprised it just limped past the $300 mark.

Yep, I was watching that one too. Not too shabby price wise. Wish the box would have been in better condition.

This looks really good!

*Powder* · 07-02-2012, 05:36 PM

Wow, now that is one hell of a custom paintjob. One of the best I've ever seen on the old toys.
