The Technodrome just needs to take a tip from The Simpsons. Pool the money together, and just trade the comic amongst one another every few days.

what also makes me a little annoyed is that the thread advertises the comic is for sale and then it goes to an ebay link.

we should also take advice from the rebelscum boards and not do this. if its for sale, then sell it. rounding up potential bidders by a misleading thread on a collector forum is almost biting the hand that feeds IMO.

but good luck with the auction in any case

Agita · 03-04-2008, 06:10 AM

No one met my reserve ><

I put it up again, no reserve!!!! Good luck

Your price is too high. You'd be better off starting the bidding low and letting the market determine its worth.

Krueger · 03-04-2008, 09:30 AM

Did someone mention the starting price is way too high?

Archon_Turtle · 03-04-2008, 01:01 PM

wow...thats like almost 2000 dollars over the highest price I have ever seen that comic go for...like ever. Ebay n00bz are funny.

A word to the wise..."Very Serious Buyers" are usually not retarded. Jerks maybe...but not retards.

OA · 03-05-2008, 03:26 PM

Well somebody placed a bid! With only 1 feedback I wonder if its shill or not, but I guess we'll see...

Hmmm...well the bidder has only ever bid on straitening irons and hair conditioner. If it isn't shill...then SOMETHING is rotten in denmark. Ebay will bust him if hes shilling his own items. If that account has ever logged into ebay from him computer in the past, ebay will know.

Krueger · 03-06-2008, 07:22 AM

If it is his shill, it could be funny if he just ends up paying fees. I'm sure ebay won't care.

Actually they do. If their systems catches you shilling they automatically freeze your account and make you take a "Why shilling is bad" class before you can conduct any further business from your IP address. If you do it more than once they freeze your account and any account tied to your IP address...THEN a real representative gets involved and determines if ebay is going to take further legal action or not.

Any specific reason you know this?

I'm not mr. turtle there but I know this, because I was bidding on an item that the seller was shill bidding on, and I guess it wasn't the first time, ebay realized it and sent me an e-mail telling me what the seller was doing.
