An interesting philisophical question... would even Wizard be foolish enough to use their own price guide?

Mmmm....I'm SOOOOOO glad Wizard sold all their 1/2 variants earlier this year for 99 cents opening bid for 10 packs. Yay. ;)

I bought about 3K of 'em. :)

They got tired of getting 30 cents to $2 a book for them, I guess, but hey....guys....welcome to the market....the market YOU CREATED! MWAH HA HA HA HA HA HA HAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!

Shoulda bought it when it was not selling for $10 or w/e it was. Piece of history or not it's a POS.

I find this heading within the auction description most confusing.
Amazing Spiderman Vol.2 # 25 , Foil Valiant, CGC 9.8

Sold by a board member ~ brought by a board member ME.
yes its $32, did I want it ~ Yes. Is it relevant to Valiant ?? I think so.
I also think it is very funny! Which is the main reason I brought it.
Someone printed a comic without the rights to the charactors, which was also a company? that tried to scam a legitimite company from there rights to those charactors.

To me it is just a spoof issue.

Will they sell for 50 cent next week? I don't think so. If they do I will by another.

I don't have to justify my spending, even though I am.

On the brighter side ~ at least you have someone to target as 'not a true valiant fan' and poke fun at.

2 months ago anyone could have had one for about half that. Just because DNV has full control now it's a piece of history. :roll: Still a piece of *SQUEE* to me. :P

This auction made me laaaaaauuugh and laaaaauuugh and laaaauuuugh....

This line especially:

"DO NOT BID IF YOU WANT TO PAY LESS THAN 175$

I AM SURE YOU ARE AWARE OF THE VALUE OF THESE COMIC BOOKS, THERE IS A OVERSTREET PRICE GUIDE OUT THERE FOR YOU TO TAKE A LOOK IN"

It's sad, how many people either are very greedy, or simply have no damn clue about the realities of the comic book market.

Sad and pathetic.

$2+ PER BOOK for books that MIGHT be VF condition....

"Don't bid if you want to pay less than $175!"

My answer: DON'T START THE DAMN AUCTION FOR LESS THAN $175 THEN! Dumbass.

Notice...this auction has ALREADY gone around at least ONCE. :lol: :lol: :lol:

It's such a shame that people like Vikescomics sell on eBay. :(

I loved his latest feedback, though....

"COMICS EN BUEN ESTADO, MALA COMUNICACION Y TARDA MUCHISIMO EN EL ENVIO."

My rusty spanish translates that as "the comics are in good condition (state), bad communication and very late to send."

:lol: :thumb:

Vikescomics can kiss the fattest, whitest part of my *SQUEE*.

I have never done business with the guy, but I've seen enough.
