Ebay prices!

Post by cjv »

I have just been watching a few auctions. Is it just me, or are prices going up across the board?

I just saw Unity 2000 #3 sell for $60! Wow.

At these prices, I have given up being able to complete my collection, since I only need the more expensive things now.

Yeah, right now is not a good time to try and get certain issues. I look for more of the later Acclaim issues to rise in price as well. 60 bucks still seems awful high for that one though.

That would certainly be a feat to have all of them back to their peak prices.

What kills me is I bought my #3 about 4 months ago and I got it for around 5 bucks and no one bid against me. Ebay is weird like that if you watch it all the time you can get a real steal.

Somtimes they slip through the cracks and you get a bargain. An Armorines #4 just sold for 100 bucks, but a couple of months ago I think one went off for $20.

I was 'watching' (i.e., was at work when they ended) a few Rai #3 auctions on eBay, not one of them sold for more than $16... and these all ended last night. Could NFL football really have that much effect on eBay auction's ending prices???

:hm:

What other Acclaim/Valiant titles have been going up in value? I have some extra books sitting around that I would not mind unloading.

I think the last Valiant Heroes Special went for around 200.

In the past 6 weeks or so, I have sold 3 Rai #3's, not a one of them "centered" (although they were all at least 9.0) and I got $25 for the cheapest one, and that was a sale to a board member! My eBay auctions, I think $32 was the lowest price...

:wink:
