I'm sure he'll at least get some offers but not sure how many will be serious ones (more than half his BIN).  I can't remember how many times ebay will let you relist (and credit you for the listing fees) so there's another possible cost to factor in.

1st time is the only time.

i think if they listed it for about $4k with a BIN on it of around $5500, i think they might have some interest.

if it was for $4k i prb would have thought about it myself.

ps. personally i think they would have done much better by listing them in small lots of by selling individually.

No doubt this would be better for them but it seems like they don't want to do the work to do that.  Even if they broke it into 20 lots divided by campaign setting the a shrink lot and used lot, etc they would do better.  But that is a lot more organizing and pictures, etc.

Well, it's back online after not selling:

I spoke to the seller, he says he really needs to get $1400.00 for it... sorry just can't go there. I think I offered him more than anyone else might have, but I won't go $1250.00 either



nice copy, small ding here and there, but I bought one similar for $880, and have 2 others not as nice... but I think he's a bit high for sure.

Wonder why he won't budge off the reserve?  You would think that he would understand that a price like that is most likely unattainable with the global economy still in shambles.  Nice copy though.

Heh, heh... exactly as expected that they're comparing with the $1400 sale. And possibly in better condition, too.

Was that a private purchase at $880?

I'll have another scan around later, but the two recent purchases around that amount ($836 Jan '09, $961 Aug '08 ) both had badly buckled folders.

If I were him with that good a copy, I think $1250 would be pretty close to bottom line: certainly no huge discount over that, knowing how rare /really/ good folders are. If there was no "need" to sell, that would go straight back on the shelf, otherwise...



JM02c, anyhow,

There's a King's Festival and a Queen's Harvest in there

the most modules missing staples comments really throws the potential value of this collection. They at least need to mark which ones have had the staples removed

Did anyone ask him yet what the minimum bid offer he was looking for? I think it's a big gamble unless you're up there in Portland to get an inspection of the goods.

3 offers (declined) from buyer with 20200 feedback - is that Cougar?

nods..

i am thinking though that the seller really doesnt want to come down lower than maybe $6k.

its not excessive to ask for that i guess, but the stuff would need a serious looking over to justify it though.
