The "OMG the price is high on Ebay, etc!!!" thread

[digitalbabe]

So, we have the "Fake" and "Steelbook Price Drop" thread, but we don't yet have the thread where you post listings with "crazy" prices for Steelbooks. If you see any, post them here and have fun debating. As per forum rules, please remain respectful with each other-one person's "high price", could be another's "deal of a lifetime" score. Enjoy!

Please keep discussion to Ebay and other retailers, not private sellers.

Shill Bidding. 100% bid activity with that seller.

Well they are selling a fair chunk of their collection so I wonder how many of the others they are doing this on too

This is their Thor which just sold

Godfather 1, 2 and 3 Metal slip (Australia - described as Sealed/Mint) sold for just 52. Think this s almost the cost price of these 3.

What do you mean "nobody knows"? If you click on the bidder with (1) feedback in the bid history you can see what sellers' items this guy has been bidding on and in this case he is only bidding on one sellers items. This might happen in real life, but with Adjustment Bureau? This has been available for about 6 quid a million times and can still be bought on amazon for 17...whoever bids 48 or 49 quid on that, is either shill bidding or not the sharpest tool in the steelbox...

Yeah I was making a movie reference.

Not picking on you at all lutzo but its interesting that movie references could be lost in a forum about movies not near the first time it's happened

Too many people collecting movies and not watching them

I won that one, I'm hoping they are mint, as the seller says they are.

Why do you want the link, Raj? Not trying to steal my deal are we?

It's about time I got a bargain from ebay. It was an impulse buy, the metal slips look so amazing in photos, I hope they look even better in hand.

All time high for this Steelbook:

I was watching that one, but when I checked completed listings I couldn't understand why the bidding was going so high, unless shill bidding was involved.

 

[lgans316]

It is easy to assume things. Maybe someone entered 49 instead of 19 or 29? Only the bidder and the seller knows the truth.
