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! :scat:

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

You tell me? :hilarious: I can only show my observations why these steels are stupidly inflated. If you look at all the auctions SBD is inflating everyone of them for whatever reason it is - it makes no logical sense.

Maybe he already has 20 copies and inflating every one of them to high prices so he can sell them at the 'mark up' from the previous wins to give buyers the false representation that it the on going 'market' rate.

All I can say is, 'bids' are not everything and doesn't always show the true value of a steel.

Inflate them high and sell them high :) :naughty::naughty::naughty:

I noticed every steel he has bidded on - Thors, CA, T4, JR all UK are all steels he has multiple copies on.

It's obvious what he is doing.

Unfortunately ebay is like that and this cannot be stopped.

Just mental. At these price points he's going to be hit hard by Ebay and Paypal fees for anything he sells.

Add to that the possibility of dishonest sellers that he's buying off in terms of accurate descriptions of the steelbooks that he's buying.

You said before when you have the power to do that the legal way (if the reason he is doing it is this) then no body should complain...

now let me think do you contradict yourself here sunnyx?

p.s i personally do not care what SBD is doing its his business, its just a general comment to the nosiness of people

No idea what your on about....

Edit: I take it your not complaining about SBD as he did bid £90.50 on your CA steel which you gladly welcomed didn't you :)
