theres a guy on ebay selling his collection starting at 50 thousand does he really expect people to by that much for toys. i would kinda understand someone going to botcon as a dealer but not a regular person G1 TRANSFORMERS collection 200+ MISB MIB MOSC MOC lot - eBay (item 120431785494 end time Jun-14-09 19:37:17 PDT)
Someone please explain to me why this person doesn't have a detailed slideshow gallery of all the items in their $50G auction listing. Can't afford it?
Please check this:http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/items-sale-trade/215681-entire-g1-collection-mib-misb-moc-mosc-60k-obo.html Personally, I don't think it's worthy the $50000 price tag. Even the famous million $$ auction only sold for $50000(1 bidder), and most people on this forum still think it was overpriced. Also, that million $$ auction had some of the nicest boxes I've ever seen. I still don't understand why gestalts_vault insist on selling everything in one big lot.
That guy for a while was trying to sell on this board but it never got anywhere. And yeah, it's not worth that price.
Thats not even close to 50 Grand. There isnt that much MISB in this collection to Garner 50K. Did'nt the million dollar auction contain all MISB Transformers and only go for 50K? If I recall correctly that collection had doubles and triples of each figure and were all MINT. This collection looks like a jumble of trash. It does not look to be stored properly to be worth 50K IMO.
To the seller, maybe - the buyer just spent $30,000 on freakin' TOYS that aren't worth nearly that much. No congrats deserved for that.
Ditto. Maybe, maybe if they were MISB and I mean MINT they may be worth $30,000. But MIB ??? What was that bidder thinking.
The recession has not impacted this guy. wow, that is a lot of money but I wonder who brought it? For someone like me, 30k looks like a Camaro, 3 series BMW, ETC... maybe it was some rock star or doctor?
They are worth $30,000 to the buyer, so that's all that matters! People who don't have $30 Gs to spend, shouldn't hate on those that can.
I could come up with 30 grand if I wanted, but I'll be damned if I'd spend it on overpriced toys. Congrats to the seller for finding a mark with more money than brains, though.
Sure you can .....how many KOs can you buy with $30,000? Congrats to the buyer, for not being a jealous, broke-ass collector!
