[Groop] my take on ebay

[John T]

I have to jump into this fray.

 

Auctions set the price. If everything is done fairly then it's fair price. I
just sold an autograph copy of a SHAG book. It sold for $29.99. I was hoping
to get $100.00 for it. I've seen the unautographed book selling for $50-60.
There was some reason mine didn't sell well, timing maybe. 

 

As for bidding, bid what you are willing to pay. That is best advice anyone
can give or get. As Rick and Shawn have said if someone is willing to bid
higher on it then so be it.

*I have no problem with anyone bidding on any item i am bidding on.  If I am
*outbid on an item and it is too much for me, I'll be waiting for the next
*time it is up for auction.  I have been waiting for three years to get my
*hands on another groo the game at a good price.  If I see it there and I
*see Gary or Tone or Shawn the girl bidding on it, I'm going to bid on it

*too if it is in my price range.   Sorry ahead of time, but i'm going to

*bid, and I know Gary will be bidding as well.  Now, if they want to contact
*me through the site and tell me that they are willing to go so high, I have
*no problem backing off once I find out i'm going to be outbid no matter
*what, but let me tell you, that's not going to stop others from keeping on
*bidding.  If a new groo hat would have re-popped up on ebay before I got my
*hands on one a few months ago, my max bid would have been up there and not
*even an email telling me I was going to be outbid would have stopped me
*from bidding on it.

*

*An example.  If a groo dragon leather jacket pops on ebay, I know there's
*going to be 20 or 30 of you licking their chops and I'd probably be willing
*to drop 500 kopins or more on it.  Now, If someone tells me they are going
*to sell me theirs for 500 kopins, I'll gladly not bid on it and buy it from
*a fellow groopie.  Same goes for a groo polo or any of the other rare
*clothing items.
