So how about a thread to discuss unusual, unexpected, and/or outrageous auction results BEFORE they are over?

IMHO no one should discuss an auction AFTER it's over - it's too late to spoil the auction and keep people from getting good auction deals!

So who has a great item currently going cheap someone wants to "out"?

This looks like a pretty good deal.  He has enough of them for most of us as well.  Plenty of time left also so we can take our time to decide.

The seller even assures us we "will enjoy years of pleasure from this high quality print" 

I wonder what this print actually does?!

Must come with a mouth and hands...

I think we should already rename this thread to BRUCE AND DAVE BACK PATTING AND FREE ADVERTISING.

Like you both, but honestly I have never "seen" two people better at talking about themselves; cant argue with the results though!

Let me try...

I heard this guy sells dirt cheap newer releases and has hundred of titles not posted. Just send them a mail and inquire about his inventory.

"Come on, Bruce...why..."

It was a joke, son. I guess a poor one. Does it make any sense I would attempt to promote my auctions this way?

Please delete the entire thread.

Sarcasm on the internet is like winking on the phone; it almost never works.

I find use of the winky helps. There are two options:  Wink and the more elobarate  wynk  they can make all the difference.

I've pinned it!  Holy shit, people, get a sense of humor!

If people want to talk about auctions after they're done, that's fine.  If they want to talk about them before they're done, that's fine too.  What's really funny is that I get accused of censorship, but the effort to shut down discussion of current auctions is NOTHING BUT DISGUISED CENSORSHIP!

So, we have a POST auction thread and  MID auction thread.  That should settle the debate.

Is this about the email earlier? Are you on ecstasy at the moment? Or are you seriously saying you think a courtesy shown others has anything remotely to do with "censorship"?

I think either your motives are just to have me on with Rich, Holiday or your actually thicker than Andy after all.

What's Thierry's view. Lets get some actual IQ involved in the discussion.  Smiley

As I've said many times, it's not me, Rich. The same has been expressed by Ben, Chad, Schan, Chris, Brude, myself, Neo, Dale, Jeannie (in a seperate thread) and others all explaining they'd prefer to wait a couple of days to post an auction. The question is why not wait a couple days to discuss? Why is it so pressing?

again Carson.. you don't get it and you haven't come up with any valid reasoning other than "other people agree with me". If we were jurors, your inability to get me to change my mind with well reasoned arguments in a debate would have us deadlocked for days on end.

How's this for a question: what makes you fear a fair fight with another bidder so much that would rather have a non-level playing field to achieve your personal goals?

The point is it's a majority and listening to what that majority of the forum would like. And they've made it expressly clear most would rather wait a couple of days.

I don't have a fear other bidders, Rich. As has been said countless times, the issue is simply, one after another, collectors have expressed they'd rather wait a coupe days and not have to pay an extra dollar because Mel is bored and wants to discuss a poster for three minutes.

majority of the forum??  5-6 members is a majority? since when did we only have 10 total members on the forum?? You just mean 5-6 of the members whose names we see don't you?
I think we've seen way more than 10 different members posting, so I don't know how you achieve a comment like "majority of the forum" from just a few members

Do you count l u r k e r s who are members but never post or only post ocassionally?

how do you count non-members who lurk? are they just half a member like blacks were only half a person in the 1800s??

are you just counting the number of people who posted maybe within a stretch of 4 pages in a single thread? Okay.. that's a majority and no one else matters....

We'll take the survey/poll tomorrow.
My arguing with a single guy in his mid 50s from his comic book office has been one of my least points to date so I'll wrap it up. I believe the survey tomorrow will speak for itself.
Rich, you're a blow hard by design. You can't help it. We'll talk a bit later. Night for now.

I guess we all have our own pet peeves, I for one HATE movie spoilers, I wont read reviews until after Ive seen a movie, I don’t read the backs of books (and I read a lot). I do understand why people don’t like others outing an auction, its obvious, they want less bidders, I do not understand why it shouldn’t be allowed, or done.
The would be bidder, who is upset, is upset because they might pay more money.
There is also a seller/owner/consigner – who might make more money,
So the only reason is I WANTED THAT ITEM FOR LESS THAN IF OTHER PEOPLE KNEW ABOUT IT.
Big deal
