The Collector's Trove eBay Auctions

And it has begun. Paul's auctions always have very interesting items. I mean look at a few of those items. TSR Memos, home campaigns, manuscripts...

[Gonzoron of the FoS]

Ok, yeah... I can officially call that Too Rich For My Blood. Any of here the lucky winner who paid $51 for a scrap of fabric? (I kid, because I wish it were me... )

[Joël of the FoS]

Oh I forgot about that... No, I wouldn't have gotten this high for the patch

Check out the prices for some of the other items from that auction They sold memos from TSR for $100+ I hope some of the info on them will make it to the internet...

[The Giamarga]

So, did catmanjim win it?

[Gonzoron of the FoS]

So, did catmanjim win it?

He's got one already, so if so, that's just greedy.

[Catman Jim]

No, it wasn't me.

I did pick up two of the old TSR/Dragonlance Calendars from this auction.

[The Giamarga]

Gaz V for $19 on ebay.

Btw I still have a spare gaz iv myself... So anyone in Europe need one with small postage pm me!

[Zilfer]

Would love to grab that one for myself since it covers domains that are only fuzzy in the back of my mind, also I have 1-3 and want to complete it. Looks like my best shot but 6 days left on auction... no buy now option probably because the person wants to get a nice price so I'm up to 25$ already and i'm not sure how I am willing to go.

If I don't win that I'd be interested but I'm in the US so i don't know how that works. *shrugs*

Whenever I've ordered from Europe I have never had any complaints about the delivery. And I don't recall it being all that expensive to ship. Altho I think I got my deliveries from the UK. Giamarga is in Italy, I think. Don't know the shipping costs from there.

Are those your bids on the auction?

If you want the best price on an auction you should wait as long as possible and then only bid once, the highest you are willing to go for it.

Typically you should aim for there to be less than 10 seconds in the auction before bidding.

This prevents bidding wars from occurring, if another person does not bid their maximum right away and only bids enough to be winning then you can get it cheaper than encouraging them to keep bidding by bidding yourself.

It also makes the auction seem less valuable since there are less people bidding on it.

Good luck with the auction.

[Zilfer]

Thanks, yeah I've heard that unfortunately I don't have time to be on 24/7 to do it the last bit of the auction so I'll probably forget about it before the end. Thanks for the tips though.

[The Giamarga]

Sniping is just one way to bid. Fire and forget is also ok and less of a hassle... Or use an auction sniper service. In the end just bid your max and then forget about it lest bidding frenzy sets in.

I'm in Germany btw. Postage costs are not that high and you can pay by PayPal. I'll make you a good price for Gaz IV .

Or you could bid on this eBay auction of Gaz III & IV which is quite a deal so far.

[Zilfer]

I would definately most likely be interested in that Gaz IV depending on the price. xD Looking up what domains it goes over right now.

Lol i'm forgetting what domains are covered in V.... oh i remember one. Nova Vassa. But yes if you have IV that's one of the ones i'm missing. I currently have 1-3.

[The Giamarga]

Zilfer, my Gaz IV auction didn't sell for $30 plus shipping ($10 unfortunately as it's a heavy book).

So I'll offer it to you for $ 35 incl. postage. Which is a good price... PM me if you want it.

Also Gaz I new for $9 on half.com and lot of 13 Ravenloft novels for $10 (so far) on ebay.com
