If everyone is broke right now, the 1st woodie will probably go unsold. If we all had tons of cash, it would probably top $3K.This is why I proposed that everyone submit personal values. It becomes a true benchmark based on the real collectors in the industry, not the Creeps.

(Doesn't have to be in an "auction" format). Tell me the price and the grade and give confirmation from the buyer & seller. This has been mentioned several times before by both me and darkseraphim. Not one person has volunteered any data thus far . . .

I finally did a chargeback through my credit card since paypal wouldn't do anything. I don't know how he could still have an account on ebay after all the negs. He screwed a lot of people.
