eBay and its pricing...

The winning bid was that much...really?

I'm always willing to pay good money on eBay for a good CGC 9.6 or 9.8 comic to add to my collection and most of the time I do find great deals. But lately on eBay people have been going crazy on bidding and on offer prices, way beyond what the comic is valued at times. I guess I understand the need to get that gem of a comic and add it to your collection. It just seems some of the prices are just not based in reality like starting at 12k for a Green Lantern #76 CGC 9.6 or just recently X-men #120 CGC 9.8 went for over 1k on the winning bid...really? I'm sure you all went though the same ordeal thinking you have the winning bid of $20 and end up losing to a bid of $200 in the last 5 seconds of the auction (just happened to me). The comic was NOT worth that much, but I guess you cant really put a value on something you need and love to collect.

Just venting...since I really wanted those comics :-(
