Re: It only took 13 years - not really Ebay Madness

Ebay is weird. One guy sells his Jyhad box for $63, and another for
$46. And the $46 one is cheaper shipping! (by only .55, but still). I
am analyzing it for my own business - for instance, the one that sold
for more, the auction ended on a Saturday, while the lesser one ended on
a Thursday. Hmmmm...

Ack, it boggles the mind.

I have been able to buy 2-3 Jyhad booster boxes on E-Bay for around
$30-$35, no more than a year, a year and a half ago. During that the
time, I saw a few Jyhad boxes being sold for over $50, which means
that such variation is not uncommon, and that a little patience always
pays off when pursuing things on E-Bay.

I was watching the Final Nights box auction from the same seller, but
shied away as soon as it approached $70. It just did not make sense to
go further.

I'm happy for the seller, but people should know when to stop bidding.

Abraço,
