Ebay Collecting Truths

by tarheelsnipe on 06-13-2010 at 03:03 PM
Some generalizations I've learned in my years of buying on Ebay.

by tarheelsnipe on 01-31-2009 at 03:19 PM
I managed to scrape together some more money after my wife decided to do some house cleaning. After selling off some junk we had laying around, I was up to almost $1,100 dollars which was the price range I wanted to spend.

After adding every PSA 9 Jordan to my watch list, I noticed one that was hovering around the $850 mark with 12 hours to go. The only problem was that the seller only had 41 feedbacks. The upside was that they were all positive, and all from buyers. I messaged
