$5,555.00


I guess i can't predict for crap - I had guessed about $700 - 800.
This is just ignorance as Hippie said.


My word, the book isn't even that special... really the only thing worth a lot would be the sigs and right now they seem to be worth at least a couple hundred from the right devs. Assuming it was a book you are talking about.





I have seen people post that there were only 40 in the warehouse as we discovered on here (so those ones on there are mostly all from members here), also it seems no one wants to update the info to what i found out recently

But I just sold my kidney to buy that book......

Surely it's worth the 5 grand I bid on it

NOT

lol great case of people being dumb

Problem is all the other signed copies are going to come out of the woodwork and sell for crazy amounts now, not 5K but far more than anything rational

If mine wasn't a gift I would sell it... that is my stance on the book.

If I bought it I would have been upset when i received it considering its size... when I saw it on the website i assumed a regular sized notebook, not a pocket sized notebook.

lol you remember that listing I linked you

A gaming journalist valued that book at 30 bucks and sold it at that

Rare sure worth original cost, no worth what it sells for now hell no

Honestly maybe I won't collect Bioshock if this is where it's collectibles are heading

I do hope the seller of that book knows the buyer will never pay that for it... there is no way.

But even so it will help set a precedent for price... stupid.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Autographed-...61196765908%26


If i had to bet, i would say it is someones shell account trying to make the price high overall for his own auction.

I had this happen with my Ezio Statue... the buyer never paid and all his feedback is "buyer did not pay"... yet he had perfect feedback so these people aren't punished.

yeah , high bidder has a "2" feedback, time to not pay and cancel the account. Had that happen to me when I sold stuff, 1 or 2 or 3 feedback and they almost never pay. if he pays the seller hit a collectors grand slam

I would bet my book he wont pay, I bet it is a shill account (not the sellers BTW, I think it must be another seller).

I can confirm the buyer has actually paid the winning amount. I've been in direct contact with the seller and he's shown proof. The question at this point is... how rich/crazy is this guy and will he potentially try to scam the seller by doing a chargeback with the CC company.
