Edit: confused seller, probably not on crack

Not sure this counts but https://www.ebay.com/itm/362966043402" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

His order screenshot shows it's the single set which isn't the Holo deck (unless the Holo decks say the same in the order email?), but description say Holo. Seller might be on crack

So let me get this straight: he's showing a screenshot of the order for $15 and he's asking for $75 .. ?

That's what it seems like to me. Someone please tell me I'm wrong though and the Holo email says Single Set too..?

Yeah, confirmed. Steer clear of this auction that says Holo in the description.

Looked at the listing ... lol wat

I went ahead and messaged that seller as well to explain why they should consider removing or modifying the auction if they're uncertain. I explained they're going to have a pissed off buyer shipping them a deck back if they buy it thinking it's the holo version.

Yep, told him the same as well a few hours ago. Not sure he can change the description once bidding has started though. Edited my post too. Seller probably not on crack, just confused

Indeed a crack head. Sells items he doesn't own yet and the punch line is that he isn't even sure himself what he is selling. "I'm new to this card stuff" ... what a f***ing loser.

That hypebeast piece of **** isn't even smart enough to censor his name and adress...

Being a crackhead is fine but the dude ain't even doing research.

So, more of a pothead?

Potheads do more research than crackheads. That's one of the reasons they are potheads instead of crackheads !

Nah the dude's prolly on Oxys or Fentys. Speeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeed.

Love me some cyanide & hapiness but you can't tell me that this isn't a ripoff of Pikachu on acid .

Dude I forgot all about that one, real nostalgia right there!

Hue hue hue, I know my top notch entertainment .

This listing gave me a pretty good chuckle. Asking 10,000 for the lot and the decks that are in the only picture are Zebra King Slayers, Nocs, Virtuoso FW17 ...

xraygirl is the new acebear?

$1,000 for literally paper waste is nice as well.

Ehm... Wait, what?

Hey, don't knock hayn-noa 's collection ok, he's got Davis Blaine decks in his collection! That's even rarer than David Blaine!

I love how Ebay also shows at the top, similar auctions of the same decks. $10 shipped for xraygirl's deck, but that's not the same as the deck that was bought by her uncle who actually served there. So gotta factor in sentimental value..... and the influence of crack....gotta be that.

Ah, magacin was not channeling Acebear properly or else he'll know that only true collectors will know that it's the holy grail for PIATNIK collectors and he's going by Hochman's, which everyone knows gives the true value for any deck out there, screw the condition!

I'm sure rcbros920-0 made a typo. It's gotta be $5.00 and not $500 for the 130 yr Bicycle anniversary deck. Other auctions right on top show you can get the red one for $7 shipped. Yeah, must be.... all that crack.... making him type the wrong number. Yup.

Not one but TWO dented corners, for only $900

aaand reported for keyword abuse. Thanks STL for letting me know that this is an option .

I really dont understand how you can start an auction listing at EUR265/$299US and also have a reserve not met at that price.

To each their own I guess, but it def falls in this thread as a crack listing.

Meanwhile there's a brand new crypt deck for $240 buy it now

You definitely get your money worths with this one

Well, maybe not. However, it does come with a nice briefcase (does anyone still use a briefcase? I'm almost as old as dirt and I don't). It should be noted that there is a Sanctus in there. Still...it does seem a bit much.

On crack? I don't know. You decide!

Based on their other auctions and the fact that they relisted at $500, it looks super shady. Might be a placeholder for a purchase of something else.

Some true A-grade dirty crack here:

Venexiana Gold 650USD - https://www.ebay.com/itm/114341234072

Ok that's bad, but could be a mistake, not quite insanity, then this:

Damask Pair 975USD - www.ebay.com/itm/114341198553

Whew, wow, how did this rehab patient buy this decks in the first place? But there's more:

Liturgy Black Bronze 450USD - www.ebay.com/itm/114341229595

These things go for 80USD... I just can't with this, it's too much. They have some really rare stuff, but almost everything is priced way above market and worth, and some are truly indicative of mental decline plus zero research.

Those are mine. You can't just take the Buy It Now price and harp on it without mentioning the starting bid price, lol. Follow me now:

1. Venexiana Gold: I've started it at $500, free shipping in the US. That's a good bit less than I paid for it, and less than the last 3-4 have sold for on eBay -- two of which sold for ~$650.

2. DAMASK Set: That was a starting bid of $750, free shipping in the US, with a Carat X2. Blue DAMASK is the one deck people have bugged me the most about. I've received offers that I declined previously, which easily merited the starting bid for the set. $975 was the, "if you REALLY want this, here's your chance; otherwise, bid it out" price. It's gone now, though, so it doesn't matter.

3. Liturgy Black Bronze V1 (Misaligned): Same story with this deck as the previous deck insofar as inquiries and offers, as well as the ridiculously high Buy It Now in the event that someone REALLY, REALLY wants it above all others. As for $80 (via eBay?), you're surely thinking about the V2. The V1 has shown up much less frequently than Liturgy Treasure despite being of equal rarity (slightly more, even), and has been selling for a premium for quite awhile now. Recall, if you will, Sheng's auction where he was selling the entire set for ~$650. Before he sold it, I offered him ~$275 for just the V1 at the time, which he declined. I had no luck procuring one before then (and it took me quite awhile still). He ended up getting his asking price for the set (I wasn't the buyer). None of that is to say that someone HASN'T ended up with that deck for less than $275 (especially through UC), but, again, I'm gauging market interest here based on numerous metrics.

I've sold and traded my fair share of decks for significantly lower amounts and good deals. These auctions are about recouping some small portion of what I've put into the hobby, all while putting some amazing decks in the collections of those who value them accordingly. You'll also notice I started quite a few of the other decks I've listed at lower prices than they've sold for in recent times. There's an overall dollar amount I'd like to secure, so I've distributed the prices across all decks to meet that bar. Some come in a bit higher, and others a bit lower. The market will decide what's what.

Based on all the data I've crunched from having watched the market like a hawk for the past year, the offers I've received for various decks up to this point, and what I, myself, have been willing to pay for various decks, there's much more to my "mental decline plus zero research" than seemingly meets the eye for you. I don't expect this does much to dampen your opinion of the eBay crack market, but it is what it is and I figured I'd once again offer some additional insight as I did the last time in this thread where my auctions are concerned.

I am going to put my Golden oath Blue up for 10k just to watch people on here cry. Oh and the Damask set sold in like 3min. You calling people insane and rehab patients for prices you dont agree with is like me calling you to poor to buy the decks and you are bitter. Your post sounds like you are a 12 year old pissed about fortnite

For normal people "on crack" means out of proportion. For our Aussie friend it simply means he doesn't agree with the pricing.
Be kind to him, he's an Oath capacity and therefore a bit sensitive when it comes to Lotrék's decks.
