Christmas Bargain's?, by Daniel Silk on Dec 20, 2007 15:47:11 GMT 1, I was trying to think back to this time last year  and wondering if its worth keeping an extra close eye on bits and pieces on ebay. I have missed out on so many great print this year, so am hoping that with everyones busy opening their presents they might forget to watch ebay 
Can anyone remember what ebay's like of Christmas?

Christmas Bargain's?, by angryboy on Dec 20, 2007 15:56:10 GMT 1, I was wondering the same thing today but from a selling point of view. Have four Faile I want to get rid of to purchase a more expensive Faile and, obviously, want to maximise what I get for them.

I think people had spent out at the Ghetto in London last year, so things leveled off until the next pay day came around

Whack them on here with what you're asking for and see if any forum members could give you a fair price.

When the time comes I'll stick a post on here too. They're (only) POW prints but they're the 4 set from POW and I've not seen a complete set on ebay before and individually they've gone for anywhere between ยฃ375 and ยฃ800 depending on which one it was.

Christmas Bargain's?, by afroken on Dec 21, 2007 22:17:23 GMT 1, eBay used to be a client of the place where I work. They experience a phenomenon that they call internally the Christmas cliff. Basically, after around the 14th December, buyer activity drops about 80% as people don't think they'll get things delivered in time. They invest huge amounts of marketing budget trying to push the cliff closer and closer to Christmas. Every day of sales counts after all. Up until the time I stopped being involved they were failing to achieve this, but that was a couple of years ago. Anyway, that's why bargains are to be had around now!
