Micallef Ebay resale numbers, by ray on Sept 21, 2007 5:25:19 GMT 1, It's late, I'm bored, and I'm playing around on the Bay gathering useless information and thought I'd share it before the meds kick in.
From the four prints released for the LA show:
69 (edit from 50) currently for sale on Ebay.
39 sold on Ebay.
Highest price out of the four: 2800 pounds for Uzi Lover 1
Lowest price out of the four: 1550 pounds for Uzi Lover 2
Peacekeeper highest price paid: 2350 pounds
Peacekeeper lowest price paid: 1650 pounds
Minortaur highest price paid: 2250 pounds
Minortaur lowest price paid: 1750 pounds
Uzi1 Highest paid 2800 pounds
Uzi1 lowest paid 1600 pounds (to whoever bought it for 2800, DOH!)
Uzi2 Highest paid 2375 pounds
Uzi2 Lowest paid 1500 pounds
Moral of the story? Brush your teeth before bed.
Goodnight.

Micallef Ebay resale numbers, by rob123rob on Sept 21, 2007 5:27:14 GMT 1, I saw someone has a set of four prints for 11,000 pounds. Not bad for 8 hours work.

Micallef Ebay resale numbers, by ray on Sept 21, 2007 5:36:25 GMT 1, If it sells.....I don't think it has a snowballs chance myself. I think that makes around 5% of the total release on ebay so far. I'm guessing that's going to go up in the next week or two?

Micallef Ebay resale numbers, by ray on Sept 21, 2007 5:58:43 GMT 1, Ha!
Try taking what this guy's on. He paid 1378 pounds for Peacekeeper on a T-Shirt, and he went against 2 other bidders to get it lol. You think he's going to be suprised when he gets his peacekeeper on a T-shirt in the mail instead of in a tube?
Item number: 300153259025

Micallef Ebay resale numbers, by verbalkint on Sept 21, 2007 7:20:00 GMT 1, why did you report it to ebay? the seller didnt technically do anything wrong. He would be a p*ick to accept the payment as he cannot seriously believe that someone would bid that much for a t shirt, but why report it to ebay ray? seriously man the way i see it, the bidder is a dumb fuck and they dont deserve your help, if they are stupid enough to bid on an auction with out reading it (and if you read it, even just once very quickly it is blatantly obvious what is for sale) then you are asking for trouble
If you look under mobile phones you will see people selling dummy display phones, they are clearly marked in big flashing letters (small phone dealers buy them to display) and people bid stupid amounts, get their dummy phone than leave a negative feedback as if its the sellers fault!
if you dont read the auction you deserve to get shafted. Its like someone coming up to you in the street, giving you loads of small print and saying 'sign here' and you just doing it, then complaining when they take £1300 out of your account and send you a wank t shirt!

Micallef Ebay resale numbers, by ray on Sept 21, 2007 7:27:12 GMT 1, You know why? I also collect coins and see this crap all the time but the straw that broke the camels back was where he listed it. It's under limited edition prints, art. That's not where you sell t-shirts on ebay.
Yea, the guy was stupid for not reading the entire listing but maybe he was new to ebay, who knows. Maybe he saved his money for 6 months to buy this, who knows.
I don't like seeing people getting ripped regardless of their stupidity. I'm not out to save the world but I'll take 45 seconds out of my day to help out anyone.
You in the t-shirt business by chance

Micallef Ebay resale numbers, by damullae on Sept 21, 2007 7:50:22 GMT 1, Good work I say Ray, we all make mistakes and I would appreciate if an error I make in the future is picked up.
Hahaha, just remembered my first stock trade a few years back – I sold instead of brought!! Did not even own the thing to sell, luckily it did not go up in price in a hurry.

Micallef Ebay resale numbers, by ray on Sept 21, 2007 8:17:44 GMT 1, Thanks damu, Here's a funny one...
I bought Intel many moons ago for the first time and put in the symbol INT and hit buy. The next few days it tanked and when I went and had a peek online to see how much I was down I wasn't, I was up! INT is the symbol for some fuel company that boats pull up to, not Intel. It went up 3% in 2 days. My stupidity made me money and I learned a lesson ;D

Micallef Ebay resale numbers, by wildbill on Sept 21, 2007 9:26:42 GMT 1, Thats really misleading.

Hopefully the buyer has been warned

Completely agree - the ebay market is far too easy to manipulate. I have no doubt that we'll see (and probably already have seen) a fair amount of shilling and other dodgy practices affecting the perceived values of these Mic prints.

Micallef Ebay resale numbers, by Deleted on Sept 21, 2007 10:01:15 GMT 1, The buyer is going to be refunded (apparently). It was just a piss take on this "scene". I think It's quite funny and clever. I agree with verbal that the bidder is an idiot for bidding. There's a picutre of a t-shirt for fuck's sake. I wouldn't want anybody to get hurt, but a little shock to their system is a good thing.

Micallef Ebay resale numbers, by pentecle on Sept 21, 2007 12:20:49 GMT 1, Actually, the person selling the t-shirt misrepresented it. He called it Antony Micallef - Peacekeeper in the title (no mention of t-shirt) and a picture of the actual print instead of a t-shirt. He also cleverly listed items which were obviously t-shirts and said t-shirt in the title directly afterwards, to add to the confusion.
He may say he did it for a joke, but bet he would have kept the money if he could - scumbag in my opinion.

Micallef Ebay resale numbers, by ray on Sept 21, 2007 14:46:07 GMT 1, Wow..I see that in the other thread on here about the t-shirt, the seller gave out the winners name and what part of town he's from. He even has a few insults for him. Dude, you have a funny way of treating your customers, joke or no joke.
Most uncool.

However, the flip side is the buyer should read more carefully, so both are in the wrong!
You can never win eh.....

To suggest it's tough sh!t is madness IMO
