Zzap Issue 1 going for....?

Post by **Iain** » Fri Apr 08, 2005 4:22 pm

Another issue 1 is on eBay , maybe we should take bets on how high it goes?

Although the zzap market isn't as strong as it was about a year ago.

I'd give a guess that it'll go for around £30 [revised down from £40, since he doesn't give much info on its condition etc.]

Anybody else care to guess? Only 2 hour before the auction's over!

I say it goes for a tenner.

A tenner? that's damn cheap, even if it was a tatty copy!

Looks like I won Mr. Zzapback!

It went for £22, which is £6 more than the previous issue 1's went for. Is the Zzap bubble building again?

p.s. was it cheating that half way through I decided I'd kinda like to win the issues and I started to bid on it? gave up around the £13 mark though. I only wanted another copy if it was bargin basement price

Duh!?
I say a tenner, and you start bidding up to 13!? Of course that's cheating!

Here's another one:

I say (again) this one goes for less than a tenner!

No, i started bidding at around £6 and quit after £13!

I guess it depends on how much someone is willing to pay at the time. I had a Slaine book on eBay twice and it never sold. I put it on for "one last time" last week and it sold within ten minutes as a ten-quid "buy it now". It's just the luck of the draw and all that.

Actually you might be right this time

I just noticed that he says the back cover is missing.

So what? As long as it's not the frontcover.

Btw, I bought my issue 1 off eBay for less than 50p (in a lot) it missed the entire cover. My printer at work does wonders though.

Oh yeah?! :-p Well about 2 years ago I got issues 1 to 36 for about £40 and for another £10 he threw in issues 10 to 30 of Crash or something silly like that! So there!

Silly boy! You read things here not hear them! Unless you use a text-sound translater, but I don't think your wife would approve of that AT ALL!

Anyway, better go back on topic before I ban you!

I see you have more messages written than me now... not good at all!!
