Anraku insanity!

http://page8.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/h130196159

Even for Anraku this is a totally insane price (assuming it's a legit bidder).

 

It was me. I sold my car for a toy Dont tell the wife.

 

can we get some photos of the bystanders that watch you ride it to work?

 

that was the reserve price. it didnt sell.

the high bid was a grand.

 

Wow what a joke of a reserve price. Thats almost as bad as the BIN $5,499 bronze kvp on E.

 

and some people think mother/maza chasers are crazy.....

 

Dude won a MIB one for Y100k and decides to open it and sell it w/ a reserve price of Y300k?
Or maybe it was the spare one he had lying around.

 

the shit's insane, either way.

 

Goga > Maza any day.
AA > Zollmen every day.

 

You should get that tattooed in old English across your stomach!

 

Joe, I didn't realize you liked those meetings so much.

 

AA

 

Oh man.
I'm getting slow witted lately.

 

Went over me too Joe. Ironically, there's a "Young AA Members" convention in town this weekend I just noticed.

 

I thought you never drank Joe!

 

Not anymore.
Now you know why.

 

How can you tell there was a reserve? Just curious. I was watching that auction and I saw it start at 40,000Y. It exponentially jumped from there...so, as opposed to ebay (which never reveals the reserve), YJA shows the reserve?

 

It never listed a high bidder.

 

What Josh said.

I bought a seemingly mint loose Bandai Frankenruge for much less than that reserve.

 

That seller is obviously testing the market

I paid a lot less than the high bid for my painted one in japan

 

And the market kind of proves itself. No one was stupid enough to bid it up to 150-200,000 yen.
Meanwhile some older Dakos were pulling in 80,000 yen or so.
So kinda not surprised at the final bid that didn't hit the reserve.
