It'll be fun to watch for sure. I'm wondering if some of these will make a last minute jump. Seems like some of the prices are pretty stagnant. It's quiet......too quiet....

How do these Comiclink auctions normally go? As someone who comes from Ebay, I expect the price to jump 100% in the last 6 seconds, because that's when everyone's snipes go off. With these auctions people seemed to have bid realistic max bids fairly early.

You would think that people wait, and they do with comics, but for whatever reason game buyers seem to be getting their bids in earlier, on heritage at least. I expect maybe a little movement at the end but not a ton?

Well there's no automated sniping software specific to certifiedlink so I would expect only a few jumps instead of typical across the board last second jumps you'd see on eBay.

And no offense to certifiedlink but man that site is dated. Even more reason to get your bid in early because I wouldn't trust a second or two delay on that site interface. Better safe than sorry if you were on the fence for something.

It's certainly been criticized for being dated before, and I share that view but their team is great to deal with and the fees lower. Heritage has top of the line everything but the fees are higher. I think both houses are great.

Can someone shed some light on this particular auction for me?

http://www.certifiedlink.com/auct...

Why is this selling so high? It says in the listing it's a first edition but wouldn't an early edition be a 5-screw cart?

Does anyone know if the winning bids will be displayed after the auctions close?
or
Will they remove the listing after the auctions have been completed?

Heritage leaves their prices on the website. I do not see something similar for Certified Link

Well, for one it's not Rev-A, so this is likely a first release, but it's not a 5-screw. 5-screws aren't to uncommon for LoZ, so I guess what matters is the box. That's my guess, though. I wasn't aware if that was a rare title or not. Price seems high to me too, unless that first edition is legit hard to come by.

Regarding sustainability, short term, likely not sustainable. Long term? Absolutely it is. Don’t think there are that many out there, though I know a couple people have a lot.

Never thought the Mario would have been so much higher than the Stadium Events (I'm assuming people are going to try to snipe it later on in the auction). I get that it's like a super first edition of the game but, dude your spending $22k on Super Mario Bros. it says right in the auction description that 40 million of these exist. Maybe not 40 million of the NYC test market copies. You gotta love Mario something fierce to set down that amount of money. I'd rather have a NWC cart, but to each his own. Makes the world a fun place to live in.

edit: is the cart different from any other Joe Schmo SMB cart or is it just the box?

LMAO is that for real, 22K for a beat to shit copy of SMB? Is this due to the influx of comic book marks blowing money on shit they know nothing about?

I told y’all they don’t care for Saran Wrap. They only care about the actual item not whether it was sealed or not. I bet sealed has little to no premium anymore.

Got any of these for sale? Sell them to me. I also buy other NES Publisher inserts, and even GB/GBC, and SNES inserts too.

So what's a better condition CIB copy than that but with a shiny sticker worth? Because I bought one for $10 a few years ago. Also really have to question WATA's grading system if that ranks at a 6.0. That shit looks like a 2 or a 3 to me.
