Did these become the most valuable replicas ever made and we missed out ?

Remember, an “asking price” on eBay, is no indicator of the value of something. I could post a used cotton ball and ask 1.5 million if I wanted to, but that doesn’t mean sh**. Lol.

Some people just throw an astronomical amount out there, but have the “best offer” turned on, hoping someone will give them an offer that is still higher than the actual value of the item.
 
Yeah, I sold a brand new (box, plaque and all) Blade II glaive in 2022 for $400... that's the highest bid I got and I took it.
Expecting $33,000 for the same thing a year later is crazy, no offense to the seller.

When these glaives originally came out they didn't sell very well, so a large quantity of them ended up at SMKW and they were selling them for around $20 each. I bought a bunch and ended up selling them for a nice profit a few years later. I wish I would've held onto them considering the prices they sell for now. I of course kept a complete set for my collection.

Great point .I just picked up a Glaive for $30 and the first one I got at my local pawn shop for $150. Some person on ebay continues to list his 3 glaives for $499,000 a half million dollars. It is just childish when they are selling for $150.-$300
 
Sellers on eBay can see who visited their action, and then make them an offer.
I suspect it is a scheme such as that.

I've also heard of occasions where a seller has actually sold an item outside eBay and chooses to withdraw the auction by increasing the price to something that nobody would pay.

I have asked him If he thought they were originals and it was an error listing. The seller who is a nut took offense and threatened me . I of course thought the entire interaction was humorous .
 
I am always tempted to offer them the exact same item for a stupid price, but way lower than they are asking. This way they could duplicate their fantastic sale.:rolleyes:
