What if one of us was to list a mint condition 100% complete Red Shadow ?

The buyer need never pay and the Shadow need never be sent, but just to see what the max would be if people kept on bidding !

i think we should all list 1 shad each then we each drop a large initial bid on each others auction say £30-£35 let him win on them all then bankrupt the fecker

Rarther than trying to guess the top price, could some one put a really stupidly high reserve for a :shadow: ? say £100+, just to see how high a price our guy's willing to pay?

It costs extra to put on a high reserve... I cant send a pic if you like Matt ?

dunno ! I have never used a reserve, only because I know it costs extra.

I usually start auctions at 99p and hope for the best !
