As far as I remember, that autoreviewer has been active for a while, but after fierce protests from just about everyone, it was referred to the eternal hunting grounds.

If an item was offered for sale and that item had not yet been assigned a catalog value, the catalog values were automatically calculated on the basis of the price of the shop. This can be seen in its history as a Catawiki autoreviewer.
This worked pretty well at first until smart people figured out how this functioned and started manipulating the system. This has been inactive for quite some time.

Just heard that 80% of Catawiki's list prices are grossly exaggerated (Gnagnagna). Am I way wrong?

Always do these kinds of comments well, just a pity that there is no acknowledgment of the source.

Last comment was a "trigger". Made to elicit comments. Please compare the catalog values on the basis of the auction results.

Nick.

No source reference is necessary.

I think you confuse the 'what-a-fool-gives-it' price with a list price that must be adjusted up or down at some point. The list price is not a daily price. In my view, daily prices are for fresh fish.

Gelieve aub op Catawiki geen verse vis aan te bieden aub.  Da's erover.

Een catalogusprijs is voor mij een vast gegeven dat fluctueert binnen bepaalde grenzen.  Je moet de top 10 en de min 10 eruit halen en dan ergens een gemiddelde gaan berekenen. Het is geen gemakkelijk gegeven.  Daarom stel ik het ook in vraag.  U moet zich daar niet toe aangevallen voelen.  Het is gewoon een moeilijk iets.

En zoals ik al eerder heb gesteld, we gaan er gewoon nooit uitgeraken, dus voor mij einde discussie.

Groet,

Nick.

ps. weet ook dat de mensen van Catawiki hun best doen.

Please do not offer fresh fish on Catawiki. That's about it.

For me, a list price is a fixed fact that fluctuates within certain limits. You have to take out the top 10 and the minus 10 and then calculate an average somewhere. It's not an easy thing. That's why I'm questioning it. You shouldn't feel attacked for that. It's just a hard thing.

And as I've said before, we're just never going to work it out, so end of discussion for me.

Greeting,

Nick.

PS. also know that the people at Catawiki are doing their best.

The catalog value will in any case have to be split up in the various countries. What's popular here doesn't mean it's popular in France, perhaps far from it.

But I already feel a solution is coming below.

You shouldn't feel attacked for that.

I really don't feel attacked, you know. If there's one on Catawiki who isn't interested in the prize circus at all, it's me. Just tried to explain that a list price doesn't necessarily have to change if someone happened to dump their wallet at an auction.

Bye Arco, that's difficult, that's + 10%.

Nick.

ik heb jaren lang intensief Boeken verkocht er was Bijv een Boek bij dat kocht ik voor een Apel en een Ei in voor Ca 5€  in N.L(deel 1 van een Duits Kookboek)

er waren Ca 20 Verzamelaars in D die dit Boek zochten dus de eerste 20 verkocht ik in D voor ca 80/100€ soms zelfs meer nadat deze ca 20 verzamelaars het boek in hun bezit hadden was het voorbij nu ben ik blij dat ik er noch 5/10€ voor krijg,

wat is dan de Cat prijs 10 of 90 ?

als een van deze verzamelaars denkt was leuk maar ik ga iets anders verzamelen en hij wil het verkopen maakt hij ca 80€ verlies niemand wil het meer hebben.

dus een Veiling is naar mijn mening een betere prijs indicatie als de Cat prijs

laatst een S&W geveild Cat waarde 60€ Geveildt voor 300€

Dus ZOWAT

P.S.

Veiling gewonnen 10€ Porto Kosten

In een stukje Huisvlijt Karton verpakt Porto opdruk 2€

is 400%+ aan Porto verdient (dat betekent Cata is provisie door de neus geboort)

Vanaf nu ga ik hier rood voor geven!

I have sold books intensively for years, for example, there was a book that I bought for an Apel and an Egg for about € 5 in NL (part 1 of a German cookbook)

there were about 20 Collectors in D who were looking for this Book so I sold the first 20 in D for about € 80/100 sometimes even more after these about 20 collectors had the book in their possession it was over now I'm glad I neither 5/10€ for get,

what is the Cat price 10 or 90?

if one of these collectors thinks it was fun but I'm going to collect something else and he wants to sell it, he will lose about € 80 no one wants it anymore.

so an Auction is in my opinion a better price indication than the Cat price

recently auctioned a S&W Cat value 60€ Auctioned for 300€

So ALMOST

Mrsg Baron

PS

Auction won 10€ Postage Costs

Packaged in a piece of Huisvlijt Cardboard Postage imprint 2€

is earning 400%+ from Porto (that means Cata is commission born through the nose)

From now on I'm going to give red for this!

Those postage costs are often over !! So now also my comic auction experience; had won two auctions at Stripwinkel Fantasia, went to collect them; was a bit of a drive, but it was more than worth it. A warm welcome in a beautiful store, coffee, nice chat, Rob who of course had to give an extra item on top (I deliberately called it an extra item here !!). In the store, it was feasting and feasting on items that he still had. lie down and hang. Rob just knows what the collector wants!

Was not possible to pick up "only the Send Option"

The first auction I won was also a Fantasia item. I also went to pick it up and had the same experience as a Swagman, got 2 extra items with my lot. Nice start of my Catawiki experiences :-)

Hi Hounddog,

congratulations on your acquisition. It is and will always be fun to pick up lots yourself. Initially, no shipping costs and often a nice chat and some extras on top. In this way you also develop a relationship of trust. If you see that it is good, you can start bidding again with confidence for the following things.

Should of course always be possible. For example, I live in Kortrijk and many things I buy are from sellers from the Netherlands. Then I have to take almost half a day to go and get comics. When it comes to comics, I get a lot explained here, but I think that's a bridge too far for my wife.

Nick.

Such a large buyer certainly has a post box in nl?

@Nick

The seller of the second lot I won was in Antwerp. I also picked it up myself (from Amsterdam) and combined it with a day out with the family at friends in Brussels. So you can see some of our countries again :-)

Are we going again tonight for hallucinatory bids for the Nero's ???

I don't know, Nero is Terra Incognita for me.

I didn't win anything this week because I thought the risk was a bit too high. If you put a strip for sale, of which you say that the spine has been (a little) restored, you should still give the details, otherwise I will drop out (at a certain amount). And that can be disadvantageous for buyer and / or seller.

And I am also starting to think about taking a second account, for my purchases then, seems better for everyone.

Yes, so,

951 € for Nero's son. Must be a record for this kind of comics. I personally like it a bit about it.

Nick.

I give it to Nero (and his sons and daughters).

If it had been Robert and Bertrand I would have had more problems :-)

I am also saving the blue series of Suske en Wiske together. Beautiful reprints (for me have the same atmosphere to read as the first editions) such as the lot 86 today. Made an offer, but the album is still very nice so the price will go up even further. Outside my budget, waiting for a slightly less copy will be my message.

Just in between; the series of S and W's that Adhemar is selling, dear!

Is that his own collection or has he taken over a collection of new states?

I can only get from such a collection dreams ...

Goodbye Jozef,

if I may give you one piece of advice. Rather buy one in very nice condition (reprint or first no importance) than two in a much lesser condition.

When I started collecting (when the animals were still talking!), I never expected to build a collection as it is today. Years have passed. But now, I am satisfied and have been able to realize what I never thought possible in my early days.

So, buy only beautiful things, wait for the moment, don't do stupid things and before you know it ... Wow!

Greetings,

Nick .

Ps. These are beautiful states, but not new states. There is an even clearer price difference.

Nick.

Koop er liever één in zeer mooie staat (herdruk of eerste geen belang) dan twee in een stuk mindere staat.

Tja, maar ik lees ze ook zo graag.

Ik heb één reeks in zéér mooie staat en ik heb daar het minst plezier van omdat ik die niet kan lezen (zonder ze waarschijnlijk te beschadigen).

De reeksen waar ik mindere staten van van heb, die komen de kast uit en worden gelezen.

In waarde is mijn verzameling dan ook niet erg hoog, maar ik heb wel héél leuke oude boekjes en liefst zo veel mogelijk.

't Is een wikken en wegen ...

Rather buy one in very nice condition (reprint or first one no importance) than two in a much lesser condition.

Well, I love reading them too.

I have one series in very nice condition and I enjoy it the least because I can't read it (without probably damaging it).

The series of which I have lesser states come out of the closet and are read.

My collection is therefore not very high in value, but I do have very nice old books and preferably as many as possible.

It's a trial and error...

Hello Jozef, can follow your train of thought completely. Indeed, it is a matter of deliberation. You'll figure it out.

Nick.

if I can give you one piece of advice. Rather buy one in very nice condition (reprint or first no importance) than two in a lesser condition.

Hi Nick,

A 'Blue series' first print in (Near) Mint condition is +500 Euro. My new refrigerator cost a little more. But as said there are a (very limited) number of comics that I am talking about.

And if you have only been collecting for about 10 years, you have to make choices.

Honni soit qui mal y pense;)
